The Battery Point of today retains much of the character of 100 years ago and when people seek accommodation in Hobart this is one of the most popular places to stay. Battery Point is named after a Battery of guns (long since removed) that were established on the point in 1818. The features of the area that people talk about most are the Real Estate, Restaurants, History, for tourists it's often the Bed and Breakfasts and Salamanca Market.
Battery Point is Hobart's most historic suburb, and is located a short walk from Salamanca Place and the waterfront via Kelly's Steps. Battery Point retains the character of a Cornish fishing village of the last century. It began life as a home for mariners who worked out of Hobart Town, and is still mainly a residential area.

The climate lends itself for beautiful lush rose gardens. Apprantly they are very easy to grow.
This cottage was at the bottom of our drive whilst we stayed at Beauty Point.
Robyn Loved this little cottage and thought it might be a great place to retire to.
