About this bed and breakfast
“Birch Lane” is a fully self-contained, super comfortable piece of tranquillity in the heart of the Huon Valley in southern Tasmania. The apartment is self-catering with full English breakfast provided. Guests will need to shop for other provisions.
Your hosts, Peter and Michelle, travel a lot, and we know what we like. Comfort, cleanliness, convenience, privacy, peace and quiet, and natural beauty close to shops and tourist attractions. “Birch Lane” has all this, plus a few surprising extra touches to make your stay memorable and comfortable.
Fully equipped kitchen: “Birch Lane” boasts a dishwasher, full-sized fridge freezer, oven, cooktop and pantry, wine glasses and dinner settings for 4 people. Want to cook a roast? Or some scones for afternoon tea in your private courtyard? No problem. All the extra little bits and pieces are in the pantry.
Laundry: Hiding in your large, spacious bathroom is a washing machine, dryer and laundry trough.
Private Courtyard: a beautiful sunshiny spot where you can sit year-round and enjoy the garden with afternoon coffee or a glass of wine. (see our gallery for pictures). In October the wisteria is dripping with purple blossom. All the flower photos in the gallery are courtyard flowers. And when it’s raining, there’s a comfy chair where the sun streams in to sit enjoy the garden from inside the French doors. Our cat is happy to join you any time.
Queen-sized Bed: The queen size bed has a latex mattress, luxurious linen and a selection of pillows in varying fillings and profiles for guest comfort.
Extra Guests: The apartment will accommodate extras: a foldaway bed with a custom-made mattress and feather topper for comfort., a double sofa-bed in the lounge with a memory foam topper, and a porta cot is available for babies. See booking page for rates.
Air Conditioning: Your apartment is air-conditioned with reverse cycle heating and cooling.
Unlimited free Wi-Fi., Chromecast and a selection of DVD's. Plus a work station.
Guest Parking: Guests have access to covered parking and completely private entrances.
Staying one night? No problem. We prefer a minimum 2 -night stay but a single night is fine with us. And if you are enjoying your stay, you can book for longer subject to availability.
Travelling in an RV? Call or email us to discuss how we accommodate the RV. We have land to park on.

Michelle and Peter plus Zoe (the Dog) are so welcoming and made us feel right at home. Decor of the cottage is gorgeous facilities all you can think of. Was so wonderful waking up to a view of green paddocks with cattle grazing.

This property is just right for two people, we were very comfortable. We particularly appreciated the beautiful views, the very well equipped kitchen, comfy bed and pretty local walks. Close to Cygnet and Huonville, the location is great.

We have just had a very enjoyable stay in Michelles lovely apartment. A perfect place to stay to sightsee, chill in the small settlements along the river or close enough to Hobart for some city stuff. Thank you Michelle & Peter for dealing with a couple of our "townie" problems so promptly.

We spent a couple of weeks here in December, over Christmas and New Year. This was a lovely spot to come back to each evening after a day negotiating the winding roads of Tasmania. The Huon Valley is lovely although the only views you have from this cottage are from the bathroom window or in the carport. However, the little courtyard offered a relaxing spot to sit amongst the flowers, morning or evening.
There are many walks in the area (Pelverata Falls and Snug Falls) and plenty to see and do within an hour or two drive. The Tahune Air Walk was definitely worth the drive.
The cottage is well equipped although COVID has resulted in a very pared back pantry, but who wants to do too much cooking on holidays anyway? The addition of laundry facilities is a huge bonus and save hours sitting in a laundromat.
Michelle is lovely to deal with and responds quickly to any request and will help in any way she can.

The apartment was delightful with thoughtful touches everywhere. Easy to find off highway. Wonderful electric heater in sitting room. Hot water in shower and we were able to wash and dry our clothes after Michelle helped us with front loader. Michelle was a warm and engaging hostess who also provided a large compendium of information.

Perfect Accommodation While Working Away
We had to work in Huonville for a week and a bit and this was the perfect place to stay. 10min drive from Huonville, warm and comfortable, good wifi, best priced.
Will stay again :)

A comfortable place in a beautiful environment
Birch Lane is a comfortable place from which to visit southeastern Tasmania. The apartment is clean, freshly painted, equipped with quality appliances, comfortable bedding and pretty much everything you could need on a holiday stay. The ceramic cooktop is touch-controlled and a bit tricky to operate until you get the hang of it. Michelle and Peter are friendly, warm, welcoming and helpful people. Whilst they live close to the apartment (in fact the apartment is an integral part of their own home), with separate entrances it is more than adequately private. Sapphire the cat, and dog Zoe, will indeed be there to welcome you but won't wear out their welcome. If any problem at all just text Michelle and she or Peter will be there in a flash. There is a very nice 2-car carport on a concrete floor right next to the apartment from which you can enjoy a stunning view across the truly beautiful Huon Valley. Everything shown in the photo presentation is pretty much as it is except it gives a somewhat misleading impression of spaciousness. Whilst the apartment will sleep five it does not provide living space for five since there is not much room to move once the (comfortable) sofa-bed is deployed. The dining table only seats four. Five people - or even four - would not want to be shut in there if the weather turned bad. The toilet has access from the main bedroom and the bathroom/laundry. Whilst not really a problem, the shower has only a single fixed glass transparent half-screen that isn't wide enough to prevent water from escaping to the floor. Summarising, Birch Lane is a charming and beautiful place to stay. Unless you're something of a rally driver Hobart is the better part of an hour's drive, but a nice drive. Huonville, a busy town with everything, is about 10 minutes. If you want to visit Bruny Island, Birch Lane is well on the way. As a family of four we greatly enjoyed our stay at Birch Lane and look forward to doing it again.
