The Lookout - Freycinet Holiday Houses

Spacious, elevated and perfectly positioned to enjoy the very best of Coles Bay.



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



Perched high among the treetops, The Lookout lives up to its name with sweeping views across Great Oyster Bay and glimpses of the iconic Hazards mountain range. Spacious, comfortable and centrally located, this inviting holiday home is the perfect base for families, friends and couples looking to experience the beauty of Freycinet.



Set over two generous levels, the home has been thoughtfully designed to provide plenty of space for everyone to relax. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms and two separate living areas, there's ample room to gather together or retreat for some quiet time after a day of adventure.



The light-filled upper living area opens onto an expansive deck where you can enjoy your morning coffee while taking in the beautiful coastal outlook or settle in with a glass of Tasmanian wine as the sun sets behind the Hazards. Downstairs, the sheltered BBQ area creates another welcoming space for relaxed outdoor dining, while the fully fenced backyard offers room for children and pets to enjoy.



The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare anything from a casual breakfast to a family feast, making entertaining easy throughout your stay. During the cooler months, the wood fire adds warmth and ambience, creating the perfect place to unwind after exploring Freycinet (available for use from May to September).



The Lookout comfortably accommodates larger groups across four well-appointed bedrooms. The master bedroom features a king bed, the second bedroom includes a double bed with a single bunk above, the third bedroom offers a double bed, and the fourth bedroom contains two sets of bunk beds, providing flexible accommodation for families and groups.



Ideally located in the heart of Coles Bay, you're just a short stroll from Richardson's Beach, local cafés, the tavern, shops and the Wineglass Bay Cruises departure point. Freycinet National Park is only minutes away, placing world-famous walking trails, secluded beaches and breathtaking coastal scenery right at your fingertips.



Boating enthusiasts will appreciate the generous off-street parking with drive-through access, making it easy to park boats and trailers without reversing or complicated manoeuvring and the Coles Bay boat ramp is only a two-minute drive from the property. A porta cot and highchair are also available upon request for guests travelling with young children.



Pet Friendly - Your four-legged family members are welcome to join your holiday by prior arrangement, with an additional fee payable before arrival. While the property features a fully fenced backyard, some areas of the grounds may not be completely enclosed. We kindly ask guests to always supervise their pets and ensure they remain safely within the property boundaries, helping us maintain a positive relationship with our local community.



Whether you're setting out to explore the spectacular landscapes of Freycinet National Park, enjoying days on the water, or simply relaxing while taking in the ever-changing coastal views, The Lookout offers the perfect blend of space, comfort and convenience for an unforgettable Tasmanian escape.

Good family house in Coles Bay

The Lookout is a good option for a big family getaway. Enough space so no one felt crowded and good location - basically halfway between Mures Beach and Richardsons Beach. Air cons in each bedroom was a plus on the hot nights and the yard is secure if you are travelling with your dog. This is the second year we have stayed at the Lookout and would happily return.

Beautiful location. Comfortable beds. House not as good as expected and dryer not working, left with wet clothes. Greeted with notes telling us what not to do or it would cost us extra, overall not very welcoming.

The lookout

We were very happy with the location of the property and as it had a fenced in backyard, very pet friendly. The layout of the house is great for a large family group but the interior is definitely very tired and some of the furniture could definitely be replaced with clean more serviceable items. The septic system obviously struggles as there was an unpleasant odour wafting around regularly. On a positive note, good quality bedding and towels.

Coles Bay experiences

Property nice but dishes and pots needed to be cleaned again before use left clean what we used. Lots of spider weds inside cupboards, fridge has an awful smell. In general the house was nice and the kids and family had a great time just needs a bit of a tidy up.Would stay again but be nice if it was just a little bit cleaner.

Wonderfully relaxing stay in beautiful Coles Bay

The house is very roomy and comfortable, with living areas spread over two floors. The deck overlooks the hazards, and the kitchen is well equipped. It was ideal for a group of 8 friends looking to have some down time after a very busy year.

Great house in a great location

we had the best stay at Harold Street. Secure yard meant we could bring our pooch along.g for our special weekend. House warm warm, quiet and comfortable. A home away from home, but with amazing views and beaches close by. Conveniently place in a quiet street with shops and cafes within close walk. Thank you.
