How to find
us
From Hobart or the Hobart Airport, travel along the A9 highway to
Sorell, then turn right at Sorell following the signs to Port Arthur
(see the
Map of the Tasman Peninsula). It takes about 90 minutes to reach
Taranna from Hobart and about 50 minutes from the Hobart Airport.
We are on the A9 (the Arthur Highway) 90km south of Hobart and
10km north of Port Arthur in the village of Taranna. Taranna is
between Eaglehawk Neck and Port Arthur.
The house is bounded by the
road on one side and the sea on
the other and is very well signposted. We are just at the end of the
Taranna Jetty in Taranna.
