Jons place is in a beautiful setting, we were able to stroll down to the beach and collect fresh mussels and oysters. We were able to watch the Sydney to Hobart yachts battling for position as they sailed past the balcony. The place is about a 35 minute drive from Hobart but there is a great IGA Hill St grocery store in Lauderdale which is about 15 minutes away and they allow shopping on line. walking along the coastal path there are lots of nice views and a childrens park not far away. would recommend to others for a good family holiday venue.
