Wallaby Cottage - a peaceful Bruny Island retreat with a beautiful view

A comfortable weatherboard cottage overlooking Nebraska Beach, which is a few minutes walk away. Great view out over the D'entrecasteaux Channel from the decks at the front and side of the cottage. Ideal for a couple and two small children - or an extra two adults who don't mind sharing a small bedroom! The cottage is up a short but fairly steep gravel track - if you haven't got 4WD, just approach from the south, which avoids the sharp turn off Nebraska Road. Inside, there is one large main room, encompassing kitchen, dining area and lounge, all leading out via French doors onto the deck. On the mezzanine level, there is the main bedroom, with its own deck area outside French doors, a small bedroom with two single beds, bathroom with (very good) shower and washing machine, and separate toilet.
This is a family shack, rather than a smart purpose-built modern house. There is no air-conditioning or dishwasher. No internet either, although there is good mobile reception. Small TV/DVD player. But if you are looking for a house that's a comfortable retreat, close to the beach, sheltered from the wind, and with a beautiful deck area, it is a wonderful place to stay. Bird life and wildlife all around (that's why we say No Dogs!) - and unfortunately that may include mosquitoes in the summer months - buzzers and coils are in the cupboards. BBQ out on the deck for summer and a wood-burner for snuggling up inside in winter.
