Neighbourhood

Beechford is a tiny coastal hamlet of about 100 houses and only 70 permanent residents. Farmland surrounds the district.

The Bridestowe Lavender Farm is within an easy drive, as is the historical Low Head Pilot Station, lighthouse, and penguin viewings.

The world-famous Barnbougle and Lost Farm golf courses are less than an hour's drive.

The Tamar Valley has vineyards and wonderful local food producers, cherries, berries, and more. Make sure to pick up some Tasmanian cheeses and smoked salmon, or maybe some oysters and crayfish (lobster).

The Wine Trail will take you to wonderful vineyards such as Bay Of Fires vineyard, Pipers Brook, Delamere, with cellar-door sales. A pleasant drive over the Batman Bridge brings you to the vineyards and cellar doors of the West Tamar wine region.

Getting around

There is no public transport to Beechford. Your own car (or hire) would be necessary.

George Town is a short 15 minute drive, with shops, hotels, petrol stations, supermarkets and boat launching ramps.

The nearest large airport is Launceston Airport, 75kms away.

Our second stay at Dave and Sheree's place was just as good as the first. Their flat is a well equipped place with every thing you might need, and a surprise of delightful home baked goodies thrown in, too. The garden is lovely, and we enjoyed the daily feeding of the lorikeets too, they love grapes and blueberries, cut in half, of course. Their kindness and generous spirit shines through with every thing they provided, and everything they did for us. We loved our second time here, and can strongly recommend a stay here if you get the opportunity. Many thanks once again to Dave and Sheree

Katherine and Bill agreed to a short notice Globe exchange at their place, for which we are very grateful. The downstairs flat is a wonderful location by the creek, with a view down to the water through the trees. We could watch the boats, canoes, kayaks and ducks. If you are susceptible to midge bites, bring your spray! Their place is beautifully decorated, and well equipped, every thing we might need, including a huge fruit basket (don't bite the pears! ) and fresh bread. We were spoiled with a marvellous home made dessert, too. If the noise from aircraft troubles you, bring headphones/earplugs. I hope the flightpath issue gets sorted out one day. We looked out over the garden, which was a cooling visual delight. The local supermarket was within a manageable walk, as was the dock for the river ferries. Many thanks to Katherine and Bill.

Dave and Sheree agreed to a short notice Globe exchange at their place, for which we are very grateful. We were warmly welcomed on such a hot day, with cold drinks and cake, much appreciated after the long drive. Their place is very well equipped, every thing from large towels to food in the fridge and pantry, bus cards, even a teapot for our teabags. We felt immediately at home and comfortable. Dave and Sheree spoiled us with home baked goodies, too. We looked out over the garden, which was a visual delight, lovely and interesting plants to look at, a visual feast for the eyes. Local shops and cafes are within an easy walk. Their kindness and attention to detail, the many generous touches (TimTams! ), their helpful attitude, all went to make this a marvellous stay, definitely deserving a title of “superhosts”. Their generous spirit shines through with every thing they provided, and everything they did for us. We loved our time here, and can strongly recommend a stay here if you get the opportunity. Many thanks to Dave and Sheree.

Marion and Kevin were kind enough to host me for the PLU meet-up in Brisbane. They are delightful hosts in an immaculately clean and tidy home, well equipped for guests. I enjoyed the “card night”, and appreciated the “taxi service”. I hope to one day be able to extend hospitality to them at home in Tassie.

We had a couple of catch-ups with Robyn and Peter before the exchanges took place which confirmed that they are indeed “people like us”. It's a shame they had to cut their visit short because of COVID border restrictions looming. They left our home clean and tidy, with delightful gifts awaiting us. We would be happy to have them as guests again.

Robyn and Peter's home is in a great location on the Mornington Peninsula, close to the coast and the “back beaches” It’s a quirky beach house harking back to childhood long hot summer holidays, the sort I didn't have a chance to experience until this exchange. The home has coastal/beach theme decor in keeping with its location, and all the modern convenient features, including a ydishwasher. We met our hosts beforehand, and were able to arrange a stay at short notice, for which we were very grateful. We did quite a lot of exploring with this home as a base: Cape Schanck lighthouse, Peninsula Hot Springs, Flinders, Red Hill Market, Rye Back Beach, to mention a few. Thank you Robyn and Peter - we loved our stay and are happy to recommend their home.
