Heritage Blacksmith's Cottage Lisdillon Estate Waterfront | House in Little Swanport
2 Bedroom House in Little Swanport
Rivulet views, 19th-century charm, and rustic comfort await you in this rubble stone cottage situated on Lisdillon’s historic sheep farm and vineyard.
Settle in for a cosy weekend away; stroll on the private beaches, try your luck fishing, or sip on a glass (or two) of our award-winning wine.
It’s the perfect base to explore Tasmania's scenic East Coast, such as Coles Bay and Freycinet National Park (1hr drive) and Maria Island ferry (25 min drive).

Rich with history, surrounded by native land and brimming with cosy, old-world appeal. Step back in time at The Blacksmith’s Cottage.
Built by convicts in the early to mid-1800s, this two-storey rubble stone cottage is the ultimate weekend getaway. Imagine as you wake up to sprawling rivulet views from your bedroom, then at night curl up by the fire with a glass of pinot noir.

Separate modern kitchen
Everything you need for your morning coffee and tea, or to cook up a storm with local ingredients you can pick up on a drive to Coles Bay.
Bathroom

Private beach
Lisdillon Estate is one of the few lucky places in the world that has its very own private beach. Lisdillon's property extends to low tide mark so its boundaries grow bigger and smaller every second! Even though it is private and most of the time there won't be another person in sight you will occasionally come across other guests and people who rent shacks on the farm.
Private river
Take a moment to breathe and unwind on a quick stroll to the nearby river.
Lisdillon Wine
Taste and/or buy a bottle of Lisdillon's award winning Pinot Noir and Sav Blanc. Order once checked in and have it delivered to your door.
A fisherman’s haven
Trot down to the seafront of the Lisdillon Estate or rivulet and enjoy all the aquatic life on offer. We ask that all fish caught in the river and estuary are on a strictly catch and release basis (unless you are going to eat them) in order to preserve the environment of the river and estuary. Please only use lures, not bait hooks.
The sea out the front of our property offers bay flathead, salmon, squid cod, crayfish, and so much more. In the Lisdillon Rivulet, you’ll also find bream, oysters, brown trout, native galaxia and many other creatures.
Guest access
- Private river with plenty of fish to catch (and release)
- Private beaches (while the 5km coastline is owned by the Lisdillon Estate, you may see a few other guests from time to time)
- If you have a boat you can take it out to sea in front of our property
Other things to note
Water consumption:
We switch between the river and tank water, although both are filtered and safe to drink, some people still prefer to bring their own.
You are welcome to use the kitchen and cooking supplies (we will provide a more detailed list after booking). We advise guests to do their main grocery shopping before they get here as we are located 21km from the nearest town.
