Research has found that the building was constructed in the mid 1800’s.  The Cooper family operated a chimney sweep business and Green Grocer business from the early 1900’s until the mid 1900’s.  Hence the name ‘Coopers Cottage’.

Coopers Cottage was faithfully restored to reinstate the original character of the times during 1998 and has been fitted out with many antique pieces.  Coopers Cottage began operation as a self contained accommodation business in early 2000.

Coopers Cottage forms an integral part of the Hobart Village of Battery Point.  Many of the buildings that line the narrow streets have been faithfully restored to their original beauty, forming an architectural streetscape that is truly unique in Australia.

Battery Point has a long association with boat building and this maritime tradition has continued to the present day.

We would welcome you to Coopers Cottage, in the heart of Battery Point Village, to experience this history, whilst enjoying the conveniences and luxuries of modern living.
