Experience Tasmania’s gem

Saffire Freycinet is not easy to get to – but that’s part of the charm of this remote retreat, a 2.5-hour drive north of Hobart tucked amid the native forest of Coles Bay. Your outlook is jaw-droppingly beautiful, the pink granite Hazards mountains casting a ruby glow over Great Oyster Bay and the peninsula. The 20 individual suites are set apart for privacy, each fitted with design-driven interiors crafted from celery-top pine and Tasmanian oak, plus floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the natural surroundings.

The resort’s experiences are as immersive as they are educational, varying from hikes to fabled Wineglass Bay with an Aboriginal guide, to oyster shucking sessions that see you wading out into the water to pluck your own. saffire-freycinet.com.au
