Boutique stay in old farm shed

BIG.SHED.HOUSE. A big old apple shed, lovingly converted into stunningly beautiful, luxurious, & completely self-contained accommodation, in the heart of Tasmania’s picturesque Huon Valley.

THE SPACE. A fully renovated historic apple shed in the Huon Valley, designed by Australian architect Sam Perversi-Brooks.

Cosy up in front of the central fireplace with a glass of wine and a good book. Relax on the north facing deck, nestled amongst the tall open trees. Stay in bed, lounge or cook up a feast in the spacious surrounds.
Bathe in the luxurious, open, light filled bathroom, or shower under the stars.

With a wide-open uncluttered space, containing original 100-year-old hardwood flooring and a soaring cathedral ceiling, this bold conversion offers the discerning traveller a sophisticated and idyllic respite from city life.

GUEST ACCESS. Completely private self-contained accommodation.

INTERACTIONS WITH HOST. We're nearby if needed, otherwise you can enjoy your stay in privacy.

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD. BIG.SHED.HOUSE provides access to the best of Tasmania’s art, culture, food, wine, and natural beauty.

Tasmania’s Huon Valley is one of the most loved food and nature destinations in Australia with travellers flocking to the region from interstate and overseas.
Only a kilometre away from all the conveniences of Huonville, the ‘capital’ of this famed apple, cherry and berry growing region, a mere 5, 10 or 15 minutes away from the villages of Ranelagh, Franklin and Cygnet, and a vast array of local wineries, quality food producers, providores, local bakeries, cafes, restaurants and farmers markets.
Hobart, Australias smallest capital city (with some disproportionately big attractions), is a 35 minute drive away (the airport is approximately 50 to 60 minutes)

GETTING AROUND.Hobart and the surrounding regions are best explored by car. Huonville is a short walk away (1km) where buses are available to Hobart and beyond. Bicycle hire is available locally in Huonville.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

This place was beautifully designed nd constructed and a great space to relax in after a day of exploring the local area. It was very well postioned. Great kitchen to work in or Huonville was just down the road for eating out if you don't want to cook. Very private. Just perfect.

The Big Shed House

From the moment we opened the door we felt extremely lucky to be staying in such a creative, beautiful space . Quality interior features that are both luxurious and practical. Fire had been lit for us and we could have just stayed in the shed for our whole stay.

Phenomenal

Ron and Yvonne’s wonderful property was the most unique stay we had in Tasmania. From the moment we walked in we were blown away, it was even more stunning than photos could capture. Great communication and personal touches. We will all be recommending this stay to everyone and can’t wait to be back someday hopefully soon!

Amazing Barn Conversion

We had a lovely time. Very comfortable and well equipped. Really enjoyed walking and bike riding. Thanks so much for the scrabble set - Ron kindly lent one to us as we forgot ours. Can’t believe we met the man who illustrated The Bunyip of Berkeley Creek. We love that book.

Like living in a movie (in a good way!)

What a stunning property. Easily the most amazing rental we have ever stayed. We didn’t want to even go out, just hang around the amazing 360 degree fire, stare at Ron’s Gorgeous artwork, the red bathroom on a stage and cook in the huge chefs kitchen. Every little thing was considered ... we will definitely be back.

Outstanding property and experience - not to be missed!

BIG.SHED.HOUSE. is a gorgeous place to stay. It is super comfortable in every way and the manner in which it is designed and decorated is exceptional. The owners have put so much thought into this property - it is stunning physically and aesthetically but also the provisioning at the property includes so many extras you feel very at home and well looked after. We stayed here for 3 days and very much wished we could have stayed longer. The property is well located, making it easy to access all parts of the Huon Valley and is beautifully quiet. The bathroom is a fabulous surprise ! Every day we looked forward to returning to the property and our evenings were very special here. We would love to return in winter as well - there is a beautiful log fire that you can turn to face any direction - all items in the house are quality ones. Thank you for a fabulous stay - we appreciated everything about BIG.SHED.HOUSE.

A beautiful space in a secluded location

This beautifully designed former barn makes for a perfect getaway in the Huon Valley. There’s plenty of space to lounge around in the wonderful open space of the main room if you desire but it’s so easy to get to other parts of the region too. Spent a fantastic couple of nights there and would absolutely recommend this to anyone who asked me where to stay in this area.

Amazing!!!!

We had the best weekend at the Big Shed House and would highly recommend it. I am one of those fussy (very, very) people who always seem to be disappointed when it comes to booking accommodation away from home. This place did not disappoint, the bed and linen were amazing and the kitchen was very well stocked with beautiful ceramics, appliances and furniture. By the way the fireplace turns 360 degrees, so wherever you are in the shed you can enjoy the ambience and warmth. We had a wonderful stay, thank you.

Understated luxury

We had a wonderful stay at the Big Shed House. It was so well appointed and comfortable. After all, who wouldn't love to curl up on the couch with a fire blazing in the background! We didn't want to leave and greatly appreciated the amount of effort put into making us feel at home. It was clear to us that you spent much time and effort restoring the apple shed. We fell in love with all the quirky upcycled materials and loved that the history of the building was left. No doubt we will be back again very soon.
