About this property
Relax and indulge in a country garden at Franklin, Tasmania
Cute one bedroom cottage, perfect for couples or singles. Surrounded by a permaculture country garden on one side and native bushland on the other, you will feel close to nature. River access is 5 minutes drive to the Franklin foreshore. Rustic restoration of this rural cottage has created a peaceful escape from city stresses. Just 45 minutes form Hobart, in the Huon Valley, this is a great place to just relax or use as a base to explore the wineries, national parks and waterways of southern Tasmania.
