Would have liked a conventional oven.

Wonderful , quiet location overlooking the Hastings Basin. Provision of eggs and home made cakes was most welcome. Accommodation was full of interesting objects and tastefully done up.

food was great. We were left with a lovely cake, eggs, passionfruit, and the pantry was useful, even though we did bring a lot of our own food. Owner left a wheelbarrow full of wood each night for the wood burning heater which was very nice. created a nice atmosphere and kept us cosy and warm. Loved being able to head down to the water and collect the oysters.

Railing near or on the bath or steps into bathroom would be suitable for older less agile

the steps leading down to the toilet and getting to the water

the shack was great clean and comfortable

The armchairs were too low and very hard to get out of. (When you get older it gets harder to stand from low seats and it helps to have 2arm rests to push up on The bed was a bit hard and would benefit from a mattress topper.

Exceptional views watching sun rise over water while in bed Rustic setting slow combustion heater firewood provided Gathered oysters off the rocks for breakfast. Very close to Hastings caves and magnificent rainforest walk

Can't think of a thing! It was perfect.

It was so clean and well kept! There are spectacular views of the bay, through lovely trees - if you're into stargazing, make sure you look out the gorgeous (& huge!) arch windows in the lounge and main bedroom, or sit out on the large balcony. Absolutely stunning place, with beautiful hosts. Thank you for the delicious berry-cake on arrival too!

There was only one place to eat out without driving many kilometres. The nearest supermarket is in Dover, about 25 KM away.

The location is stunning! Views through the trees over the estuary. It is a very peaceful location. A home made cake and fresh eggs on our arrival. Solar panels on the roof and quirky touches to the interior. Comfortable bed.

Everything. It’s spacious, nicely built, clean and charming. The hosts are lovely, very welcoming and caring. We loved our stay and highly recommend.

The only thing to perhaps be mindful of is the shower over the bath....its a deep old claw foot bath so quite a step over for those who maybe less nimble footed!

We stayed at the Oyster Shack in late November ....despite being nearly summer it was quite wintery and that might have made our stay even better!! The Oyster Shack is a characterful little studio in beautiful surroundings and overlooking the bay thorough large windows which let the sunshine stream in....a great spot to sit eating breakfast and planning out the day. Theres also a wood heater and Russel kept us well supplied with wood so the cabin stayed wonderfully cosy, perfect after a day exploring. If you are thinking of checking out this wonderfully less spoiled area of Tasmania we would highly recommend this as a base for your travels :) PS ...and there really are fresh oysters you can collect and eat if you're really into that OR you could just enjoy some of Vans cake...Yummo!

Gorgeous place with wood fire heater, lovely living room with a beautiful view and comfortable beds. Warm and cosy for a winter escape. Collect your own fresh oysters down by the lake. Warm welcome with a fire going and fresh cake for guests. Plus excellent tips for where to go and what to discover in the area.

Excellent quiet location surrounded by bush.

Stayed in January 2022

We loved it!

It was set in the bush, overlooking the water, so quiet and peaceful. The shack was so clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Helping ourselves to herbs and fruit from the bountiful veggie garden was an absolute bonus!
