About this property

Cute one bedroom cottage, perfect for couples or singles. Surrounded by a permaculture country garden on one side and native bushland on the other, you will feel close to nature. River access is 5 minutes drive to the Franklin foreshore. Rustic restoration of this rural cottage has created a peaceful escape from city stresses. Just 45 minutes form Hobart, in the Huon Valley, this is a great place to just relax or use as a base to explore the wineries, national parks and waterways of southern Tasmania.

What makes this property unique

You probably consider your dog to be part of your family. So do we.
Dogs are NOT automatically accepted. They can often be accommodated by discussion with the cottage hosts:
- Dogs must be on lead at all times outside studio.
- Our property is a "Land for Wildlife" Property & we have free ranging chickens. As such we want to ensure NO Wildlife is threatened.
- $60 charge for your dog - this is a one off charge regardless of duration of stay.
