The historic ruins of Port Arthur's penal colony 35 minutes drive,Tasman Arch,Devil's Kitchen,Tessalated pavement & Pirates Bay are even closer at only 15 minutes drive away.
Fortescue Bay Beach rivals the world famous Wine Glass Bay as one of the worlds most beautiful beaches,and you can drive right to the waters edge.South of Port Arthur visit Australia's highest sea cliffs (over 1000 feet)& Tasman Island the turning point of the Sydney Hobart Yacht Race.
Your cosy beach house is so close to all these major attractions and yet is still only 5o mins from Hobart,40 mins from Hobart Airport And 50 minutes from the Historic Richmond Village.

A fisherman's paradise!

Eaglehawk Neck (15 min drive away) is Famous for its game fishing,tuna & marlin.why not charter a game boat & try your luck.
In fact right in front of Sommers Bay Beach House the fishing is that good that a huge fishing competition is held every February!
Why not help yourself to the mussles & oysters on the rocks near the Sommers Bay jetty literally only a stones throw from your beach house.
Sommers Bay beach is a beautiful child safe beach,at night try your luck with a flounder light & catch some tasty flounder for supper.

We stayed for a week long winter break, enjoying walks to the beach and cozy time indoors. It had everything we needed and we loved the community library across the road with books and dvds. We especially enjoyed the deck and secure side yard so our dog could join us.

Sommer Bay Beach House is exactly as shown online. The front deck as connected to a enclosed yard at the side of the house which is ideal for the four legged children in which to play. Great views and wants for nothing other than more guests.

Sommers Bay 2 night stay

The property is well located in a slightly elivated position towards the end of the road, so it was very quiet with very little traffic. The accommodation was clean and tidy. We enjoyed our stay and will likely come back for another visit.

Lovely holiday house.

The house had everything that you would expect in a holiday house. Also had a lovely view and was very quiet. The only downside was my fault as I didn’t realize it was so far from shops and restaurants which meant no ducking out for a quick meal! If I had realized that I probably would have booked something closer to facilities.

Slice of heaven

This wonderful cabin was the perfect place to explore the Tasman Peninsula. The host was wonderful giving us ideas of places to visit. The best part was the beautiful view of the water from the deck and the bedroom. Slept with the window open, breeze and sound of waves. Thanks for sharing. Deb and Bob Cailor Marblehead, Ohio USA

Sommers Bay is gorgeous. We booked this beach house when we saw the view from the deck. This modest house has everything needed for a relaxed and comfortable stay and was clean, warm, with well stocked kitchen draws. We’ll be booking again for a summer holiday.

Enjoyable stay

House was as advertised. Clean linens and plenty of room for 4 adults. It had everything we needed. Small amount of bench space for food storage and prep but we managed fine. Great community and access to east coast convict trail, beach with fishing jetty just over the road. Lovely people staying nearby loaned us kayaks which was a highlight, perfect spot for kayaks and fishing. I would recommend this property.
