Churchill House Riverside Retreat near Long Beach

Explore this beautifully designed three-level home in Sandy Bay with stunning Derwent River views. Dine alfresco on the expansive balcony, relax in family-friendly living areas, or let little ones enjoy the leafy backyard with a playground. Cook effortlessly in the fully equipped kitchen and refresh in one of three modern bathrooms. Just minutes from Long Beach, and close to Salamanca Market, Battery Point, and Hobart’s scenic waterfront, this is the perfect base for your Tasmanian escape.
Step into a fully renovated, child-friendly home perched on a hill in Sandy Bay. Loung on two sofas in the main living area, catch up on your favourite shows on the TV or lose yourself in a good book by the decorative fireplace. Head down to the lower-level rumpus room where an oversized sofa offers extra space to relax, while little ones can explore their playful corner, complete with a mini kitchen, workbench, play tent, children’s table, and a variety of fun toys.

Get creative in the fully equipped kitchen, featuring an oven, dishwasher, and spacious bench with stools for two—perfect for sipping wine while cooking. Gather for meals at the dining table for four, or step onto the private balcony with panoramic river views and fire up the BBQ for an alfresco feast.

Drift off in beautifully appointed bedrooms spread across three levels. Wake up to stunning Derwent River views in the primary suite on the top level, featuring a queen bed, a walk-in wardrobe, and an elegant ensuite with a freestanding bath and a separate shower. Rest comfortably in the middle-level bedrooms, where a queen room with built-in wardrobes, a twin room with ample storage, and a king single room—offering space for a cot if needed—ensure a peaceful night’s sleep. Refresh in the spacious family bathroom with a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. Enjoy step-free access throughout the middle level, making it ideal for people with mobility needs. Retreat to the lower-level fifth bedroom with a double bed, conveniently located near a second bathroom with a shower over the bath. Maintain your laundry routine with a washer and dryer.

Travel light with a baby cot, high chair, and stair gate available upon request. Arrive with ease with off-street parking for two cars.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!

In summer, stroll down to Long Beach for the lively Hobart Twilight Market, where delicious street food, local crafts, and live music create a must-visit experience by the water. While at Long Beach, stop by Seagrass Long Point for a relaxed brunch and coffee with stunning waterfront views. Just a six-minute drive away, discover Sandy Bay’s vibrant dining scene, featuring All Thai for Thai flavours, The Metz for wood-fired pizzas, and Bento for Japanese cuisine. Coles is conveniently nearby for all your grocery needs. Hobart’s iconic waterfront is just a ten-minute drive, where Salamanca Place and Battery Point offer a charming mix of historic architecture, lush parks, and a thriving café and restaurant scene. From Brooke Street Pier, hop on a ferry to the world-famous Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) or take a scenic cruise to Peppermint Bay for a truly memorable Tasmanian experience.

Excellent stay for family

Really enjoyed the house. It had a nice view and the house set up and facilities really suited our family. Only issue was BBQ was not functioning, but not a big deal given the kitchen was well resourced.

Beautiful big house with a great view

This was a beautiful big house with a great view. We really appreciated the toys and availability of cot and highchair on request. That was really helpful. Unfortunately we didn't get to enjoy the garden because of rainy weather. The house was clean and mostly in good condition. There were heaters and electric blankets. Kitchen facilities were good. However, I felt like communication with the host wasn't great. Several times I got no response to messages or calling him or responses that didn't fit with my message - almost like he hadn't read or seen my message. Would be great to see this improve.
