About this property

The Summer Shack - Freycinet Holiday Houses

A laid-back coastal retreat with unforgettable views.



The Summer Shack is all about slowing down, soaking up the scenery and making lasting memories by the sea. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Coles Bay, this charming coastal cottage enjoys magnificent views of the iconic Hazards mountain range and offers a relaxed base for exploring the spectacular Freycinet Peninsula.



Step inside and discover a welcoming space where comfort and simplicity come together. Filled with natural light and a relaxed beach-house feel, The Summer Shack is ideal for couples, families or friends looking for an authentic Tasmanian getaway.



The home features two spacious bedrooms, including a main bedroom where you can wake to views of the Hazards. After a day exploring the coastline, settle into the cozy lounge with a good book, or gather around the well-equipped kitchen to prepare a leisurely meal. Step out onto the balcony to enjoy breakfast in the morning sunshine or unwind with a glass of local Tasmanian wine as the mountains glow in the evening light.



Perfectly located, The Summer Shack places the very best of Coles Bay within easy walking distance. Wander to the local tavern, cafés, bakery, convenience store and the famous Coles Bay Ice Creamery, or stroll to nearby beaches and the Wineglass Bay Cruises departure point.



Freycinet National Park is only a short drive away, offering unforgettable experiences including the Wineglass Bay walking track, Cape Tourville Lighthouse and some of Tasmania's most spectacular coastal scenery.

After a day of adventure, return to the comfort of your holiday home where everything has been thoughtfully provided for a relaxing stay.



Enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi, a TV, BBQ facilities, and family-friendly extras including a porta cot and highchair. The cozy wood fire creates the perfect atmosphere during the cooler months (available for use from May to September), making The Summer Shack an inviting retreat in every season.



Whether you're chasing adventure, relaxing on the beach or simply admiring the ever-changing colours of the Hazards from the balcony, The Summer Shack offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience and classic coastal charm.



Come, slow down and experience the magic of Freycinet—one unforgettable view at a time.
