the neighborhood:
widely regarded as the best-preserved colonial-era suburb in australia, battery point was named in 1818 hobart’s first suburb Peppered with a mix of charming original dockworkers cottages, merchant-class mansions, nostalgic pubs and repurposed landmark buildings, the area is now a trendy cosmopolitan hub with everything that’s anything only a short stroll away.
stepping out the door is like taking a trip down memory lane, the popular little amsterdam café is directly across the road with its award-winning coffee from there it’s only 230m to jackman & mcross bakery, renowned for the famous “scallop pie” and also a pretty mean croissant!
the shipwrights arms hotel or “shippies” was built c1846, it’s a great space to grab a pint, soak in the ambience and contemplate what it was like in its heyday!
retreat to st david’s park just 270m away or drift two minutes down the street to the waterside salamanca drive, hobarts’ hip and happening hotspot with its original sandstone warehouses now converted into top-quality restaurants and bars
every saturday, salamanca drive is closed off to form “salamanca markets”, it’s actually hobart’s number one tourist destination and an institution for the locals A vibrant festival of fresh produce, hand-crafted gifts and bespoke clothing melds with street food, pop-up cafes andlive performers.
the highly rated da angelo italian ristorante is a three minute wander away (make sure you book in advance) and it’s only a six-minute walk to the mona ferry, constitution dock (of sydney to hobart fame) or the hobart cbd with its galleries, landmark buildings and more food
and wine options
for a change of scene, walk or take a bus up to north hobart’s trendy cuisine scene where the locals hang if you make the trip, its worth booking ahead to dine at bar wa izakawa, a highly
acclaimed japanese fusion restaurant
no trip to hobart is complete without tasting the famed wilderness and panoramic views over the city and the mighty derwent river from kunanyi (mount wellington), and it’s only a 20 minute drive
head south 10 minutes to long beach for breakfast by the water, continue on to kingston beach for lunch or drive 30 minutes down the coast to kettering and catch the ferry (with your car) to picturesque bruny island where you can drive around, take in its natural beauty and
