About this property

A single-bedroom retreat on 250 acres of protected conservation land, Rocky Hills sits above Great Oyster Bay with uninterrupted views across to the Freycinet Peninsula. Designed by architect Craig Rosevear, the building is passive solar, fully off-grid and quietly extraordinary - solar powered, rainwater fed, and built to disappear into the landscape rather than impose on it. The land is registered under a conservation covenant in perpetuity. What happens here stays here. Accommodation is for two guests only. Interiors are spare and considered - art, books, light, and the particular silence of 250 acres with no neighbours. Outside, a handcrafted Huon pine bath sits in the open air. Rocky Hills is 10 minutes from Swansea, close to Freycinet National Park, and within reach of some of Tasmania's best food, wine, and coastline. It is also, genuinely, the kind of place that is hard to leave.
