Nice but way too expensive for what you get.

Good location, nice spacious cottage, looks good in pictures.

Shoddy renovations, such as painted over light fittings, whole cottage is on a noticeable slope, bathroom miles away from bedroom, giant laundry room but no washing machine, front door/balcony that leads to nowhere, dim and uneven lighting, very overpriced for a half-assed renovation

Not Pet Friendly or Wheelchair accessible

Clean, comfortable accommodation, driving distance to Alonnah centre and Bruny Hotel. Off-street parking. Large kitchen with everything we needed to cook a meal.

Advertised as pet-friendly but is not the case, this was the main reason we chose this property, we asked for a refund when we were alerted to this but were denied so had to pay for accommodation for our dogs on top of this accommodation. Also advertised as wheelchair accessible but is definitely not, stairs at back are a bit dangerous. Road outside very noisy, but understandable as it's a busy road into Alonnah and beyond. Small TV in interesting spot, no free to air TV but they do have internet and advertise you can use their netfix account, we asked for these details once we arrived but took a while to get a response, then when we tried the login details someone else was using the account, didn't get a further response until next day so couldn't watch their netflix until the next evening. Some good games in the cabinet but unfortunately some games missing crucial pieces/bits, a pawn from the chess set and the cover for mastermind - the only two we tried to play. Milk in fridge was best before 2nd November, we stayed 23rd-25th December. Bathroom also in interesting position and toilet roll holder too high for smaller children.

Excellent venue, clean and tidy renovated cottage. Would definitely stay here again if travelling to Bruny Island.

Quaint 1 bedroom cottage, nicely restored and decorated. Everything we needed for our time on Bruny Island.

Very Happy, thankyou for a great stay

Excellent central location. Exceptionally clean and well facilitated. I loved the outdoor fire pit. Good choice for a stay on the island.

A couple of board games would do well in case of bad weather during a stay.

Cozy and calm :)

We enjoyed the tranquility offered by being situated amongst paddocks. The cottage made great use of the small space and we felt quite at home and cozy. We also enjoyed having the TV there as well as the board games. There was an abundance of pots, pans, plates etc and we felt like we had everything we needed. It was easy to get around and go visit other locations nearby from the cottage. We also liked sitting on the deck and watching the wallabies at dusk.

we liked everything about the property but if we had one recommendation it would be to have a washer/dryer, as we often returned from hikes with dirty clothes and would have been nice to be able to clean them

It was a comfortable place with everything we needed.

We didn't find the steps leading into the place very good.They could easily become a trip hazard.

Gorgeous

Location was perfect,right in the middle with easy driving to all of our locations.Our cottage was immaculately clean and very homey and extremely well presented. Fully self contained with a full kitchen was a bonus as we like to cook our own meals mostly. Special mention to the Bruny Island rain water..omg♥️

We stayed an unusually long 8 nights,(according to the owner),for us it was the lack of a washing machine and fresh linen. The TV was in an interesting place too..🤔 It’s hard to find too many negatives as we absolutely loved our stay ♥️

Lovely cottage thoughtfully fitted out. A great place to stay on Bruny Island.

Thoughtfully prepared cottage a short drive from town. On the main road but minimal traffic noise. Smallish bedroom but comfortable and lovely sun coming in in the morning. Quality consumables- Twinings teas, Robert Timms coffee bags, plunger coffee. Really well equipped kitchen - stove, full sized fridge, multiple pots, frypans and pans, even a sandwich press and mixmaster! Good bathroom with very fluffy towels. Comprehensive folder with lots of useful information. No internet but Netflix available. The hosts clearly want visitors to be comfortable and have done a great job in that regard.

It was all great. Nothing to do with the accommodation but the queue for the ferry to the island was 2 hours for us and looked like closer to a 4 hour wait when we returned. No issues leaving the island.

Overall we enjoyed our stay on our first visit to Bruny Island

Location was very good for exploring the island. Well equipped kitchen. Comfy bed. Nice bathroom supplies

Fire pit area was overgrown and unusable. Written instructions for accessing Netflix needed. Toilet sliding door only opened half way Only one comfy chair in the lounge room

This was a bare bones accommodation which I wouldn’t recommend.

It was clean and kitchen was well equipped.

It was cold and poorly heated. The kitchen was the only room with a heater

Awesome

It center of the island to get to anything. Was home away from home feel. Loved the fire. Pub down the road awesome meal an the bread fridge was real yummy bread. I got the chance to site the penguins at the neck an was lucky enough at the same place to see my first Aurora, even though is had rained we still did evenry thing on the island and travelled down nearly all the roads in a normal car. Would definitely stay here again owner was never nice an easy to talk to when I needed help 🙂

Solitude on Bruny Island

This is a really comfortable rustic cottage that has been so thoughtfully equipped with everything you could need. Though it is away from the settlement areas of Bruny Island, it was a really lovely bush setting and very quiet and peaceful at night. It is quite central to reach most attractions and the Bruny Hotel etc. The weather was very wet and cold while we were there but at the end of our walking each day we came home and built a beautiful fire to warm and dry us .

The bedroom is rather small, but very cosy.

Little cottage on Bruny

Lovely little cottage with friendly feel. Warm and welcoming

Needs a couch so you can snuggle by the wood heater, only really uncomfortable outdoor chairs and 1 tub chair. Sat at the kitchen table to read my book while my partner used the tub chair watching movies on his phone in front of the heater. Tv in promo photo but wereunable to use it, sadly. Couldn't find any board games either No bread knife or serrated knife made it really difficult to eat our loaf purchased from the nearby "bread fridge" along the road. Unusual weekend really....bedside lamps were weird, globes pulsated, is that a kinky thing??

Pleasant little cottage well located close enough to the Bruny Hotel and General Store

It's a pleasant little cottage well located close enough to the Bruny Hotel and General Store + the Neck Reserve. Warmer months would be very nice with an outdoor area. Just about everything you need is there.

Some UHT milk left to make coffee/tea with would be nice The TV had no aerial. The fireplace had wet logs and fire starters. Perhaps some kindling might help. Some wifi would be handy as even my phone was in a black spot there Karen sent me several messages that were not received by me. This disrupted our plans a little so make sure to check in with Karen beforehand as messages seem to get lost in the booking.com system.
