About this house rental
WAVESTATION In Southern Tasmania
You can enjoy this unique property set in two and a half acres of waterfront parklike surrounds in Middleton and escape the hustle and bustle of city life. This is your home away from home. Think of Bruni D'Entrecasteaux sailing past in the picturesque waters between Bruny Island and mainland Tasmania searching for a spot to land. Just think this could have been a French outpost!
Wavestation is ideally situated 45 kilometers south of Hobart over looking the water towards Bruny Island.
It is very central to many wonderful places in Southern Tasmania. You can visit Hobart for the day, possibly on a Saturday to the Salamanca market, catch the car ferry to Bruny Island at Kettering which is 10 minutes away, cross the neck to see magnificent Adventure Bay and the lighthouse and come home to relax in complete privacy. This is like your own home, plenty of space to explore the garden and the woods adjacent.
Study the birdlife and relax on the protected verandah watching the boats sail by. Walk along the quiet beach road. The secluded location ensures a great escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Plenty of outside space including a gazebo to enjoy an afternoon drink and evening barbecue.
Discover Southern Tasmania, the waterways, orchards and magnificent vistas from the hills behind. Visit nearby Peppermint Bay Hotel to enjoy music, food and local life. Art Farm Birchs Bay restaurant is nearby. The Middleton general store is well stocked and a five minute walk away.
Drive to Cockle Creek the southernmost tip of Australia.
Enjoy boutique cheeseries and local produce. Take the road from Woodbridge to Cygnet and have lunch at the Red Velvet lounge.There is boatbuilding at Franklin and the walkway in the trees in the Tarkine Valley.
Two bedrooms: One with Kingsize bed and the other with twin beds which can be converted to a queensize bed. Please indicate when you book
The kingsize bedroom with quality linen. This sleigh bed has outstanding comfort to enjoy a peaceful night. The bedroom has plenty of space and a couch to read in quiet contemplation. The twin bedroom has its own entry for early morning walks.
The kitchen and living areas
The kitchen is well appointed and close to the warm fireplace in the spacious living areas furnished with comfortable couches to enjoy reading, conversation, watching television or generally enjoying the view. Stroll onto the veranda for your evening cocktails and enjoy the boats passing by. On cold winter days the Tasmanian wood heater heats this room to make it cosy.
There is plenty of firewood in the shed. Usually there is a supply on the side veranda. Please replace this when it is used. For convenience there is an airconditioner providing heating and cooling near the dining area.
NBN internet is available.

This is the most idyllic spot to stay! We loved the view and the wildlife - including lapwings, ducks and rabbits in the garden in the morning and visits from pademelons and possums in the evening! It was great to see oyster catchers on an oyster-strewn beach!The house feels like a step back in time and is well and tastefully appointed. It was a bit of a faff having to reset the dishwasher at the mains switch each time (low down in the back of a cupboard) but we live in an old house so are used to such quirks!Access is good and the local shop is very convenient with friendly staff. Coningham Beach was a fabulous find and we loved Tahune Adventures including the picturesque drive to get there.It’s a beautiful place to come and relax and unwind. Just wish we’d had longer!We had excellent communication with Wendy ahead of our arrival and I hope we will have the chance to return someday. Thank you.

I just had a 9 night stay in the fabulous property. The home is beautifully appointed with quality inclusions. I enjoyed cooking meals and kept cozy and warm with either the wood fire or heat pump. The beds were also very comfy. Fantastic views of the Channel, birdlife and boats. I was fortunate to photograph the Sothern Aurora from the jetty very near the house.
