The Boat House is one of just two properties located on ‘The Peninsula’ in southeast Tasmania. The Peninsula occupies some 250 acres on Esperance Point, locally known as ‘Blubber Head’, including a 50-acre Crown Reserve. The property commands 360-degree views encompassing sweeping water vistas across the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, to the Huon River and Bruny Island in the east and across the beautiful Port Esperance Bay to the snow-capped mountains of the Hartz Range and the South West Wilderness Reserve.
The closest major airport is Hobart Airport, approximately 1-hour 30-minutes’ drive away.
Rekindle the romance in this luxurious retreat just for two. Hideaway in your king size bedroom with decadent bathroom and feel right at home in your contemporary lounge and dining area with stunning water views. A hot tub on the balcony is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of sparkling wine while soaking up the ambience. Other amenities include large flat screen TV and DVD player, iPod doc, wireless broadband internet access, private BBQ and more.
Your fully self-contained gourmet kitchen comes with everything you need to cook up a romantic dinner for two. But, if you would prefer someone else to do the hard work, why not request a gourmet Tasmanian dinner platter or venture into town for an evening out? Depending on the night of the week, Post Office 6985 in Dover and Kermandie in Port Huon both serve up delicious local fare.
At the Boat House, you have over 250 acres of wilderness and waterfront to explore. A newly completed walking track takes you through a range of habitats from dry sclerophyll forest and button grass heathland to tea tree wetlands and rocky shore platforms. As you walk, keep your eyes peeled for wildlife including Tasmanian devils, bandicoots, wallabies, echidnas and wombats as well as over 70 species of bird including the endangered Swift Parrot.
When you’re ready, The Peninsula offers a range of activities and experience to suit every traveller. Head underground to discover the secrets of Hastings Caves. Get the ultimate bird’s eye view on the Tahune Airwalk. Watch the sunset over the water on a cruise of Dover Bay and Port Esperance. The list goes on!
