Wonderful home away from home!
We had a magical stay at Saltcotes! From the moment we set foot on the property we knew it was going to be the highlight of our Tasmanian trip! Not only gorgeous, but also comfortable with all the creature comforts you could ask for and more! All the bedrooms and bathrooms were beautifully appointed and the living area was fantastic with multiple huge lounge chairs to fit our whole party comfortably. The location is fantastic, just steps from the beach (which felt like a private beach most of the time!), and a great base from exploring Hobart and its surrounds. We loved the South Arm, with a great local Cafe, wonderful community markets and close to a great Tasmania grocer. Amazing communication from Frances who welcomed us on arrival and showed us around. We hope we have the opportunity to stay at this wonderful property again. Thank you for sharing it with us!

What a beautiful home and stunning location on the beach...serenity +...that is what it feels like from the moment you walk in. Exceptional attention to all necessities and some luxuries needed for a perfect holiday...kitchen was well equipped, even garden herbs to use, comfortable lounge and bedroom areas, modern bathrooms, fire with all the wood you need, and a hidden gem...a vinyl record player with excellent sound system. Neither we or our friends wanted to leave. Frances was an amazing host too...we hope to be back!!!! Cannot recommend this enough. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home away from home Frances and Henry

Incredible accommodation and stunning views to make a stay memorable
A big, spacious comfortable home with lots of thougtful details that make a stay memorable. Amazing views and direct access to the beach were just the beginning. The home had an actual chefs kitchen complete with butler pantry and an all important second fridge so ideal for a family get together for a celebration, loads of equipment and several dining areas, inside and al fresco. Numerous living areas and five comfortable bedrooms as well as three spacious bathrooms. Large living space with views and excess comfortable seating for a large group, no skimping on facilities either and we were told to use extra linen if needed and to help ourselves to anything from the kitchen garden. The host was welcoming, generous and a fantastic communicator. This is a seriously amazing property, highly recommended especially for large family gatherings or friends getting together.

Lovely
I stayed here with 6 friends and we had the best time. They thought of everything - especially in the kitchen, which had every imaginable utensil and good quality pots and pans and… well everything really! The house was clean, there was plenty of space for all of us, the fire had plenty of wood stacked and was roaring when we arrived. Amazing sound system and pool table provided much entertainment. We plan to come back next year! Thanks so much.

Everything we hoped it would be and more…
From the word go, Frances was a delight to deal with. Throughout, she was prompt, very polite and concise! Thanks to Google Maps we had no trouble driving around Tasmania for two weeks, and saved the best (accommodation) for last at Saltcotes Beach House. The photo’s only just do it justice as it’s not easy to capture the sunsets or quiet at dawn! Very highly recommended!!
