About this house rental
Derby s NEW premium holiday location, sleeping four in luxury.
Architecturally striking with hi-tech and stylish interior and a spectacular outlook.
Raked ceilings, timber floors, fast smart TV, Bose sound, fully equipped kitchen, two bedrooms and quality linen, stylish bathroom with heated Spanish tiles, large decks and garden, bike and luggage storage.
Perfect for MTBs, lake and river fishing, bush walking, fossicking, bird-watching, platypus spotting, simply reading a good book, or doing nothing.
All within metres of Main Street in the mountain village of Derby.
The townhouse-styled Shed stands alone. It looks very different, still a bit like the old shed it once was: inside it is high tech and exciting with glass everywhere, racked ceilings and timber floors.
The split level Shed is spacious at over 70sqm plus large outdoor entertaining decks. The lower level area includes a well equipped kitchen/dining area with all the mod cons.
The Shed is stylish and luxurious with leather armchairs and a large leather sofa with wonderful views everywhere, all opening onto a large wraparound deck with spectacular views.
A computer work bench with USB charging points and a Bluetooth Bose sound bar looks over the river into the mountain bush land; there is also FREE Wi-Fi and SmartTV.
On the upper level there are two bedrooms each with large built-ins. The queen bedroom has lovely river bush views and the second room has two single beds. All linen and doonas are high quality.
Even the walk in shower has its own viewing window looking across the river and mountains from within the striking bathroom with its heated Spanish floor tiles.
There is also a fully equipped laundry and the whole space is heated or cooled by a powerful Fujitsu reverse cycle pump.
Out back you have a large yard, garden table and your own private bike and luggage storage shed; private parking is available.
Feeling peckish? You can easily prepare a delicious meal in the Shed s fully equipped kitchen and dine-in with style; or enjoy a simple BBQ and the views on your private decks.
It is just a short stroll to Derby s bike shops, shuttle services, pubs and cafes.
Derby s historic Postmaster's has been recently renovated with the original Lodge and its Studio Apartment providing accommodation for families and groups, the just completed Shed is designed for up to four guests.
The Shed is all yours and has its own private entrance with a coded access.
There are sensor lights for the evenings.
Your secure bike and luggage storeroom is just off the back decks.
The Postmaster's has a large backyard and garden which may be shared from time to time with guests from the Lodge and Studio Apartment with minimum impact on your privacy.
Note: Children 12 years and older welcome
Note: No bikes inside. Racks and storage is provided. Bike wash is just across the road.
The township itself is the perfect spot not just for the famous Blue Derby MTB Trails but for bush walking, fishing and kayaking.
It is a great base for touring Tasmania s beautiful north eastern wineries, waterfalls, forests and beaches: for example it is just 90 minutes from the spectacular Bay of Fires or 60 minutes to the famous Pipers Brook Vineyard and Barnbougle golf course.
Derby is an ideal stopover if you are traveling to the beautiful East Coast from either Devonport or Launceston and is just an hour from St Helens.

It is as a comfortable house with great bathroom and lounge / kitchen area . Slightly disappointed with the warmth of the beds .

We had a great stay at the Shed in Derby. Lovely modern accommodation right in the centre of town with the bike tracks on our doorstep. The shed had everything we needed to make our stay as comfortable as possible including a lock up shed for bikes if needed. Right across the road from bike hire and shuttle places and a selection of good restaurants very near by. We will definitely be back 😊

A lovely space, perfectly positioned. I really enjoyed rolling down the trail along the river a couple of 100 Meyers to the shuttles in the morning and then popping out of 'Return to Sender's across the road from home in the afternoon.

Superb property in an amazing location on the river. We had a very enjoyable stay. Welcoming and friendly hosts who gave us very helpful information about the property, town of derby and local restaurants ahead of our stay. We would definitely stay at this property again

…..actually not just mountain bikers nirvana. This is a gorgeous place, kitted out with all that you need to enjoy the food, shops and the chilled out atmosphere of Derby. Great location over looking the river and hills.
We booked this stay 3 years ago due to Covid restrictions and grateful that Grant held our booking open. Well worth the wait. Thanks for helping make our Derby so memorable.

Lovely quiet place to stay
We stayed for a week in the shed and found it a lovely space to work and wind down in. The birds visited us daily and it was very quiet and peaceful. We did have a lot of rain but found it was equipped well enough to dry all our stuff. The large windows do look over the public path and because of the striking design, everyone looks in so be prepared for that. The blinds are also transparent at night so it’s not as private as it feels.

Great spot and cabin.
The 2nd time I have stayed here and 2 years on it's still as good as last time. Lovely clean, warm and modern cabin with a view over the river and at the gateway to the Mt bike trails.
The owner Grant is fantastic as well, always accomodating and doing what he can to make your stay as good as possible.
I will look forward to staying here next time I'm down there as well.

Upper end Derby
Great 2 bedroom modern place on the banks of the river, next door to bike washing stand and center of town. Place to lock up bikes, air pumps provided. Clean and tidy with well appointed furniture. Only thing missing was fresh ground coffee! (loaf of fresh bread and bottle of wine provided). highly recommended

Beautiful location and modern
Really well equipped. Some simple directions for the induction cooktop would be great . We have a cooktop at home but we found it difficult to use..

The best accommodation in Derby
The Shed is easily the best accommodation in Derby.
Positioned in the heart of town overlooking the river, designed to take in the beautiful environment and built to facilitate privacy and warmth when required.
Everything has been thought of, from great communication to ease of gaining access, not to mention the lovely (and very comfortable) furniture and appliances.

Great little shack!
This is a very nice place to stay in Derby, the living area is fabulous, being all open with a great outlook over the river. Also great are the kitchen area, modern bathroom/ laundry and comfortable bedrooms.
Grant is really awesome to deal with and super communicative and helpful on all matters of the stay.
So many positives about this place, from the location, bike shed, front deck, thoughtful amenities, parking and overall comfort, only negative is if you’re unlucky to be there when it’s raining, as there are no undercover areas to clean yourself up after a wet and muddy ride. But that’s it! I’d certainly recommend staying here and would stay again in a heart beat.

Great spot in the middle of Derby
What a lovely home away from home. A beautiful brand new apartment, very clean and nicely laid out. Even on a cold winter’s day, the big north facing windows warmed the whole house up. It was the perfect size for a couple and 2 kids, and we were able to walk or ride everywhere. The kitchen was adequately equipped, although a toastie maker would be a nice addition to make it even better! Heaps of books, magazines and games- great for a rainy day. We enjoyed watching the world go by. On the deck. We’d stay there again next time we’re in Derby for sure. Graeme was a super communicator- thanks for your hospitality.
