About this property

This spacious federation cottage is situated in the heart of one of Tasmanias most popular fishing towns.

Just a 10 minutes walk to shops and restaurants or a two minute drive to launch the boat.

An extended stay allows time to explore nearby beaches and sandunes, admire the white sands and orange coloured rocks at the famous Bay of Fires, take a trip to waterfalls at Pyengana or take a walk in The Blue Tiers Mountain.

Several bike tracks have been built nearby which are a highlight in the area.
These tracks vary in gradients therefore attracting both family groups and thrill seekers.

After big day out you return to the tranquil setting of this large 4 bedroom home, large enough to accommodate and entertain family members and friends.

Great cottage in good location

Cottage was extremely spacious and very light inside. Location meant it was an easy walk into town to get something to eat but cottage was very well equipped so cooking was easy. Nice to have some outside space too. Really enjoyed our week long stay.
