About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Studio - Seclusion by the water with your own private beach.

In an epic location at the end of a very private road is a fully self- contained art studio designed by renowned Tasmanian architects Circa Morris Nunn . Beautiful and wild, historic and sensitive to its surrounds The Studio is surrounded by Pittwater Estuary and the Coal River and when you enter the building you will be immersed in a world of art.
This very private escape is accessed by a historical cutting which at the turn of the 20th century was a railway line. It is a remote hideaway for one or two, an escape where you can be sure of not seeing another person unless they are on a boat on the estuary. Here you can completely relax and unwind on your own private beach. It is an ideal place for a romantic getaway, reflection, a creative pursuit or to tackle that project you have had in mind. Here life slows and the act of relaxing becomes its own reward.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned apartment, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Magic

A wonderful little house in a perfect spot. So close to the water for fishing, peaceful and serene. House was very comfortable. Check in was easy and we had everything we needed (a couple more towels would have been ideal though). Beware if you're scared of spiders that we had quite a few huntsman visitors. We don't mind them so no bother to us and they were perfectly quiet and courteous housemates. The wood fire was divine and the heat pump kept upstairs toasty for sleeping. The bed was a bit too firm for us but they do say a firm mattress is better for bad backs. Penna is a lovely spot and we didn't leave the property for the first 2 days. Caught a heap of sized flat head which we were happy about as only seem to catch undersize in the north of the state. The ones we had to throw back were only just under 35cm. A few little school sharks which we haven't seen before too.

Incredible Location

Unique accommodation with wonderful facilities. We were blown away with the private location and waterfront views. At the same time being 15 mins from Richmond and 25 min drive to Hobart central. We hope to visit many more times!

A little slice of Nirvana

What a lovely cottage in a spectacular location! The Studio is everything we expected from the posting. Secluded, natural, eco and peaceful. We loved being here and waking and sleeping to the sounds of nature and surf. This is a very special place. The cottage was incredibly well stocked with everything you would need, including a well furnished chef’s kitchen. We would happily stay here again.

Absolute bliss

This property exceeded expectations. From the drive through the old railway cutting to the location right on the water and the interior where we had everything we could possible need, surrounded by intriguing artworks on every wall. We wished we could stay longer - a very enjoyable stay.

This property is absolute beach front. Decor is second to none with quality fittings throughout. Sunrise and sunsets are an additional surprise whilst sitting on the deck with your coffee/wine. Extremely well presented!
