Why it's worth checking out
Larus Waterfront Cottage is a contemporary holiday cottage at White Beach on Tasmania’s Tasman Peninsula, with a setting designed for slowing down. Its name comes from Larus Pacificus, the large gulls seen resting on the waters of Wedge Bay, connecting the accommodation with the coastal landscape around it.
The cottage offers a base for exploring the region, including the Port Arthur historic site, coastal scenery, extensive national park and local native wildlife. It also suits guests who would rather make the most of the setting itself: the website highlights the changing moods of the bay and views towards Mount Wellington, with the option to simply sit and take them in throughout the day.
Located at White Beach Road, Larus Waterfront Cottage places guests in a scenic part of the Tasman Peninsula while keeping the area’s major attractions within reach. It is a natural fit for travellers seeking a self-contained coastal escape, whether their plans centre on exploring Port Arthur and the surrounding landscape or spending quiet time by the water.
