About this cottage rental
In these harsh days of Covid-19, we want to share our space with people who need a relaxing beachside break.
We love staying at our two-bedroom beach shack at White Beach, a two kilometre stretch of white sand edging a turquoise bay, shallow and calm, excellent for swimming and family water fun. The beach is pristine, there are birds everywhere, the sky is always changing, as is the light on the hills.
Did you know you can see Mt Wellington in Hobart from the beach?
Your access to the beach will take less than a minute, depending on whether you take one of the paths leading to the beach directly across from the house, or choose to walk to the pathway at the bridge (2 minutes away).
The main bedroom and living area have beach views, all day, every day.
The kitchen is well equipped with crockery and cutlery, appliances and gadgets. You can cook up a wonderful meal with everything you need on hand. DO use the dishwasher as it saves on water. (The house runs on tank water, so in summer, please keep this in mind.)
A selection of good glassware will allow you to accompany your meals with whatever beverage takes your fancy.
There is a leaf teapot and a ground coffee pot, as no one can begin a day without one or the other.
The dining table and six chairs make dinner special.
The deck has a six-seater table and six deck chairs (stored in the shed).
There is a gas-fired BBQ and an umbrella for you to use, as well.
The sitting area is very comfy - light-filled all year round from the large windows. There is a couch begging for afternoon nappers, a TV and DVD/CD player. There are books, movies, music and games for your pleasure.
Light the fire in winter. Be careful though to not overfill, as the house heats very quickly.
The main bedroom has a queen-size bed fitted with cotton sheets. Cotton towels are provided.
The second bedroom has a single bed and a bunk, also fitted with cotton sheets.
A spacious shower, separate toilet and washing machine plus iron etc are off the sitting area.
The house is connected to the NBN and enjoys fast WIFI.
If you like fishing, there are some rods in the shed and a tackle box.
Pademelons, bandicoots and possums visit during the night. Red-breasted robins, blue wrens and other birds visit doing the day.
The house is located about 12 kms of Port Arthur and the McHenry whiskey and gin distillery, a little further to the Lavender Farm, and a stunningly beautiful 20-minute drive through farmland and forest to the Un-Zoo. A little further on is Eaglehawk Neck where history and coastline meet. Take advantage of the many walks - short and long - that are in this area, as well as apprising yourself of the brutal First Nations and convict histories.

Best equipped house we’ve stayed in, and the best shower! Decking is perfect for relaxing and wasting a few hours with a book in the sun. Good base for sightseeing.

We had a relaxing week staying at this cosy cottage. This is our second visit. It has everything we needed to be self-contained but is also close to great cafes and eating places. This views and outlook are beautiful with a lovely bush setting to enjoy the local birdlife.
There is some road noise but as this is a quiet area it didn't interrupt our visit. There is no heat pump but the firebox keeps things cosy warm on a cold day.
A five minute walk to beautiful White Beach which is great for walking, swimming and boating.
It's a great place to enjoy all that the Tasman Peninsular and the Port Arthur region has to offer. We highly recommend it.

During our stay, I was constantly reminded of our honeymoon. My husband loved waking up to the sound of birds singing and the waves rolling in. The house is heated by a log burner that was already set up for us; we just needed to light a match. The furnishings were very comfortable, as was all the outdoor furniture, including a hammock on the front veranda. Everything had been done to ensure a comfortable and peaceful stay for both couples and families.
In the morning, we enjoyed lovely walks along the beach, feeling the sand between our toes, collecting shells, and planning our day's activities. After dinner, we would take another leisurely and romantic stroll along the beach in the moonlight. It was truly a wonderful experience.
To coin a phrase, "I'll be back"

My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights with my son and his girlfriend. We loved the place! It was really comfortable for relaxing in the evenings, and we found everything we needed to cook meals and keep ourselves entertained. There was plenty of wood, and once we got the hang of the woodburner, we kept ourselves warm and cosy, despite the rain and cold.
White Beach is a really friendly area, and with amazing walks and good shops nearby, it's a great place for a holiday.

Quite peaceful location with beautiful views
The area was very quiet, with great views across the bay and easy access to the beaches. Not to far from the National Parks and had several areas of interest such as Port Arthur and the Devils Kitchen close by.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Short Stay
We throughly enjoyed our stay at their property, unfortunately on the second night the power went out for all of white beach so that dulled our trip a bit, but the house is well stacked with things to keep you busy

A slice of paradise
This property is comfortable, cosy and characterful. You immediately feel at ease and relaxed upon arrival as the house has everything you need for your stay. The views from the house are incredibly beautiful and you simply need to cross the road to get to the beach. This is a great place to get away from it all and totally relax. A very special part of the world and the hosts are great to communicate with also.

Cottage White Beach
Nice cottage. Would have been better if front door had fly screen or one of the large window had a fly screen so could have been left open for fresh air and keep flies and mozzies out. Otherwise cottage was great.

Lovely Views and location
Cottage had views over White Beach, through the trees. Lovely to sit on the deck and watch all the birds in the vicinity. Kookaburra is a regular visitor but there are so many more. Kitchen is well equipped but if you want to eat out Inspired Pasta and Pizza in Nubeena can be recommended. A great relaxing place to stay with easy driving to the highlights of the Tasman Peninsula

We had a great time in White Beach, what a beautiful spot.

We would stay again and highly recommend Wedge Bay Retreat.
