Orford's Sanda House Facilities and Features.


Sanda House is the oldest house in Orford (1840). Known locally as the old Post Office (1876-1940), it is nestled in an acre of garden, combining privacy with a sea view, and a peaceful, rural feel.

Sanda House is built from local field stone and sandstone and is part of Tasmania’s history.

Orford is a 1 hour drive from Hobart, via the Tasman Highway on the east coast, the warmest part of Tasmania. The town has a population of approx 500 and faces Maria Island, which can be reached by a 20 minute ferry ride.

Maria Island (a former convict settlement) has an interesting history and pre-dates Port Arthur. Its well worth a visit.

Port Arthur can be reached from Orford, by the tourist drive through the Wielangta Forest, which begins a few doors up from Sanda House. Orford has most of the features of a small holiday town.

A charming nine hole golf course, a bowls club, a hotel, fresh local seafood, a vineyard across the bridge, supermarkets and a post office. The Prosser River runs through the town and out onto a pristine beach.

Shore birds are often the only thing you will encounter. Their nesting site are protected.

Features:

Stone construction, probably convict built

Relaxing grounds with bulbs, roses, natives and orchard

Hearty Colonial breakfasts are made with local produce
