The Bolthole - Freycinet Holiday Houses
Bolt Hole — a place to retreat, escape and simply be.
Explore, Relax and Rejuvenate at this property, proudly managed by Freycinet Holiday Houses.
True to its name, Bolt Hole is a contemporary coastal sanctuary where life slows down and the distractions of everyday living are left behind.
Perfectly positioned to capture breathtaking views of The Hazards mountain range and the rolling waves of Richardson's Beach, this boutique retreat invites you to reconnect with nature in complete comfort.
The light-filled open-plan living area has been thoughtfully designed to bring the outdoors in. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the ever-changing coastal landscape, while the spacious lounge, dining area and modern kitchen create an inviting space for gathering, entertaining or simply unwinding.
Step outside onto the expansive front deck and soak in the spectacular panorama of Great Oyster Bay and The Hazards. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee as the sun rises or a glass of wine beneath a sky full of stars, the views are unforgettable.
To the rear of the home, a generous deck offers a peaceful bushland retreat with additional outdoor dining space, surrounded by native vegetation and birdsong. After a day exploring the beaches and walking trails of Freycinet, rinse away the salt and sand before settling in for a relaxing evening.
Designed for year-round comfort, Bolt Hole features reverse-cycle air conditioning along with a beautiful wood fire that creates a warm and cosy atmosphere during the cooler months (available for use from May to September).
Ideal for couples, families or friends travelling together, the home's versatile layout provides the perfect balance of privacy and shared living. Spacious yet intimate, stylish yet welcoming, every space has been carefully considered to make your stay as comfortable as it is memorable.
Whether you're discovering the natural beauty of Freycinet National Park, wandering the pristine sands of Richardson's Beach, or simply watching the changing colours dance across The Hazards from the deck, Bolt Hole offers the perfect base to relax, recharge and experience Tasmania's spectacular east coast at its finest.

Stunning home, spotlessly clean, conveniently located, incredible view of the Hazards.
Stunning and immaculately clean home with all the kitchen amenities. Lounge room has the most incredible view of the Hazards. Rooms are modern, beds comfortable and sheets crispy clean. You won’t be disappointed.
Location magic. Accomodation out of this world. I would like to however point out that there was limited fire wood in house and none in wood box out back. We did find it the next morning under the house but as we got there at 4.30 freezing cold it was just a bit disappointing. Other than that it was a great stay. Thank you

Ants and more Ants
This accommodation is beautiful although our stay was spoiled due to ANTS! Agreeably, the management had put ant poison above the kitchen counter, unfortunately, the ants crawled up the wall to an ant trap hanging over our heads. We called management and they were well aware of the problem and even came and sprayed. They also told us not to leave any food out, which we had already figured out, we had stored non refrigerator food in the microwave but the ants persisted by attacking my makeup in the master bath. We finally got some relief when we purchased our own can of ant killer, but this was a temporary fix as well.
The other major problem we had was dirty dishes. Upon arrival you will see a notice that informs you that when you leave you are expected not only to wash all the dishes but put them away, which is fine, but the dishes that were there upon our arrival were so dirty we had to wash everything and I mean EVERYTHING before we used it. The cheese grater was so full of cheese it is no wonder there is an ant problem. Also, lifting a pan in one of the drawers revealed a pile of ant eating something.
I hate leaving a bad review but this problem was a known problem and we were not made aware of it and basically told that ants are a problem in the area. We looked at other VRBO's in the area and didn't find any reviews that indicated this. We also stayed in the rainforest and honestly had no problems with any kind of bugs so I believe this issue needs to either be addressed or guests notified of the problem. In regards to the dishes....everyone's idea of 'clean' is different. If the management expected guests to clean all the dishes they should be checking for cleanliness.
