Swan River Sanctuary - In Harmony with Nature

Nestled on the banks of the Tasmanian East Coast, Swan River Sanctuary blends harmoniously into the landscape of the surrounding paddocks and banks of the Swan River. Offering a unique and secluded escape into nature, where panoramic views and luxurious design come together for the perfect getaway. 

Completely secluded, with no other homes in sight, Swan River Sanctuary is a place to truly unwind and immerse yourself in the serenity of the surroundings. The trickling river, the black cockatoos in the surrounding trees, the farm animals distant enough for peace, but close enough for an experience. Sweetly complimented by the wood fired sauna, take the plunge into the fresh river waters after a riveting sauna session, soaking in the plethora of health benefits that a cold plunge sauna experience has to offer – with complete autonomy and freedom. 

As you step inside the home, you’re immediately greeted by the warm embrace of natural light, bouncing off the Macrocarpa wooden walls and up to the vaulted ceiling. The soothing sounds of the riverbank fill the space, drawing you in to the breathtaking views that stretch in all directions. Every detail has been considered, creating a sense of softness and style, from the stunning abalone shell wall to the magnificent bohemian chandelier. 

On the ground floor, you’ll find two comfortable queen bedrooms, designed for rest and relaxation. A spacious bathroom with luxurious bathroom awaits just down the hall, offering a quiet retreat after a day of exploring the East Coast. For those who love to cook, the chef’s kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook up your bounty of produce collected from the region, or right here from the Swan River (fishing rods provided). Admire the burning open fire whilst indulging in your meal over the 160 year old dining table, which conveniently converts to a pool table for the evening events.   

Upstairs, the master suite awaits – a sanctuary of its own. The king size bedroom overlooks the mountain range, paddocks and river, able to be appreciated from bed or the in-room stone bath. There is also a separate bathroom which adjoins the master suite for added convenience and privacy. 

Whether you visit Swan River Sanctuary to disconnect, re-connect or recharge, we welcome you to immerse in the experience and enjoy.
