Located on the picturesque Esperance Coast of the Huon Valley, Little Roaring Beach Shack is a cosy retreat equipped with everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Snuggle in front of a fire, take in the sounds of the ocean as you enjoy a warm outdoor bath with views to the surrounding valleys, or stroll down to the beach amongst charming old Tasmanian shacks. Your property An ideal seaside escape for : \*Retirees, couples or a small family looking for peace, nature and a quiet rewind. \*Adventurers on their lap from the mainland \*Weekenders from Hobart. \*Eco-conscious travellers and wellness seekers \*Fishing and boating enthusiasts \*Pre Antarctic deployment "sun before the snow" vacation. Soak up the serene beauty of Tasmania's Far South in this light filled 2-bedroom coastal retreat overlooking the bay. Only a short drive from the quiet seaside town of Dover, you can wake up to sea breezes, cook up local seafood on the BBQ, or curl up by the fireplace after a day of exploring Hastings Caves or Southport beaches. It is only a short stroll to the beach and perfectly suited for solo travellers, couples or small families. It has one master bedroom with a queen bed and built-in cupboards, and a study with a double bed. Please note that the second bedroom is very small and better suited for singles or kids, but can sleep 4 at a push. With an open plan kitchen, the lounge opens up to the deck, where you can sit back and soak up the surroundings. Guest Access You will have the entire property to yourself. Interaction with guests We don't live locally, so won't be around in person, but feel free contact us with anything you need! Other details to note The kitchen is fully equipped with a stovetop, fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster, cookware, espresso machine & plunger. You can get any nibbles or food supplies from the local IGA. Pets are welcome - but please note the property is not fenced. Also, access to the house is up a steep driveway, but the magnificent view makes up for it! Neighbourhood Description The shack overlooks Little Roaring Beach, with Bruny Island in the distance, and is a 5-minute drive to the picturesque village of Dover. It’s an ideal base for exploring the Huon Valley and a host of walking tracks to lakes, lagoons, waterfalls and mountains. You can also head underground at Hastings Cave and bathe in thermal springs. Some of our favourite nearby spots to visit are: Hartz Mountain National Park, Tahune Air Walk and Cockle Creek. Getting around The shack is located a little over an hour from Hobart, in the remote Roaring Bay. There is no public transport available, so you will need a car to get around. We have plenty of parking on site. Please note that access to the property is up a steep driveway. We recommend stopping in Huonville or Dover to get any supplies you may need.
