Boltons Beach, Little Swanport

Wind Song Bed and Breakfast offers luxurious cottage accommodation on Tasmania's east coast. It is located on a 220-hectare farm at Little Swanport, a 90-minute drive from Hobart airport. Wind Song has a choice of two cottages. The Lodge is a spacious, one-bedroom unit with a fully-equipped kitchen, bathroom and large sitting room with an open fire. The queen-size bedroom has views of the Freycinet Peninsula and Little Swanport River estuary. The smaller Garden Suite has a double bedroom, a separate bathroom, a small sitting room and tea and coffee-making facilities. Continental breakfast provisions are included in both cottages and evening meals can be provided by prior arrangement. A fold-out sofa bed is also included in both the Lodge and Garden Suite. You can also take self-guided walks in the private forest reserve; guided walks can also be arranged on request. Nearby attractions include the Freycinet and Maria Island national parks, Wielangta Forest and east coast beaches. Wind Song Bed and Breakfast also hosts artist-in-residence programs and a variety of workshops throughout the year. These include felt making, paper making, fencing and land management, and basket making with native fibre.

Set on Lisdillon Vineyard and sheep farm, this mid-1800s cottage has two large bedrooms, a bathroom and a spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living area in the main section of the house. A huge garden with stunning views of the Freycinet and Maria and Schouten Islands. Explore 5km of private coastline with its pristine white sand and take a dip in Lisdillon's private river.

Thalia Haven is set on a private 130-acre peninsula surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of Great Oyster Bay. Five kilometres of secluded coastline include your own exclusive golden-sand beach. Accommodation is in four stone cottages clustered around olive-tree courtyards on the ocean's edge. The residence is a showcase of self-reliance: your water, electricity, and warmth are drawn from Thalia's land, breezes, and sunshine. Rustic, indeed, yet with the comforts you need to relax, enjoy, and explore. Awake to the sound of the sea, as the rising sun's rays play on the Hazards of Freycinet. Rock-hop and wander on your beach. Prepare a gourmet extravaganza in your professionally equipped kitchen. Relax by a roaring fire or under the stars in the outdoor bath. Thalia's four buildings have beds for ten people. Your group will find ample room to cook, eat, and play together. There are cosy open fireplaces in the dining and living rooms. The arrangement of bedrooms offers space to be together - or apart. And you are ideally located to take advantage of all the East Coast offers: 80 km from Hobart airport, with Wineglass Bay, Bicheno, Maria Island, and the East Coast wineries, all day trips from Thalia.
