About this house rental
Birdsong is a spacious, stylish, modern 2-bedroom villa built as part of our old beachfront Queenslander. It is independent of our own accommodation, set in a large beautiful private garden full of rare and unusual tropical and native plants.
Although within easy walking distance of restaurants, cafes, sports clubs, the RSL, and beaches (including dog beaches), it is a quiet and relaxing location. The noisiest residents are the native birds! It is arguably the loveliest residential part of Bribie Island.
The location is perfect for a relaxing holiday or weekend getaway. Some of our features include:
Pet friendly
The are no fees at all for pets!
We love animals and would like to accommodate your pets. We can take most dogs, pet birds and possibly other animals. Please contact us to see if we can accommodate your particular pets. We welcome guide dogs and disability assistance dogs.
We have a fenced yard which adjoins a large undercover deck. Pets can move independently and securely between their yard, the deck, and inside the villa.
You can walk your dog/s on off-leash dog beaches. Our closest off-leash beach is about a 1.3 km street-walk away (3 mins by car).
Wheelchair / Disability Accessible
Fully wheelchair accessible and was designed by an experienced occupational therapist. This includes:
- Completely flat flooring with the exception of bathroom doorway lip (12 mm) and (16 mm) lip to back deck.
- Wet-room bathroom with hand-held shower & no shower hob, and hospital-grade, slip-resistant vinyl flooring.
- We can provide a shower chair and raised toilet seat if required - at no extra cost.
Lots of things to do. There are ample opportunities to:
Get Physical
- Swim at the Bribie Island Aquatic Centre & we have easy beach access for swimming in the Pumicestone Passage
- Cycle along Bribie's extensive network of bike paths. A beautiful waterside bike path runs past Birdsong.
- Beach & bush walk - Bribie is very flat so you don’t have to be super fit to enjoy these pastimes.
- Fish from either beach or boat. The beach in front of Birdsong is popular for fishing but not dog accessible as it is a national park.
- Kayak in the ocean or the network of canals
- Play golf at one or both of the 2 golf courses on Bribie Island.
- & Sail, surf, sailboard, jog - to name just a few more!!!
Enjoy Nature
- Bird-watch - The local area is home to more species of birds than Kakadu!! A short walk from Birdsong is Buckley’s Hole, a fresh-water lagoon popular with bird watchers and many local and migratory birds. There is even a bird hide.
- Enjoy native wildlife - Most of the island is uninhabited with 55.8 square kilometres of national park and forestry plantations. Consequently, native wildlife abounds, whether it be kangaroos on the beach, black cockatoos in our Banksia tree, or dolphins frolicking near the beach.
Explore
- Go 4-wheel driving on approved beaches or through the bush up the centre of the island
- Take a Ferryman Cruise up the Pumicestone Passage. The trips range from 2 hrs to all day and include meals, and the boat is wheelchair friendly.
- Visit The Abbey Museum of Art and Archaeology, a 15 min drive from Bribie. The Abbey Museum has some of the most significant holdings of international art and antiquities in Queensland.
- Visit Steve Irwin's Australia Zoo - 54 km north of Bribie and a 45 - 50 min drive. It is also wheelchair friendly and thoroughly recommended.
- Visit the Sunshine Coast which begins at Caloundra, about 1 hour from Bribie.
- Explore the lush Sunshine Coast Hinterland - including the villages of Montville, Maleny, Mapleton & Flaxton (about a 1 hour drive) and experience nature, art galleries and wonderful food.
Indulge Yourself:
- Sit on the beach or in the park and eat some of the best fish and chips.
- Dine out at a selection of cafes and restaurants - the best being a 10 min walk from Birdsong.
- Even make use of some modern conveniences - an air-conditioned twin cinema; well-stocked supermarkets; and all the usual facilities you need to lead your daily life.
- Enjoy the Bowls, Golf, Surf, & RSL clubs - Some have courtesy buses &/or are a short walk from Birdsong.
Environmentally friendly
- Built from Zego (concrete filled polystyrene blocks), so has an energy rating of 9/10, making it cool in summer and warm in winter. There are heaters and fans for when the weather gets extreme, which is very rare.
- All the doors and windows and many other fittings are recycled. This includes stained glass and lighting from various periods, including Victorian.

Although it rained during our stay we thoroughly enjoyed the location and amenities. We travelled with two small dogs and the backyard and verandah were both very comfortable and accomodating- thank you Jock and Robyn

Fabulous location only 3 mins walk to water with lovely waterfront walkways, cafes, shops, parks and amazing views. Only 3 min walk to RSL club which has good meals and a dog friendly daytime cafe. This is the best part of Bribie Island with beautiful areas and nice beaches. Our host was lovely, welcomed us on arrival and showed us around the spacious, comfortable and lovely, furnished 2 bedroom, downstairs apartment which was thoughtfully supplied with everything one could possibly need. Pets are welcomed and our little dog had a great time too. We would really love to go there again.

What a lovely unit, Robyn and Jock have done a great job decorating this unit with some wonderful fixtures, furniture and art work. My partner, myself and our fur baby had a wonderful week here. I would recommend staying here to everyone if you get the chance. The garden is like being in a tropical forest with many flowering plants.

We had another good break away at Bongaree, this property is perfect for us with our small dog and the location is great, thanks Robyn and Jock. Whilst there are 3 good pedestal fans, ceiling fans or a/c in the bedrooms and screens on the windows, would make this a perfect summer holiday house. Will definitely be back in the cooler months.
4.8
The house was amazing. The garden was a masterpiece.
It’s the best holiday house I have stayed in and at 75, I have stayed in hundreds of places. My dog loved it, the birds were amazing, I will be back.

We had a lovely stay at Birdsong. House was lovely. Owners met us on arrival and showed us through the house. It was pet friendly too which was important to us. All the basics was there too like towels, including pool towels, linen and kitchen cleaning stuff etc. Highly recommend the house.

Robyn and Jock were amazing hosts and gave us our privacy but were always on hand for any advice.
Our stay was amazing with a very secure backyard for our two puppies. Lovely home with fabulous deck area for chillin out on.
Pet friendly RSL was a bonus.
Will definitely be returning again.

This ground level property, located at the end of a quiet lane, provides a perfect location for peaceful relaxation in a tropical garden setting. The owners are on hand to welcome guests & assist with any enquiries, but otherwise are no intrusive. A separate entrance leads into a spacious cool retreat with 2 bedrooms, easy access bathroom and a large open plan living area with comfy couches, dining area and kitchen . Full length bifold wooden doors open out to the swimming pool & outdoor dining/seating area, all framed by the beautiful garden. Birds abound. All this is a short walk to the Esplanade, Museum and beach area of Bongaree, not far from the bridge.
We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay here and are happy to recommend it.

Thank you for our short stay. Our aging puppy was quite rejuvenated. We were relaxed enjoyed the beach walks and the friendly atmosphere at the RSL, including puppy. Accommodation and gardens were perfect for our stay. Looking forward to staying again.

Overall a little disappointed.
Listing says lap pool and spa..there was no spa. Direct front beach access was not available and its not a dog friendly beach.
The 2 single beds are ridiculously high, very hard to get up in to. Would be a hinderance for an older person. Queen bed was good. Lighting in the house needs to be better than it is.
On the plus side, its a great location, clean and well stocked. Great yard for dogs and the pool would be great in warmer weather.

Excellent Place - we pointed out to the owners a couple of items that needed fixing

Spacious, quiet and private with lovely hosts. Easy walking distance to shops with your own access to come and go as you please. Will definitely book there again.

‘Birdsong’ is a home away from home, the tropical garden and patio was a perfect place to relax and is very private. Only a short walk to the beach, RSL and restaurants.
Thank you to Robyn & Jock for their hospitality and providing this lovely getaway on beautiful Bribie Island.

Secluded but within easy distance of all amenities. A brilliant place to recharge the batteries. Not far from the sights or even popping into Brisbane.
Thanks to Jock & Robyn for a wonderful stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It’s a beautiful property, close to everything. It has very accommodating hosts who were happy to assist where necessary. The space has a great set out, is tastefully decorated, and is wheelchair accessible with a shower and toilet seats, which made a big difference to us (thank you). I can’t praise our stay enough. And very dog-friendly! Thank you for the opportunity to stay here, we highly recommend it.

Lovely property. Great communication with the hosts. Close to off leash beaches and dog-friendly cafes. Stunning decor and surrounding garden. We throughly enjoyed our stay and look foward to a another visit. Our Labrador enjoyed his holiday as well. Highly recommend. Quiet and private location.

We were greeted by the owner who let us into the property and was told to sing out of we needed anything.
We were surprised by how spacious the accommodation was as it looked smaller in the pictures.
The garden was great for the dog to sniff around in and the deck has a nice outlook over the pool.
Unfortunately it was a bit cold for a swim, but maybe next time.
The RSL is an easy 2 min walk away and shops are not much further.
Would recommend and would stay there again.
4.8
Beautiful property. So quiet and relaxing. Can’t wait to stay again. Amazing!!

The living room leading out to the back deck was superb - extremely peaceful and inviting. The decor was delightful with the parquet floors and the leadlighting. A truly lovely stay.
4.8
While a very attractively decorated stay, it was also ideally set up for people using a Wheelie Walker or Wheelchair. Very restful surroundings and within easy walking distance to the RSL for someone using a Wheelie Walker. We always used the Courtesy Bus to return though. The single beds are quite high so that would be a consideration for older guests. We can thoroughly recommend and will be returning.
