PEACEFUL, TRANQUIL, RELAXING
Attention: Possum Beach Cottage is able to supply you with this accommodation because of the good will of the surrounding residents. We kindly ask that you keep noise to a minimum. See our Terms for detail.
Possum Beach Cottage is Port Arthur’s premier self-contained holiday premises. Possum Beach Cottage is situated on Big Possum Beach, Carnarvon Bay. The cottage is fully renovated and is fresh, modern and clean. Its close proximity to the Port Arthur Historic site (only 3 minutes by road... see aerial photo), make it the ideal place to base yourself whilst visiting the Tasman Peninsula.
Possum Beach Cottage overlooks Carnarvon Bay which is the next bay around from Port Arthur’s Mason Cove…see map. From the deck and front rooms of the cottage, including the master bedroom, you will enjoy sweeping water views including vistas of "The Isle of the Dead"!
We offer you a quality, three-bedroom house. The master bedroom and second bedroom contain Queen beds. In the third bedroom are two single beds, each with their own pullout trundle bed underneath. That means we can sleep up to eight of you! Perfect for families. (Note: Maximum person limit is 8, inclusive of infant children. Heavy penalties apply for abusing this condition. See Terms and Conditions for details)
The Cottage is fully self-contained making it the ideal getaway location for those looking for more than the confined space of a motel room. All you need is your own food hamper. There is a small general store close by for everyday grocery items and hot takeaway food. However, be advised that it only stocks the most basic of items and choice is limited. We recommend you plan ahead when deciding on your food needs.
