Waubs Beach Cottage - Freycinet Holiday Houses

Welcome to Waubs Beach Cottage, a charming coastal retreat just steps from the sand in beautiful Bicheno. Nestled by the shoreline of Waubs Beach, this relaxed three-bedroom cottage offers the perfect place to slow down, breathe in the fresh sea air, and enjoy the natural beauty of Tasmania’s east coast.



Explore, Relax and Rejuvenate at this property, proudly managed by Freycinet Holiday Houses.







Sleeping up to six guests, the cottage features two comfortable Queen bedrooms and a third bedroom with two single beds, making it ideal for families, couples travelling together, or a small group of friends. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be drawn to the stunning ocean views visible from the kitchen, lounge, dining area and front bedrooms. Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee or preparing dinner, the ever-changing seascape provides the perfect backdrop.



On cooler evenings, settle in beside the wood heater with the comfort of firewood supplied year-round, creating a cosy atmosphere after a day exploring the coast. Electric heaters are also installed throughout the home to ensure every room remains warm and inviting.



Tucked away on a quiet street with very little traffic, Waubs Beach Cottage offers a peaceful and private setting. Natural coastal vegetation lines the dunes in front of the property, creating a special habitat for fairy penguins during nesting season and adding to the sense that you are truly surrounded by nature.



The cottage is well equipped for a comfortable stay, including modern appliances, free Wi-Fi, a gas BBQ for outdoor dining, and a collection of board games, books, cards and DVDs for relaxed evenings in. The bathroom includes a separate shower and bath, and the laundry is fitted with a washing machine and dryer for added convenience.



The beach can be accessed directly from the stairs at the front of the property, although the path may not be suitable for guests with mobility limitations. Alternatively, the sand is easily reached via the street or near the Surf Club.



If you’re dreaming of a laid-back beach escape where the ocean is just moments away and the pace of life naturally slows, Waubs Beach Cottage is the perfect place to explore, relax and reconnect with the beauty of Tasmania’s east coast.

Perfect beach shack in waterfront location. Within walking distance to to everything in Bicheno and right at one of the main swimming beaches, this Tassie shack comes with all the amenities you need and that will make for a relaxed and happy stay. It's a secluded property and beautifully furnished.

Lovely beachside cottage

This place is ideally situated and has everything you need for a relaxing short or long break. Wood fire was great on a cold autumn evening (thanks!). View to die for. A real favourite.

Great location - close to everything

We enjoyed our stay here. Great location right on the beach. We saw a few penguins so the kids were happy with that. The photos look better than the reality. The single beds were small and uncomfortable - just ok for kids only. Furniture was basic. Needed lamps in main room to soften light. No Netflix - DVDs only with no remote to operate DVD.
