Quarry Hill Lookout ..... scenic views, luxurious amenities, relaxing atmosphere

Quarry Hill Lookout is perfect for couples, families or groups of friends. Just 1 hour drive from Hobart or 1 1/2 hours from Hobart airport.

Perched on a hill, Quarry Hill Lookout, overlooks the stunning, pristine waters of Port Esperance Bay and is located a short stroll from the beach, restaurants and town center.

There are 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms all with built in wardrobes. There are 2 living areas and a sunroom to relax in. The wrap around deck allows you to enjoy all day sunlight in your favourite spot! The sofa lounge in the library area is great for those large groups and the extensive outside garden area to be enjoyed by all. NBN wifi included along with Netflix for those relaxing afternoons. Indulge in this luxurious retreat at Quarry Hill Lookout Accommodation, where scenic views, top-notch amenities, and a serene atmosphere await you. Experience the perfect blend of comfort and relaxation at this stunning getaway - away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! Your ultimate getaway destination.

It's also the perfect location for a small event as it sleeps up to 9 people comfortably and provides a great base from which to explore the attractions of the Far South, including:

* Hastings Caves State Reserve has something for everyone! Tour the stunning dolomite caves and see the full formation of stalactites, stalagmites and the unusual helictites, swim in the magical thermal springs, wander the short nature walks and picnic by the warmth of an open log fire - this is an inspiring day out!

* Enjoy short or longer walks through alpine and snow gum woodland as you follow the path of the Arve River in Hartz Mountains. This takes the walker through a landscape carved by glaciers. You may even be lucky enough to see some snow!

* Visit Willie Smith’s Apple Shed! You'll sample their delicious ciders and you can't go past their amazing toastie's and of course it's home to the best apple pie in the Huon!

* Learn the traditional craft of wooden boat building using rare Tasmanian boat building timbers @The Wooden Boat Centre

* Tahune Adventures is the home of the airwalk, eagle glider and swinging bridges! This day can be as relaxing or as adventurous as you would like it to be!

* Escape and explore and see a platypus in the wild along the river banks at Geeveston. Start at the Geeveston visitor centre and take the nice stroll. Take in the fresh air.

* If you like a bit of adrenaline then visit the Huon Jet Boat. Rug up and experience Tasmania's wild rivers and stunning scenery.

* We have a bucket list must do here! Head to Cockle Creek and take the South Cape walk to the most southern point in Australia! 4 hour return walk.

* Southern Aurora - you don't need to travel...... just step out onto the front deck, grab your iphone and snap away!

Wonderful holiday home

We had a great stay with even the cold and rain unable to dampen our spirits, the house was warm and cosy (and the fire pre-set ready to light!) with the wonderful view from the big windows to keep us entertained.

Weekend away with friends

A wonderful place to stay and everything you could think of was provided. Loved the Milo, chocolate and wine! The only improvement was the description in relation the 4th bedroom in what was advertised as the library. We did not realise it was not in its own room, but part of the lounge upstairs.

Amazing House

Incredible house, saw this listing online and loved it. When we arrived it did not disappoint. The views from every room are amazing. Nicolas attention to detail and her thoughtfulness was greatly appreciated. I would not hesitate to stay here again. The hasting caves just down the road are also a must, one of the best we have seen.

Amazing stay in Dover

This was a beautifully appointed property with stunning views. Waking up to the sunrise from bed was an amazing start to the day. Nicola has thought of everything with so many inclusions within the property. We were two families staying, and there was plenty of room with everyone able to relax in their own space. Highly recommend this stunning house.
