Such a wonderful place to make happy family memories!

I booked this trip as a family getaway for my husband, his siblings, his mum, myself and our son as hubby was celebrating his 50th birthday. Although hubby, our son and I have travelled to Tassie scores of times over the past 25 years, most of the rest of the group had not been to Tasmania so there was a lot of pressure on me to have picked a property that suited everyone from 16 to 80 years of age! Well, we could have not been happier with our choice. It was the most cosy, well presented cottage with amazing views and literally footsteps from the main street shops and a great pub (with Gin tasting room) immediately across the street. Even though we visited during a heatwave, the nights were cool enough to have the fire pit going so we could sit outside and enjoy the stars. The bonus was the group of girls at the house immediately next door were also celebrating a 50th birthday so we chatted and shared cake & candles! The beds were super comfy (& I'm fussy), the rooms tastefully decorated and the linen top notch! Crisp white sheets and fluffy Sheridan towels! Plus there was just the most amazing cottage garden (we are a family of gardeners) full of succulents, the most beautiful geraniums and tomatoes for our breakfast. Only things to note with a bigger party; there is only 1 shower so just be organised with timing (another loo available so no issue there) and the dining room is too tight for 8, but we spent our time outside on the deck anyway. Still10/10!

Touring around

Great location, and the home has been done up nicely. That deck overlooking the water is just awesome. So relaxing sitting out there watching life go by.

Delightful cottage

Stunning position by the water, close to shops, pub & delightful restaurant. Interesting decorative touches in the rooms, though drawers rather than artificial palm tree in main bedroom would be more practical.

Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024

About the host

Hosted by Janmaree

After 27 years of hairdressing and working to the clock, I set off on an adventure, which lead to 10 years of living in the tropics where I helped renovate and manage holiday villas.
Covid, changed all that and I returned home to beloved Tasmania.
I had owned the cottage for many years, just waiting for the right moment and inspiration to "do something with it"
I just love creating gorgeous and comfortable spaces, filling them with energy and making a haven for people to comfortably relax.
I understand the need for people "get away, unwind & switch off.
Over the years I have checked in stressed individuals, always such a rush to pack and get organised to go on holidays, at the end of their visit, I have checked out the most relaxed people who look like the weight of the world has been lifted.
That is what I have achieved at York Cove Cottage 1870.
Not just another BnB,
YCC 1870 a LIFE STYLE DESTINATION!
2024 York Cove Boat House NOW OPEN next door. 2 Great choices of absolute waterfont accommodation.

Why they chose this property

Built in 1870 as a workman cottage for the Telegraph Cable that joined Tasmania to Mainland Australia.
The original cottage was 2 bedrooms, with 3 fire places.
The chimney that stands in the kitchen was once on the outside of the house. LOOK at the wooden door step as you walk from the kitchen to the living room, it is worn from 150 years of foot steps.
The cottage offers spacious bedrooms, with water views from each room.
Cosy nights by the fire, and all the joy that waterfront living offers... Walks, bike track, pelicans, fishing, fresh lifestyle, beautiful sunsets across the bay and sunrises over Mt George .
Every moment of the day is a changing landscape. Boats, Birds, fishermen, people walking and pickniching... Make sure you have a photo with the giant waterfront statues, Sammy the Seal and George the Pelican.
Sunrises over York Cove and sets over the Tamar River, the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

Super Cosy, Reverse cycle Aircon as well as indoor wood heater
Fire pot for nights under the stars.
Electric Blankets for the winter, fans and air conditioning for the summer
Direct water front access and a 180 degree views from Mt. George to the Tamar River.
Enjoy both sunrise and sunset.
2 mins walk from shops, supermarkets, restaurants and the Bottle shop.
Sink in to King Koil Pillow Top Mattresses and wrap your self in quality linen.
Put your feet up on the sofa, the cottage is made to be lived in...
