About this property
Stewarts Bay Retreat - Port Arthur
Stewarts Bay is a prime, beachside location situated in Port Arthur on the Tasman Peninsula, approximately 90km from Hobart.
This cute and cosy family shack is the perfect home away from home. Fully self contained house with a large sheltered deck with BBQ and outdoor seating. Relax on the deck with glimpses of the water, whilst listening to the waves from the Bay, or watch the kids play in the front yard.
The house is centrally located. 2 minute walk to Stewarts Bay beach, 5 minute walk to Pennicott Wilderness Journeys departure point and Stewarts Bay Lodge, 10 minute walk to the Port Arthur Caravan Park, 10 minute walk to shops and cafes and 20 minute coastal walk to the Port Arthur Historic Site.
The Bay is exceptionally quiet and the perfect place to relax. There is so much to explore on the Peninsula: Port Arthur Historic Site, 3 Capes Walk, Pennicott Wilderness Tours, Tessellated Pavement, Doo Town, Eaglehawk Neck Blow Hole, Tasman Arch and Devils Kitchen, Remarkable Cave, Tassie Devil Unzoo, Port Arthur Lavender, White Beach, Nubeena, Roaring Beach and Salt Walter River. Plenty of dining options nearby.
