About this property

The Shack at Shelly - your beach oasis...

Enjoy picturesque views of West Shelly Beach whilst relaxing with a hot cuppa or a nice glass of award winning Tasmanian wine. For those that don't want to relax there is plenty to do with easy access to the beach or go for a short stroll to the restaurants along the waterfront track. There is something for the kids with a playground close by that caters for all ages.

We offer free NBN via WiFi if you choose to stay connected, or you need it to keep the kids occupied for a while!

There is nothing like the ambience and warmth of a wood heater during the cooler months however you also have the option of a heat pump for both the cooler and warmer months.

The main bedroom has a queen bed, second bedroom has a queen bed plus single bunks and the third bedroom has a single set of bunks plus a double bed.

The main bedroom has an all new ensuite that was added in December 2019 and the main bathroom was also totally renewed.

All of the creature comforts are provided for you to just enjoy your time away on holiday!

Beaches, restaurants, playground nearby

Orford offers a a couple of restaurants, a hotel with bottleshop, a well stocked IGA supermarket, a golf course, sensational beaches, a purpose built waterfront walking/riding track plus all of the nearby attractions such as Maria Island.

Well equipped in a great location
We couldn’t have had a better stay. Relaxing and homely just a short walk to beaches, rocks and walks. House is so well appointed and a pleasure to unwind and relax in. Was a truly restful stay.

Ideal retreat from the hustle and bustle.
My friends and I really appreciated the spaciousness and well appointed house. The views were peaceful and restful. All that we needed was supplied. The kitchen was great for meal prep. The lounge, bedrooms and bathrooms were laid out for comfort and relaxation. Would return in a heartbeat.

Wonderful home away from home
A perfect place to relax with the family for Easter. Great space and comfy beds with 2 bathrooms. In walking distance of beaches, parks and shops - a great location that worked really really well for our family over Easter :-)

Tranquil retreat
It was a lovely stay with newly renovated bathrooms, a big kitchen space and front room which would also suit families as well as couples. It’s also close to Maria island. However I noticed that another door at the front would not lock, only the front fly wire. So would feel more secure if this was fixed. I would also suggest putting a blind at the front door which was clear glass. The house had everything you would need for a comfortable stay and had beautiful scenery.
