Directions from Hobart

Buttongrass Retreat lives up to its name. There are no street lights and few people to ask the way after hours. We recomend that you plan your trip to arrive before dark.

• In Hobart, follow Davey Street to the A6 Southern Outlet.
• Follow the signs 42km to Huonville. Cross the Huon River and continue another 25km to Dover.
• Continue 12 km south on the A6. Follow the main road as it sweeps right at the Southport junction. From here there are several short sections of gravel alternating with bitumen. Drive sensibly.
• Continue 6 km to Lune River, then 3km to Ida  Bay.
• Stop at Ida Bay Railway to get your key. This is bin the key box left of  the main ticket office door and is available all hours.
• Ten metres north of the railway crossing, turn into the gravel
  driveway. This is Buttongrass Retreat.
• Your key will open the gate. It is then 400m to the carpark and house.
