Worth the drive to Georgetown and then Low Head, (locals call it Blow Head, as it seems to be a windy spot). The lighthouse has good views from the carpark. On Sundays round midday you can hear the sound the foghorn.

Our local seahorse farm approx 100m from the cottage/studio. A must see aquarium, and the tours will tell you all about seahorses and their missions.

Approx 100m from the cottage studio. Platypus House and Echidna house will let you see platypus underwater and in daylight conditions. The echidnas follow you round, and are so cute. Lots to learn that echidnas and platypus are actually related.

20klms away a pretty little beach, good for a walk on low tide. There is a small store/takeaways there too. It is on the mouth of the Tamar River and Low Head is on the other.

A great maritime museum to visit, and is dominated by the full size replica of the Norfolk. Anyone interested in nautical history would enjoy the Bass and Flinders Centre. It is staffed by volunteers, is wheelchair accessible and has easy to read signage. There's a great little restaurant which has full meals as well as coffee and cake. It is at Georgetown on the other side of the river.

This is one of many wineries in the Tamar Valley, and most of our guests reckon this one is good! Never hear a bad thing about their visit to this one. It is at Rowella.

They specialise in handcrafting specialty Tasmanian timbers into wood sculptures of various forms - as artistic focal pieces, or to create absolutely unique pieces of furniture. A great place to visit on the way to Greens Beach. The gallery is at Clarence Point.

Our local pub. The dining room overlooks the marina. The meals are always good quality and don't keep you waiting too long. In winter their log fire is good.

Great calamari, burgers are pretty good too. You can eat in the park across the road from Chef's Catch and feed the many hungry seagulls chips, or eat inside. They have a large menu of takeaway food and ice cream.

Alot of our guests have been to Burt Munro's and have really enjoyed the food. Have been told several times the scallops are really good. A great place to stop at Exeter and have a look at the old bikes.
