We picked the beach escape because of its location, views and excellent set up for a holiday with a toddler in tow...and it didn’t disappoint.
The location is a little out of the way off the main track between Hobart and Port Arthur. But it was a great base for us to spend our days of exploring the Peninsular /Port Arthur and Coal Valley/Richmond wineries.
The house has really beautiful views of the beach and coastline. The sunsets were amazing and the fully fenced front deck meant we could enjoy it with our toddler. The beach is also very kid friendly and a very short walk from the front door.
There isn’t much in the way of facilities in walking distance of the house so come prepared to eat in and/or drive. Sorrel (on the way from Hobart) is a good place to stock up. But there are lots of lovely wines and local produce along the tourist routes too. That said the place is well setup for you to cook at home. The owners also provide a really well priced snack box with a few supplies which was nice...and very handy for me realising I had forgot my toothbrush!
Primrose sands isn’t your typical tourist area and some of the homes on the road in are a bit run down. But it was peaceful and everyone we met on our beach walks was friendly.
The beach escape itself is well set up. The bathroom is lovely and spacious. Our toddler loved the little play room and the beds were comfy. The owners have obviously thought about their guests with a great information booklet, range of dvds and games, beach equipment etc.
Good value for money!
