About this property

Modern Waterfront House at Susans Bay, Primrose

Stay in a 2018-built contemporary beach house with access to the beach from the backyard. It is located in Primrose Sands, a convenient half-way point between Hobart and many historic and natural attractions on the Tasman Peninsula, including Port Arthur and the Tasman National Park. Primrose Sands is the perfect base for visitors who want to explore south east Tasmania while enjoying picturesque country surrounds and a beach right on their doorstep.

The space
The house is a contemporary, spacious design completed in mid 2018. The house features lots of cosy, vintage furniture, a wood heater for toasty fires and a spacious balcony off the kitchen and living area. There are big picture windows upstairs and in each of the queen bedrooms, which look right out to the water and surrounding hills.

Children & Pets
- No charges for children 6-year old and younger
- Pets are allowed, but not in carpeted areas (bedrooms) and/or on furniture

Kitchen
The kitchen is fitted with modern appliances, including the necessities + dishwasher, microwave and espresso machine.

Bedrooms
the master bedroom includes a private deck and an ensuite with a bathtub. Both queen bedrooms and the master bedroom face the water with an amazing view. All bedrooms come with a heater and spare blankets.

Bathrooms
Both bathrooms are specious and offer light-heating. Toilets have the Japanese cover system with in-built bidet to be used if desired.

Outside
there is a spacious backyard area with a terrace and a barbecue for guests to use, and direct access down to Susans Bay beach. The yard is fenced so pets can run around and a kennel is provided. There's room in the driveway for up to three cars to park comfortably.

The Beach
Susans Bay is directly accessible from the backyard, with a short walk down a bush path to several access points. you can also access the sandy beach on the opposite end of the bay with just an easy 10-15 min walk, and while walking you will enjoy spectacular views of the water and surrounds. Susans Bay is sheltered and ideal for swimming, with water that's often at least a few degrees warmer than neighbouring Primrose Beach. Susan Bay beach and Primrose beach are opposite to each other so on a windy day one or the other will be nicely sheltered.

Amenities
linen and towels are supplied, as well as basic bath and cleaning products. We try to only use environmentally friendly products whenever we can.

Pets
Although we allow pets, they are not allowed inside the beach house. A cosy, large kennel is provided in the back garden for any puppy to use.

Environmental responsibility
We care a lot about protecting our beautiful environment, so whenever possible we choose natural and environmentally friendly products and tree-free toilet paper. The house has been furnished with many re-loved and vintage items. We have a tank to catch rainwater and we provide separate bins for recycling.

Interaction with guests
We don't live in the area, but will be available to contact by phone to assist should any problem arises during your stay.

Location
Primrose Sands is a peaceful and quiet beachside town near the Tasman Peninsula. Local amenities include an RSL and general store in Primrose, and grocery shops, bottle shops, pubs and cafes/restaurants in nearby suburbs. Primrose is a great mid-way point between the beautiful beaches and bushwalks of the Tasman Peninsula, and the cultural sites of Greater Hobart (some popular examples listed below).

Idyllic getaway spot
My family had a wonderful time at this property. Everything about it was perfect - the location is easily accessible from Hobart, the beautiful calm waters of Susan's Bay were great for children and adults alike, the house was pet friendly, and it had all the mod cons that make a house an easy place to relax. I highly recommend this property and the hosts. Best communication ever! Thank you for making it a perfect family holiday spot.

Fantastic well appointed property with water views
Perfectly clean with everything we needed, the house provided an excellent base to explore the Coal River Wineries and Tasman Peninsula. Limited facilities in Primrose Sands, but that was expected in such a quiet location. Owner communication prompt and detailed. Unfortunately weather prevented use of the outside fire pit, but otherwise a fantastic stay.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Welcome Easter gift on arrival. Plenty of room for 7 of us to enjoy ourselves and not be on top of each other. So much to do nearby. What more could we ask for.

Exceptional property beautifully designed and filled with elegant details.
A fabulous place to stay with beautiful views out across the waters of Primrose Sands. The house is amazing and has been designed with so many elegant features. The attention to detail is impressive with everything you need in the kitchen, beautifully designed bathrooms. The bedrooms are quite with really comfortable beds. The open living space upstairs is so impressive with original artworks. We had everything we needed and the owners we wonderful with support. This place provides opportunities to completely relax or venture out for day trips to Richmond, Dunally (the Lobster Shed), Port Arthur and supermarket shopping and berry picking at Sorrell. The attention to detail is what makes this place. Loved staying here.

This house is the ideal holiday experience!
The house was perfect-clean,comfortale and well organised- we had all the facilities we needed and more. The coffee machine was great! The view was amazing and having the beautiful beach as a sort of front garden was a definate bonus. The owners were very easy to communicate with and made the process really easy. If we visit Tasmania again we would want to stay here again!

What a wonderfull place
We came from Germany and startet our trip in Primrose Sands. I think there could not be a better place to start our holidays. The complete house is so clean an well equiped. We have felt very comfortable from the first moment.. The interior is very cozy and we missed absolutely nothing. When it was too cold outside in the evening we loved to sit behind the big panorama window and enjoyed the great view over the bay and listen and watch the kakadoos. Thank you Mimi for sharing this beautiful place with others. We highly recommend this place.

Great service, great location
We really enjoyed the location as it was close to Hobart and other sites on the Tasman Pennisula. We visited Port Arthur, Maria Island , the Tasmanian Devil Unzoo, and Mona and Salamanca Market over 5 days. All within easy drives. Mimi and Nasser were great owners with lots of help. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
