Lune Mill River House

Lune Mill house, Lune Mill Road in the far South

Only one of its kind. Once the timber mill manager's house. On the edge of world heritage wilderness and beautiful waterways. Absolute waterfront, perched on the banks of one of the world's most pristine rivers.

Rustic but comfortable with power, plenty of hot water, digital tv. 3 bedrooms 1 double, 1 family room( queen bed and bunks) 1 bedroom with bunks (king single) . Up to 8 persons but prefer couples. Prefer you to bring own linen as we are on tank water however we have an emergency supply. Total peace and quiet.

Do not be expecting luxury, it is not , it is our holiday home with gum boots in the corner. If you are after night life and restaurants this is not for you. If you are after 5 star luxury this is not for you. If you are a serious bushwalker, caver, etc , fossiker, or like us, just want to chill out by the open fire or fish from the jetty it is just the spot. Fancy getting cooked? Enjoy our wood-heated outdoor bath by the riverside.

NEW Also now available some weekends.



8 km from Hastings caves and hot Springs,
Southport beach, Cockle Creek, Recherche Bay.
1 .1/2 hours south of Hobart on the scenic route via Huonville and Dover

Unfortunately we are not pet or party friendly.

In two minds
The house is located in the most beautiful of settings, surrounded by flowers, trees and the glorious Lune River. Standing on the back deck watching birds float past, knowing you’re miles from anyone else is an incredible experience. One which we adored. However while the description of the house as rustic is absolutely correct there are several things which are worrying. First is the electricity. The house is not insulated and comes with several electrical heaters as well as two wood fires, however if you have more than two heaters on at once all the electricity goes off, meaning you need to carefully choose where you want warmed. But if you want the kettle and two heaters on, the electricity goes off. If you want the kettle and the microwave the electricity goes off. Someone urgently needs to get this checked as it may lead to a fire. Second is that while having two wood heaters is great, the glass in one is smashed meaning it’s dangerous to use. If used and one of the glass shards falls out an ember could escape from the fire and lead to loss of life. There were few logs ready for the fire and there was only a very small tomahawk to split wood with. Third is the bathroom - only one roll of toilet paper with about 6 sheets on it (no spare) and a hair dryer with a European plug. A heater, but if you use it the electricity goes off. The listing mentioned wifi, dish washer and other conveniences, which either don’t exist or don’t work. Yes the place is rustic but please remov

Sunrise Stay at Lune Mill River House
We had a wonderful few days staying at the Lune Mill River House. It was great to wake up, open the curtains, and see the sun rise on the river from the bed. The view of the river was amazing.

short breakaway from routine
Very eclectic shack, unfortunately weather not good but pottered, played games and read. TV good, heating not so good unless good fire going. All basics available re bathrooms and kitchen. Would be good for a big group.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this historic, character filled property set in such a beautiful location. It's not for those seeking ultimate cleanliness and new style interior but for us it had the atmosphere we enjoy. We look forward to returning in the future

Lune River mill house is described perfectly. It is old, rustic, and just fantastic. We love the memories it brought back from our childhood. So many old things that were just like home. 10/10
