For those who want to experience life in the slow lane, a new Tasmanian accommodation offering has emerged – bringing with it sea breezes, fresh air and space to unwind.

In the town of Penguin, and just ten metres from Penguin Beach, lies a luxuriously refurbished 1912-built heritage property that sleeps six. Here, in this tranquil coastal locale, a three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment treats its guests to 180-degree, north-facing views of the Bass Strait. Enter Novo Luxury Apartment.

Visiting in winter? Never fear, under-floor heating and a two-metre electric fireplace in an alfresco room keep visitors warm. While blankets are on hand  for leisurely afternoons spent relaxing on the large balcony with a barbecue, overlooking the beach.

Food and gourmet provisions are nearby too; the accommodation neighbours a cafe, deli, bottle shop and local butchery. And, a short stroll away lies a supermarket, restaurant, bakery and tourist information centre. And, the nearest airport is a short 30-minute drive away – offering seclusion with the comfort of convenience.
