Ettrick Rocks
Feel worlds away from everything with a stay at Ettrick Rocks, a luxurious retreat overlooking the great Southern Ocean, on King Island’s wild coastline. Three stunning self-contained retreats are positioned to ensure maximum privacy while enjoying jaw-dropping ocean views from floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows. From every room in your retreat, you will be treated to some of Tasmania’s most sublime coastal landscapes – with a pair of binoculars provided, so you can gaze out at distant fishing boats or soaring birdlife. Feel at home cooking up a storm in the kitchen, complete with state-of-the-art appliances and a mirrored splashback reflecting the rugged surrounds. Gather for meals around the dining table, watching as wallabies hop across the scrub right outside your window, and wake up to the sounds of the ocean, visible via a stunning picture window in your bedroom.
Ettrick Rocks is a luxury retreat located on the west coast of Tasmania’s King Island, overlooking the Southern Ocean. The retreat is within walking distance of Ettrick Beach and Millers Bay, and you’re never too far from sampling the island’s famous cheese and dairy products, seafood, beef, honey, fruit and veggies at a local farm gate or eatery. A hire car is essential for travelling on the island. The retreat is located approximately a 15-minute drive from King Island Airport (KNS), however, flights are seasonal and guests are recommended to hire a private charter. Airport transfers are not included in your package, please plan accordingly.

The Retreat – Self-contained villas overlooking the Southern Ocean
Feel part of King Island’s rugged landscape when you stay along the wild coastline in one of Ettrick Rocks’ dreamy self-contained retreats. The three luxurious properties were designed by award-winning Tasmanian architects Rosevear and Stephenson to ensure maximum privacy while boasting uninterrupted 180-degree views of the Southern Ocean through panoramic windows from every room. Be mesmerised by the scenery while enjoying a distinct home-away-from-home feeling. Make use of the state-of-the-art full kitchen, relax on the chaise lounge in front of the gas fireplace and settle in with a cup of hot coffee on a cosy window seat, watching for the occasional wallaby.
You’re ideally placed to enjoy the natural splendours of King Island. Only a stone’s throw from your retreat you’ll find a number of secluded sandy coves and vibrant rockpools. Head down from your front door to the sheltered Ettrick Beach and spend an afternoon swimming, fishing and snorkelling. When you’re ready to venture from your luxe abode, King Island Dairy is only a 20-minute drive away: stock up on delicious artisan cheeses and take-home souvenirs – don’t leave without a tasting!
