Extra spacious

Guests love this home’s spaciousness for a comfortable stay.
The river flows; time stands still.

Nestled on a quiet bend of the Scamander River, moments from Tasmania's magnificent east-coast beaches, Slow River is a contemporary sanctuary where 180° views meet perfect coffee and sun-drenched living. This stylishly designed home is crafted for lovers and friends seeking precious moments and a slice of Tasmanian tranquility and beauty.

The space
Built in 2024 with passive-solar principles, Slow River's custom wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows bring the river, mountains, sunrise, and sunset into every corner of your stay. The open-plan living flows seamlessly between spaces, creating a sense of calm connection with the ever-changing landscape outside.

The fully equipped kitchen makes meal preparation a joy - induction stovetop, oven, dishwasher, microwave plus quality basics like olive oil, salt, pepper, herbal tea, and sugar. There's also a BBQ on the deck for those outdoor cook ups. Coffee lovers will discover specialty beans from Villino, our long-time friends who've led Tasmania's coffee scene since 2007. Whether you prefer espresso from our Rancilio machine or filter coffee (brewing gear provided), we've got you covered. Plunger and stovetop options await those preferring simplicity.

When the sun fades, gather around the fireplace—because every Tasmanian home should have one. Light the fire, sink into the cozy embrace of flickering flames and river views, and let the Marshall Speaker fill the room with your favourite tunes.

The bathroom features a large walk-in shower with skylight perfect for stargazing or cloud-watching, plus laundry facilities for longer stays. Upstairs, the master bedroom continues the expansive river views with a king-size bed, while the second bedroom offers a cozy retreat for additional guests.

Starlink WiFi means you're well connected whenever you need to be.

Guest access
The entire home is yours to enjoy, except for an external storage room downstairs. Our listed rate covers 2 guests; if you'd like to use both bedrooms, please mention this at booking. Additional guests are $50 per person per night (maximum 4 guests total).

Other things to note
The house isn't set up for babies or toddlers. Both bedrooms are accessed by stairs, so may not suit those with mobility limitations. Contact us to discuss any specific needs.

My work: Youth Worker
I'm obsessed with: coffee and the ocean
I adore swimming in both the river and the ocean, in all seasons, anywhere in the world! I love surfing, meditation, dancing, knitting, adventures, black coffee and sweet milky tea.
