Acton Cottages

Acton Cottages offer guests the opportunity to enjoy spacious tranquility in a parklike setting just fifteen minutes from the center of Hobart and ten minutes from Hobart Airport.

The two secluded Georgian cottages are fully self contained, featuring log fires and all standard amenities. The private courtyards or verandas have views across rolling pastures to sparkling Seven Mile Beach. Restaurants and most services are located just five minutes drive away.

Acton Cottages provide the perfect base from which to enjoy your touring of southern Tasmania. Return from your visit to historic Port Arthur to a cosy cottage that predates that famous settlement.

Acton Cottage

When featured on the lifestyle show Getaway, Catriona Rowntree said: Ïf you can't find romance here, Honey, then you just aint trying!"

Acton Cottage is a favourite for honeymooners and couples celebrating special occasions. Its sandstone and timber interiors reflect mellow highlights from the flickering log fire whilst the period bedroom is more akin to a manor house than a cottage.

Guests awaken to birdsong and a golden sunrise over Fredrick Henry Bay. They can enjoy a hearty breakfast in their private courtyard from the plentiful provisions and take a stroll around the park like gardens of the homestead prior to setting out on their day of sight seeing.

Acton Lodge

The Lodge has been prepared especially for two couples travelling together or for those who prefer seperate sleeping arrangements.

Decorated with a hunting lodge theme featuring a hint of Africa, the Lodge has two queen bedrooms and two bathrooms, the master having a double spa bath.

The spacious lounge room has a leather chesterfield and comfy arm chairs in front of the log fire. French doors open onto the front veranda with its views across formal box hedging to the bay beyond, whilst the rear veranda has barbecue facilites for evening dining.
