Latitude Luxury Holiday Home

Overview

Latitude House, King Island: Wild Ocean Views & Coastal Luxury on the Edge of the Roaring Forties

Positioned on the rugged western shore of Tasmania’s wild King Island, Latitude House offers an unforgettable front-row seat to the roaring beauty of Bass Strait and Ettrick Bay. Designed for time spent together—whether that means long shared lunches, late dinners, or quiet mornings watching the ocean roll in—this contemporary coastal retreat combines space, privacy, and low-key luxury.

Crafted for Families, Groups & Golf Trips

Spacious and beautifully appointed, Latitude House sleeps up to 6 guests across 3 serene Queen bedrooms with luxe linens, complemented by 3.5 modern bathrooms.

• Indoor & Outdoor Entertaining: Warm up by the indoor roaring wood fire when the weather turns wild, or gather on the spacious outdoor deck. Complete with a Weber BBQ (and even a local tap setup for a cold pour), it’s built for unforgettable evening meals.
• Fly directly to the Door: For the ultimate luxury arrival, touch down right on the property’s private helipad before pouring a drink and settling into island time.
• Gourmet Island Living: Cook up local treasures in the fully equipped kitchen (complete with a coffee machine)—from iconic King Island cheeses and grass-fed beef to fresh crayfish bought straight from the wharf.

Your Base for Island Exploration & Stargazing

Latitude House is the ultimate launching pad for discovering the best of King Island:

• World-Class Golf: Perfectly located for golfers tackling the famous links at Ocean Dunes and Cape Wickham, both consistently ranked among Australia’s top coastal courses.
• Wild Coastlines & History: Discover Seal Rocks, historic lighthouses, and the island’s famous shipwreck trails.
• Unrivaled Stargazing: Unwind under ink-black skies free from light pollution, where the Southern Cross and Milky Way put on a spectacular night-time display.

Aussie Bucket List Pro-Tips

• Helicopter Golf Arrival: Flying in with a group for a golf weekend? Arrange a charter flight direct to Latitude House's on-site helipad for an unforgettable arrival experience.
• Local Feast Night: Pick up fresh crayfish, King Island grass-fed steaks, and specialty cheeses in Currie to fire up on the Weber for a long, late dinner with ocean views.
• Bring a Camera for Storm Watching: The western coastline is world-famous for its dramatic ocean swells; watching winter storms roll across Bass Strait from the warmth of the fire is a true Tasmanian bucket-list memory.
• Stargaze After Dark: Turn off all the indoor lights, step out onto the deck, and take advantage of King Island's virtually non-existent light pollution for incredible views of the Milky Way. And if you are extremely lucky, the Aurora Australis has even been seen from this location!
