Rosy Summers (Strahan, TAS)
Location: Strahan, TAS
Getting there: 4hr 15min from Hobart
Sleeps: 2 guests
Our little pink shack, Rosy Summers is nestled between other miners shacks in Lettes Bay, Strahan. Entering the barn style front door you will be immediately struck by the initial ceiling height. Rosy is a beautifully created light filled space, a calming space. It’s the perfect place for 2 people. You enter into the sitting room where you will be immediately tempted to curl up on the huge cosy sofa in front of the log burning fire. Off the sitting room is a cosy room with a daybed, a place to throw down your yoga mat, draw or write, sitting at a little table. You could stretch out on the daybed with a good book or just lay back and dream.
The long galley, fully equipped kitchen, runs from the sitting room to the bathroom. Enter the lovely whitewashed wooden door where you will find an old claw foot bath to soak in (no shower.) The walls and ceiling of this room are lined with tin, it’s a very light and spacious room. Next to the bathroom is a lovely calm bedroom with double French doors onto a small deck. The bed is queen and it is extremely comfortable with soft linen sheets and topped off with a vintage eiderdown. You can spend days inside this haven just being, it’s the perfect romantic escape
Tell us about your local community…
Strahan is a sleepy little town on the Wild West Coast of Tasmania.
Rosy Summers situated in Lettes Bay is just a few minutes by car away.
The shacks in Lettes Bay are unique and were built by locals from nearby Queenstown after a mining accident at Mt Lyell in 1921. The land was given to the employees to create escapes from the harsh daily mining life.
Honestly once you get to Lettes Bay and Rosy we think you will not want to leave. The resident ducks will keep you amused and there are occasionally a few local shack owners to chat with.
What is your favourite thing to do at the property?
I love to just relax with a book, do yoga, cook a lovely meal and walk along the bay and beyond.
I love walking into town, making a detour to Hogarth falls and ending up at the Coffee Shack in town, the best coffee in town and lots of delicious sweet treats, and other yummy food.
I also never miss a drive out to Ocean Beach, which runs for miles and miles with nothing between it and Argentina. It is a beautiful beach to walk along, get the wind through your feathers and fill your lungs full of fresh sea air.
Favourite day trip nearby?
To be honest we find it difficult to leave the tranquillity of the bay but a boat trip up the Gordon River is pretty special.
Guests shouldn't forget to pack their...
Paints and brushes, books, walking shoes and a raincoat!
How did you come to offer accommodation in the Bush?
Matthew and I love creating beautiful nurturing spaces and this sweet shack in Lettes Bay is a unique place that we wanted to share. It’s a truly romantic escape.
