About this property

Great accommodation. Full bath, Quiet area. House to yourself & close beaches.

Lovely little house in a very quiet part of Swansea.

There is a small back yard so some parking for you car .
This is a pet friendly property so you can bring your fury friends along. Please pick up after them and make sure they don't annoy the neighbors. Like I mentioned earlier it is a very quiet street.
There is a small fenced back yard so a little parking for your car. But a good area for your dog.

We have small ( Container) bungalow at the rear of the property. we stay there from time to time, but you will have total privacy in the house.

Very comfortable house with everything you need
Although it is an older style house, it is a very comfortable and self contained. Access was good and it is a quiet suburb very close to a beach. No internet provided but mobile coverage was good on Optus and fair on Telstra so internet hotspots worked well. Owner communicated well with us before our arrival.

Very comfortable house on a great location
This was a very enjoyable stay. The house is big, very comfortable, with every amenity you could wish for, including a big fridge/freezer and a modern laundry machine.Ian is a very nice host, ready to help and give advise when needed.

Tranquillity
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ian's peaceful. Just the getaway we were after. The nearby beaches and easy walking streets were perfect for our daily outings. The cottage is clean and has all the amenities - the coffee machine and smoothie blender were much appreciated! As was the suitability of the house for my daughter and little dog. Highly recommend Ian and his cottage for your next getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Ian Casey

Host profile image
My wife Jan and I are local Tasmanians.
I was born and raised in Hobart and Jan is a country girl from Oatlands. A farming community in the Tasmanian Midlands.

We have stayed in Swansea as a holiday destination now for nearly twenty year. We just cant get enough of it...

The scenery is second to none. There are a lot of facilities in and around town:
The out door gym, just off the main road over the bridge as you approach Swansea from Hobart. This is a council initiative - do a circuit.
There is a Golf course on the point. If you don't have any clubs and you would like a hit around there are clubs available from out side the club house. Free to use, balls included and Tees. Doesn't get better than that.!!!Oh you still have your green fees...

Want to see some wild life? Black Cockatoos, Native hens, Parrots, Wattle birds, Magpies and many more feathered fledglings. We have a Sea Eagle that patrols the beach and can be seen at the end of the street at about 4 Pm some times. Get down to any of the beaches in the evening and see the local Penguins returning from a days fishing. You will also see many varieties of sore birds.

Why they chose this property

This is the best budget accommodation on the coast.

Clean and quiet. Please read the reviews. It is priced low to give all couples a chance to enjoy the area.

What makes this property unique

A time to chill out. Enjoy walks to the 4 beaches within 500 meters. Wild life, Oyster catchers, Native plovers, Sea Eagles, Native Magpies and not to forget the tiny Fairy Wrens popping about in the yard, these little guys really like the area around the house.
