The Salty Dog
As seen on Ch7 Morning Sunrise, House&Garden, Inside Out, Homes to Love Au, My Favourite Stays Au & NZ, Stayawhile magazines and Sommerhusmagasinet (Europe) The smell of salt air, the sound of water lapping, the sun glinting off ripples that surround you...a feeling of peace and the world left behind. The Salty Dog is a space that is both cosy and open to the water, a wooden boathouse for two that invites you to relax and just 'be', to go off grid and reconnect with mother nature at her best.

The Little Black Loft, South Golden Beach.
Inspired by tiny homes all over the world, this 30m2 space has been architecturally designed to make you feel cosy and comfy at anytime of year. Enjoy a 30sec walk to the beach, local coffee or food, or snuggle up in front of the fireplace in those colder months. Suitable for a couple (sorry no kids) It’s a loft, so the bedroom area has ladder like steps and a low roof. But it all adds to the charm. Enjoy sitting in the tree tops and watching the world go by in our little beachside town.

Dolphin Sands is a beautiful beach and offers endless walking and swimming opportunities. Swansea is a 30 minute walk by beach.

Captain's Rest, Tasmania's Most Sought-After Stay
There are stays that fill time and stays that change time—Captain's Rest belongs firmly in the second category. This historic fisherman's cabin sits cozily in the Lettes Bay Shack Village, meters from Macquarie Harbour. Framed by climbing roses and wisteria, here, time moves to the rhythm of tides while dolphin pods surface just beyond windows designed for watching the world unfold at its own perfect pace.
