SLOW STAYS

Only one hour from Hobart and overlooking the dramatic scenes of Pirates Bay, coastal cabin-life will have you hooked at this charming 1970s beach shack. Soak in the sound of birdsong and soft waves lapping against the rocky shore as you hideout within the comforts of this lovingly restored home. Exhale in the welcoming lounge area fit with log fire, big cosy armchairs, a deck for sunrise viewing and large windows which frame expansive ocean views. Suitable for couples, small families or even the solo traveller, there’s plenty to do nearby – think surfing, Ecoboat tours to Port Arthur, exploring the Remarkable Caves, and wine tasting – and if you’re very lucky, you might just catch a glimpse of the Aurora Australis, right from the comfort of your couch.
