The Kitchen has been renovated with top class Neff appliances and is well equiped for you to cook up the best of Tassie produce during your stay.

I have tried to designed this space for functionality and space. I have enjoyed making a small space beautiful and hope you will enjoy staying here as much as I have!
THINGS TO LOVE
➡️ It is warm all year round - almost too hot so sometimes you will have to close the blinds!
➡️ Just a hop, skip and jump to the yacht clubs and the water front.
➡️ Great for early morning walks to Nutgrove beach.
➡️ Although it is part of a larger apartment block it has trees at every window, so feels very private.
➡️ Yellow Bathroom!
➡️ Even though its small its a great place to entertain a few friends. The kitchen has been designed with serious cooking in mind, and on a warm night the balcony is fantastic to gather, play some music and relax!

About the area
Hobart, the picturesque capital of Tasmania, is a city that offers a delightful blend of heritage, scenery, and culture. Nestled between the estuary of the Derwent River and the foothills of Mount Wellington, Hobart is a city where the wilderness is always within reach, and the water's edge provides a stunning backdrop to an eclectic urban life.
The city's rich history is palpable in the well-preserved Georgian and Victorian architecture, particularly in the Salamanca Place precinct with its sandstone warehouses that now house galleries, cafes, and boutiques. On Saturdays, Salamanca Market comes alive with vendors selling local crafts, fresh produce, and gourmet food, making it a must-visit for a taste of Tasmanian culture.
Mount Wellington, or Kunanyi as it is known in the Aboriginal language, looms over the city, offering breathtaking views and a range of outdoor activities. Adventurous travelers can hike or mountain bike on its many trails, or simply drive to the summit for panoramic vistas of Hobart and beyond.
The city's maritime heritage is celebrated at the waterfront, where visitors can explore the maritime museum or take a cruise along the river. The harbor area is also home to some of Hobart's finest dining, with an emphasis on fresh seafood and local produce.
Art lovers will find their haven at the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), a world-class institution that has put Hobart on the global art map. MONA's provocative and often controversial exhibits are housed in an underground space that is an architectural marvel in itself.
For those interested in Australia's colonial history, a visit to the nearby Port Arthur Historic Site is essential. This former penal colony tells a poignant story of the country's past and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Hobart's natural surroundings also offer unique experiences, such as the chance to see the Southern Lights, or Aurora Australis, which occasionally light up the night sky with mesmerizing colors. The city's proximity to wilderness areas like the Tasman Peninsula and Bruny Island provides opportunities for wildlife encounters, including the famous Tasmanian devil.
In essence, Hobart is a city that offers a harmonious balance between the natural and the man-made, the historic and the contemporary. It's a place where every traveler can find something to love, whether it's the fresh air of the mountains, the buzz of the market, or the allure of cutting-edge art and culture.
