ART DECO COTTAGES at Tarraleah Estate
Tarraleahs Cottages were hand-built by Tasmanian craftsmen in the 1930s and have now been fully restored and furnished to retain their Art Deco Style. Each of the 15 cottages are self-contained featuring full kitchens, dining spaces, lounge rooms with fireplaces, washing facilities, sun-room and 2 bathrooms. The cottages have retained the period style and charm which made them a 1930s luxury and remain an icon style today.
The majority of the cottages have 3 bedrooms except for the 2 Superintendents cottages which have 4. The Architect cottages have valley views, whilst the Engineer cottages have a lovely town and garden outlook.
The cottages are ideal for couples, families, colleagues or groups of friends travelling together who are looking for space, a place to make your own meals and even a backyard for the kids to run around in.
Note:
1. We only take self-contained/self-catering bookings during May - October as the Highlander Arms is closed and there is no grocery store in Tarraleah. You will need to bring all of your own provisions or request a meal pack in advance.
2. Each of the cottages has a slightly different bedding configuration, andc the most basic configuration only has been listed. Some Engineers Cottages have 3 x queen beds, and some have 2 x queen size beds and 2 x single beds.... so if you need something specific, best to mention it on your booking request notes or click "message owner" on Aabode's page.
