Our Beach Break

Our stay at Erica’s beach house was just perfect. The property is perfectly located and offered us a slice of tranquility in our hectic schedules yet at the same time we enjoyed beach walks, fishing and everything that nearby Hobart had to offer. Erica was wonderful to deal with and made our stay both memorable and convenient. Definitely would love to return to Opossum Bay!

Just lovely!

We had such a lovely stay! The location is beautiful and it was just perfect for a weekend getaway. The house was clean, tidy and very comfortable. We unfortunately left our kindle behind but the owner let us know straight away and we organised to collect it so that was great! We'll definitely be back :)
