Located around halfway between the Bay of Fires and the Freycinet Peninsula. Sitting on the deck you will not have any other person or house in sight; you are truly secluded within the mountain range below St Patricks head and still only 3 minutes' drive from the beach. Remove yourself from life's busyness and breathe in the tranquility and peace that Black Wattle Coastal retreat offers. Stoke up the outdoor fire pit and pour a glass of wine and enjoy listening to the waves roll in while having the view completely to yourself. Too cold outside? Light the fire indoors and sit in a bean bag with a good book and enjoy the view through full glass frontage. We can guarantee all our guests that our cleaners are adhering to government national disease control and cleaning standards following the spread of Covid-19. With all the chaos surrounding us at the moment it is still important to take time out, relax and have some adventures and Black Wattle Coastal Retreat is the perfect place to do this! Four Mile Creek has one of the best beaches the East Coast of Tasmania has to offer. There's also bush walking and 2 minutes' drive away there is a freshwater swimming hole (as pictured). Excellent fishing from the beach and creek. The East Coast of Tasmania has some breathtaking scenery worth finding and there is much to do if you are up for some adventures.

Freycinet is a 45minute drive where there are more walks to do, including the world-famous Wine Glass Bay. There are many vineyards along the east coast worth stopping in for a wine taste or something to eat as there are many with food on offer as well.

Perched up on a hill, the house is well-equipped and has incredible views over the Tasmanian coast. Would definitely book again. ##### Nicholas L. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mick M. 14 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing views! Beautiful house in the bush overlooking the east coast. Perfect. ##### Mick M. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Belinda N. 27 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Just as we'd hoped We wanted a central east coast base to come back to after exploring each day in all directions. The quietness was very soothing & the fire place was very welcome on the cold evenings/ mornings. We were a group of 6 extended family, and the house though not large was not cramped at all. The 3rd bedroom consists of 2 sets of bunks, which turned out to be too short for our teenage son- something to bear in mind. More stock of coffee pods or grounds would be a good idea. Would happily stay again if we come to that area again. ##### Belinda N. Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Airlie-Beach.h2802992.Hotel-Information) > > [Bannisters Port Stephens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soldiers-Point-Hotels-Bannisters-Port-Stephens.h27355893.Hotel-Information) > > [Exmouth Escape Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exmouth-Hotels-Exmouth-Escape-Resort.h4032424.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [Hard Days Night Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-Hard-Days-Night-Hotel.h1848863.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Resort Torquay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Wyndham-Resort-Torquay.h1927122.Hotel-Information) > > [Coral Sea Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Coral-Sea-Marina-Resort.h1047180.Hotel-Information) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Kenwick Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Louth-Hotels-Best-Western-Kenwick-Park-Hotel.h1497137.Hotel-Information) > > [Citrus Hotel Cardiff by Compass Hospitality](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Citrus-Hotel-Cardiff-By-Compass-Hospitality.h520199.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.Hotel-Information) > > [Kangaroo Island Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatta-Hotels-Kangaroo-Island-Wilderness-Retreat.h2041654.Hotel-Information) > > [By The Sea Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-By-The-Sea-Port-Douglas.h3024406.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Trail Lodge Margaret River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margaret-River-Hotels-Heritage-Trail-Lodge-Margaret-River.h9624427.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Ningaloo Reef Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coral-Bay-Hotels-Ningaloo-Reef-Resort.h4257765.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandalay Luxury Beachfront Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mandalay-Luxury-Beachfront-Apartments.h2648804.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lost Camel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-The-Lost-Camel.h4805954.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochester Riverside Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Rochester-Riverside-Caravan-Park.h65341713.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) ### Activities > [Things to do in Playa de Palma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Playa-De-Palma.d6047842.Travel-Guide-Activities)
