TASMAN COTTAGE

Originally part of the Penzance Motel, Australia’s first ever Motel; the cottage and property has been carefully renovated to pay homage to the dark, raw and wild environment of the Tasman Peninsula.

Utilising locally sourced timber and stone, the property blends in with its history and environment. The original cedar windows, floorboards and panelling inside, as well as massive open fire place create a warm and cosy atmosphere. A thoughtfully curated collection of furniture, books, artwork and records are yours to explore, to inspire a sense of creativity and connection.

“This place truly is the edge of the earth. We spent our time hiking precarious cliffs and strange bushland, straining our necks at enormous gum trees that puncture the landscape. The cottage is a warm nest to return to after a day exploring the wild and vast peninsula. The afternoons were spent painting in the golden sun and reading books by the fire. A dreamscape for the creative mind to drift and collect fragments for the future.”
