Berwick Cottage and Studio Historic Battery Point

Never a truer rag to riches story than was the life of convict Robert Logan who was instrumental in transforming the seaman's village of Battery Point into one of Hobart's most prestigious and sort after suburbs.

Berwick Cottage (originally the family home for Robert and his wife Sophia) and Studio are both well-appointed and centrally based for you to enjoy with family and friends, as you immerse yourself in the area's historical past and enjoy the thriving Hobart city and waterfront.

With 3 bedrooms and a bathroom in the main cottage and a bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette in the Studio, you won't find a better inner-city stay when travelling in a larger group.

Berwick Cottage is a gorgeous Victorian Georgian cottage, named after the English town of Berwick-Upon-Tweed where a young delinquent Robert Logan was sentenced to transportation to Van Dieman's Land in 1829.

Whilst still retaining its original facade, inside the cottage you will find a light and bright interior. With a large well-equipped kitchen adjoined by a dining area comfortably seating all guests.

A separate living area is cosy space where you can relax, unwind and enjoy the smart TV with access to fast unlimited WiFi. Chromecast is available for streaming from your own device.

Three comfortably furnished and spacious bedrooms provide private spaces for you and your family or friends.

Two of the bedrooms located at the front of the cottage have queen-size beds and the third is furnished with two single beds.

Berwick Studio is an open plan studio apartment with a queen-size bed, kitchenette and separate bathroom and laundry.

Two off-street car-parking spaces are available and this is very rare in Battery Point.

Within walking distance are numerous attractions.

Start your day with a coffee and breakfast only metres away at the renowned Jackman & McRoss Bakery, or venture 5 minutes further down the road into tree-lined Salamanca Place to explore the restaurants, gift shops or Tasmanian's most visited attraction the Salamanca Market which takes place every Saturday.

If you are in Hobart for one of the major festivals such as Taste of Tasmania, Mona Foma or Dark Mofo, Berwick House is the perfect place to base yourself.

Hampden Road restaurants and eateries are just moments away. Salamanca Place, parks and the joys of the busy waterfront with the MONA ferry are all a 5-10 minute stroll from the cottage.
