Captains Rest is a Historically Listed, absolute waterfront cottage in Lettes Bay Village, just outside of Strahan, Tasmania. Complete with its own jetty out the front, you're sure fall deeply in love with this place. Lettes Bay Village itself is a vibrant heritage shack community — bustling in summer, serene in winter, you’ll love your stay in both seasons equally.

This is the perfect place to chill out. Take a book, put your feet up on the sofa and while away the hours. For a bit of fun, have a go in the little rowing boat.
