Winter Challenge Tasmania

A stone's throw from the Prosser River in the heart of Orford and a five minute walk to the beach, this is the dream shack for a couples or family getaway. The property sleeps up to four across two queen bedrooms. Millingtons has undergone a recent cosmetic overhaul inside which includes a new kitchen that connects to open-plan living and dining - this is modern living at its best within the bones of a gorgeous, near 100-year-old home. There is nothing pretentious about this beautiful old house - there are layers of wallpaper, paint and original floor boards that could tell a story or two and that's what we adore about this place, it creaks and groans and whispers through its old bones, no floor or wall is straight and we love that! We are merely nurturing and appreciating all of these beautiful flaws and we want you to as well. Our expectations when you stay at Millingtons is to go slow - relax and ease into all of the comforts within the house and take a deep breath. This is our home away from home and it's brimming with our love and treasured possessions so please enjoy every second - Millingtons commands that.
