Little Beach Co. Retreat

The Architecture

Little Beach Co. Retreat offers a relaxed coastal escape surrounded by the natural beauty of Australia's coastline. Designed for travellers seeking tranquillity, nature and authentic beach experiences, this retreat combines a welcoming atmosphere with the freedom to slow down and reconnect.

Whether enjoying peaceful mornings, exploring nearby beaches or simply unwinding in a beautiful natural setting, Little Beach Co. Retreat is an inviting destination for guests looking to escape everyday life.

Set on Tasmania's east coast between Bicheno and Binalong Bay, the retreat brings together three ways to stay: the Aurora Domes, with expansive clear windows and a shared bath house; the villas with a wood-fired hot tub, fully equipped kitchen and a deck over the ocean; and Rockpool Residence, a three-bedroom home with an infinity pool and its own private rock pool. The Barn, built with rammed earth walls and timber beams, is where breakfast and BBQ dinner are served, and the cliffside sauna is booked by the hour.

The Environment

Little Beach Co. Retreat looks out over 400 m of ocean frontage on Tasmania's east coast, between Wineglass Bay and the Bay of Fires, with the Freycinet National Park peninsula on the horizon. A kelp forest runs along the entire south-east boundary of the property, dolphins and whales pass offshore, and on clear nights the aurora australis can appear. A private beach, granite boulders and rock pools shape the landscape.

Bioclimatic Design

Local architecture — Domes and villas were designed by a local architect to settle into the landscape.
Rammed earth and timber — The Barn and Rockpool Residence are built from rammed earth, timber, glass and concrete.
Panoramic clear windows — The curved clear panels of the domes frame the landscape and the night sky.
Insulated comfort — The villas carry double insulation, wood heaters and heat pumps.

“We are guided by a 100-year strategy as custodians of 400 metres of ocean front and of the kelp forest that grows along the entire south-east boundary of the property.”
