Bohemia Beach Retreat is a gem. I was looking for a little get away for a retreat and rest from Hobart and came across this place. I spent 4 nights and it was exactly what I needed. It's very clean and the bed is super comfortable. The wood heater works well to heat the place. It's cosy, warm and has charm. The surroundings were so peaceful. It has easy access to the beach and some wonderful bushwalks in the area. Max and Sheena were very caring, attentive and welcoming. Highly recommended. Madhu Lilley

For the past 30 years I have always driven past Falmouth heading to another location on the East Coast, north or south never realising what an amazing place existed just 1km off the highway and this was Falmouth, let alone the fantastic place that we stayed in. When you stay in this accommodation you won't only be comfortable but will feel the years of love and enjoyment that Mike and Sheena have had in making this place what it is. Amazing accommodation, place, and hosts. Best relaxed layed back place we have ever stayed at on the East Coast. Brent & Deb

From the time we entered the gorgeous gate we started to relax. Quaint and querky, we found Bohemian pad to be just lovely. The outdoor wood heated bath was amazing, and once we got the water temperature right, it was just heavenly sitting in the outdoor bath, watching the open fire and enjoying a glass of champange. The water stayed warm for hours. The cottage is charming. The beds are super comfy and our dog just loved having his own little 'doggy bed' so he could sit close to us. The outdoor shower and toilet are clean and easy to use, and the books and games supplied are also a welcome bonus. A short walk away from the beach and lagoon make this an ideal location for a weekend getaway. We would definately revisit. Trish and Paul Yeomans - Hobart

We just wanted to pass on our thanks for the lovely stay up at Falmouth for our mini moon. It was such a charming and cosy place with lots of beautiful little touches to make us feel at home. We lit the outdoor fire and read books outside on the comfy seats while sipping on some delicious wine Max left us as a honeymoon gift – it was the perfect place to unwind and relax after such a busy few months leading up to our wedding.
We were close to the beach and loved waking up to the sound of the birds! The wood heater worked a treat and heated up the place very quickly. It was very clean and comfortable and we would recommend this place to all friends who want to stay somewhere with a bit of charm, something different than the usual and a place that feels so welcoming. Thanks so much! cheers Katie and Jake

We highly recommend this accommodation for a relaxing get away. It is ideally located in a quiet seaside, East Coast town. The open plan bedroom, living and kitchen is very cosy and clean. The outdoor sunken lounge is well crafted around a fire pit in a beautiful private bush setting. The highlight is the 'infinity bath'. Sheena and Max are delightful hosts. Liz and Damien - Hobart

We just had 5 wonderful nights in this Bohemian Pad in Falmouth. Better than glamping and more privacy than a campground or caravan park, we found this permanent camp has it all, charm, relaxation, campfire, its own kayak moored at the lagoon plus all the mod cons (plus a few surprises) to ensure a special and unique get away for us and our dog !
