Paddy's Shack - Outdoor Bath, Sauna & BBQ
Paddy’s Shack offers a truly unique Tasmanian getaway, combining the charm of an old-school fishing shack with a touch of indulgence and spoils. Picture yourself soaking in a wood-fired outdoor bath under the stars, enjoying a refreshing shower in the open air, or unwinding in the cozy warmth of a private sauna — all set against the stunning backdrop of Diana’s Basin. Surrounded by conservation areas and just a short stroll from one of Tasmania’s most pristine beaches.
Inside, the charm continues with two bedrooms, a queen bed in one and a double bed plus a single trundle in the other. The lounge and dining area feature two inviting fireplaces (one for use), perfect for cozy evenings after a day of adventure. The kitchen and sunroom add a bright and homely touch, while the front verandah, complete with a rocking chair, invites you to sit back, relax, and take in the serene views.
For outdoor enthusiasts, this is the ultimate base. With mountain bike trails just a couple of kilometers away, St Helens nearby, and plenty of walking tracks, surf breaks, snorkeling spots, and fishing locations within reach, the opportunities for adventure are endless. When you return, fire up the BBQ shed, enjoy the slow-combustion wood heater, or gather around the backyard fire pit for a perfect evening.
For wellness seekers - we have the ultimate package for you! The slow-combustion wood heater backs onto the sauna, which only takes 15 minutes to heat to 70 degrees! Spend some time in the sauna, then step across to the outdoor shower, then into the outdoor bath, completed with lavendar petals picked straight from the bush beside.
The beach is only a 5 minute stroll away, with secret path mapped out in our compendium...
Paddy’s Shack has everything you need to experience the classic 'Tassie Shack Life' with a modern twist.
