Your hosts are Julie and Jason, a married couple who live locally. On any given day, you’ll find Julie in the office, managing administration and overseeing that guests have a memorable trip. Jason is the photographer and maintenance hero. Their operations manager, Emma, corresponds with guests and organizes the housekeeping teams.

Step inside and you’ll find a home that blends classic heritage features with modern living. Original convict brickwork, timber floors, and an old decorative fireplace gives the space warmth and history, while the interiors are bright, thoughtfully furnished and full of natural light. The two comfortable bedrooms are complemented by a modern bathroom with a walk-in shower and full-sized bath. The front lounge is a cosy place to unwind after a day of exploring, and at the rear of the cottage a sun-filled living and dining area opens through French doors to a private courtyard and garden - a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee or a glass of Tasmanian wine in the evening. The smart, light-filled kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare meals at home, and the layout makes it easy to enjoy time together whether you’re cooking, relaxing or dining. The cottage is designed to comfortably accommodate up to five guests, with a queen bedroom and a twin bedroom (2 singles) plus a trundle bed (also a single). From this central location you can walk almost anywhere in Hobart - wander to the waterfront, browse the Salamanca Market, explore the galleries and cafés of Battery Point, or stroll through the city’s historic streets. Despite being so close to everything, the cottage remains a quiet retreat thanks to its double-glazed bedroom windows and thick walls typical of its heritage. The home is fully equipped with essentials including fresh towels, toiletries, free Wi-Fi and laundry facilities. While on-site parking is limited due to the central location, we’re happy to suggest the best nearby options if you’re travelling with a car. Experience Hobart from a home that’s as full of character as the city itself - a place where history, comfort, and convenience come together. Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, this charming heritage cottage offers everything you need for a relaxed and memorable visit. No parking included.
