Property information

Shell Cottage is a light-filled, spacious and modern two-bedroom holiday house, ideal for a serene visit to the Freycinet Peninsula for one or two couples or a small family. Fully self-contained, the property is tastefully finished with Tasmanian timber furniture, each bedroom with a Tasmanian oak queen bed and built in wardrobes. The stylish bathroom includes a large walk-in shower, heated floor and there is a separate toilet. Reverse cycle air-conditioning and a panel heater in each bedroom ensures a comfortable stay year round. The well-appointed, open plan kitchen, dining and lounge provides direct access to a covered, wrap-around deck.

The driveway allows for easy access to unpack either via the stairs or a ramp at the side of the house, and there is ample space to park a car or two and a boat. There is an outdoor shower to rinse after a visit to Sandpiper Beach, which is a short walk away. Coles Bay, the entrance to the Freycinet National Park and Wineglass Bay walking tracks, is a 5-minute drive away, and short drives take you to Friendly Beaches.
