Welcome to the real Tasmania, where you can experience wildlife, wilderness and waterfalls .

Giants’ Table and Cottages offers comfortable self-contained cottage accommodation in the little mountain town of  Maydena, situated in the beautiful Derwent Valley region of South West Tasmania.

We are proudly family owned and operated and are famous for our comfortable beds, cosy atmosphere and delicious food.

This is the ideal point for your stopover between Strahan and Hobart, we have 8 cottages available – including 2 spa suites and an excellent restaurant open in the summer.

There is a 1 bedroom spa, Chagford Cottage; a 2 bedroom spa, Chudleigh Cottage; Two 2 bedroom cottages, Sticklepath and Stiniel;  three 4 bedroom houses, Throwleigh, Gidleigh and the upmarket Hittisleigh and a 5 bedroom house, Drewsteignton.

There’s mountains to do in Maydena!

We are situated on the edge of the South West World Heritage Area, ten minutes drive from Mount Field National Park with its wonderful Russell Falls and close to the entrance to the Styx Valley of the Giants (hence our name), yet still only just over an hour from Hobart.

Experience the lush temperate rainforest, spectacular mountains, the tallest trees in the world, untouched wilderness and an array of fantastic wildlife right on the doorstep.

The wonderful new movie, “The Hunter” which was released in October 2011 showcases magnificently the incredible landscapes of this amazing area. Come and see where Willem Dafoe hunted for the last Tasmanian Tiger! www.thehuntermovie.com
