Peace & Plenty - beachfront hideaway with an indoor heated pool

Peace & Plenty consists of two self-contained guest wings, each with its own fully renovated bathroom and each with panoramic views over Great Oyster Bay. The central living/dining/kitchen area comes with bespoke Tasmanian furniture and quality furnishings, a state-of-the-art kitchen and offers sensational views over the Bay and Freycinet Peninsula.

You can do lots of pleasurable things at Peace & Plenty:
• waking up to watch the glorious sunrise over Great Oyster Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula
• lingering on the deck with a chilled glass of champagne and watching a golden sunset reflected off the majestic Hazards
• strolling along deserted Nine Mile Beach just 70 metres away along a private path from the house
• enjoying a warm dip in the heated indoor pool
• appreciating the gorgeous Southeast Asian and Japanese textile art in every room
• picking fresh herbs and seasonal produce in the veggie garden
• cooking a gourmet dinner in your state-of-the-art kitchen with all the essential ingredients
• and finally luxuriating in your Tasmanian-designed Queen-sized bed, drifting off to sleep with just the sound of the waves breaking softly on the beach.

Is this your ideal holiday?

Peace and quiet.
We had the most amazing week at Peace and Plenty celebrating our wedding anniversary. We couldn’t have asked for a more quiet and relaxing location. The house is gorgeous with absolutely beautiful views. It was a great base from which to explore the region and come back to a restful location. We would definitely recommend it and would absolutely love to go back.

Lovely location. Great amenities.
Loved staying at Peace and Plenty. The pool was clean and we used it every day, at least once. The beds are very comfy and the kitchen is well equiped. A very short walk to a secluded beach and the weather was perfect during our visit A short drive to Swansea to get more supplies. A pity the promised eggs, bacon and Sourdough bread never materialised but it didnt spoil our little gettaway with the grandkids. Will definitely go again.

Stunning views in a cosy home.
We are a family of four and were joined by a friend on this short getaway. The views are breathtaking, and from every room which is a treat. All beds were very comfortable, even the single pullout I was told. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and we all really enjoyed the pool which was the perfect wind down after a big walk on the beautiful, rugged beach. Charmaine was fabulous to deal with, quickly available when we needed her and happy to help. We would highly recommend this gorgeous place and would love to return.

Peace & Plenty. The property name says it all. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The views are sensational. Sunrise & sunsets were magnificent. A view from every room. The house is warm and inviting and yet modern at the same time. Something for everyone. Charmaine is a delightful host who had thought of everything. Five stars all the way.

Sensational 3 night Girls weekend away at Peace and Plenty which exceeded our expectations. Just footsteps away from what felt like our private beach. This beautiful property is immaculately maintain and presented. Attention to detail, well furnished and super comfortable. The heated pool was the highlight of our stay, closely second would have to be laying in bed at night listening to the waves breaking on the shore line. Charmaine and Paul have been wonderful throughout our stay and we highly recommend a stay at Peace and Plenty. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again.

Luxurious beach side property, perfect for two couples with great showers and all modern facilities. Spa pool is just an extra bonus after a long hike. Perfect place to sit and watch the ocean with a hot coffee, play cards warmed by the wood burner and star gaze at night! Enjoyed the best oyster shack just down the road and Swansea is a 5 min drive for all your basics.

It’s like we have discovered a secret. To be able to stay somewhere that you can lay in bed and stare into the most unspoilt beach one minute, be relaxing in the perfectly heated pool discussing what beautiful dishes you are going to create from the organic garden the next to sitting in your kimono playing card games. Perfection!

A great experience
The view from the house was lovely. The house and beds were very comfy, and the bathrooms excellent. We so appreciated the bottle of wine on arrival and the provisions for the first morning's breakfast. The vegetable garden is wonderful - we had fresh salad and herbs straight from the garden. The Jacuzzi was a welcome extra. We've stayed at many up-market accommodations previously, and to be honest, for the price you pay for this accommodation we would expect: A Smart TV King size beds Fans in both bedrooms Water toys (such as kayaks and life jackets, boogie boards etc) Reels included with fishing gear Comfy outdoor furniture.
