Welcome to Bruny Island

The place is as isolated as you would want. It’s at the end of a bumpy 4km driveway, on the edge of a 3km beach and I didn’t see a single other person for the two days I was there, only curious cows. And Deepak who came to help me with the heater. The fitout was done by people who understand the important bits (milk, torches, good bed linen, cleanliness, maintenance) and don’t bother with the fancy stuff. The negative bits are not the fault of the managers, but you have to know if you're going to stay: THE OPTUS SIGNAL IS CRAP. Telstra is probably ok, but for the phone, it was absent most of the time, with brief windows every few hours. Inside or outside the house. So prepare for not having comms. This lead to an additional problem as I couldn’t figure out the heater, needed to ask for help and sat huddled in a blanket as I waited for the Optus satellites to tilt around the earth.. It was a warm blanket and the seas in Cloudy Bay were spectacular. Eventually I got a signal and Ben, who got Deepak, who showed me the hidden control panel on the heater (it was a new heater; the control panel now has a label on it). It was a comfortable comforting cabin in a profoundly beautiful place and I could have stayed there for months. I just would have nipped over to the mainland to pick up a Telstra sim.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Bruny Island Lodge! Everything was perfect for our large group and the kids couldn't get enough of the trampoline, totem tennis, pool table and all the other fun things to do at the Lodge. The accommodation was excellent - fully equipped with everything we could possibly need, warm, cosy and inviting, with plenty of room for all. The grounds and surrounds were also stunning, complete with fire pit for added atmosphere, overlooking the stunning vista. Two nights wasn't long enough and we will definitely be back soon! Thanks to Ben and the team for such a fabulous experience.

Great place! Great location! Awesome winter getaway.

Absolutely stunning part of the world. This house is amazing, secluded and private with amazing views. Close to the beach and loads of other adventures close by.

A very special property in a beautiful part of the world. We loved our stay at Sainty's Creek Cottage and can't wait to return there...2 nights is just not enough time to take in the silence, the wonder of the mossy garden, the bird life at the creek and the local walks through forests. A relaxing home away from home and we really appreciated how easy it was to check in and out, thank you so much :)

What a beautiful property in a stunning location. Every detail was taken care of and we thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at the Cloudy Bay Beach House.

The Sainty's Creek cottage was super cute, cosy and lovely to hang out in during a rainy Tassie weekend - we loved all the wood and the handmade feel of the place. Definitely worth travelling further down the road to check out the headland at Cloudy Bay, which is gorgeous. We spent lots of time spotting wildlife, and of course enjoying Bruny Island cheese and wine next to the fire. The coffee machine was a lovely addition, and the rooms and furniture were clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay again!

This has to be best holiday home in Tasmania. Our stay was sublime even with very Autumnal weather. The views are top 10 as are the house furnishings. Lots of great wildlife and walking tracks. If you want to really get away from it all this is the place to do it. We will be back.

Thanks for such a wonderful trip. The boys had so much fun surfing all the cool breaks around there. The scenery is magnificent and everyone was so hospitable. The food was great and we loved the accommodations. We really enjoyed the boat ride too. Thank you again for such a great experience.

This part of Bruny is very special, and it felt like we were on our own private beach. It was great to be "off the grid" and have a simpler existence for a few days. The cabin is well set up with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Highly recommended.

The most relaxing weekend away in a long time. Surrounded by peace, tranquility and nature. The food was delicious from all the locally sourced seafood, cheeses, breads and much much more. Thank you.

The cabin feels like the most isolated sanctuary on an island which is entirely a sanctuary. Our stay offered a time to experience the simple life, with enough creature comforts to feel cosy. The sunset views from the couch draw a close to perfect days of beach walking, bird watching and exploring coastal heathlands.

Bruny Island Cabin is a truly amazing! Not for everyone but if your one of those who likes to get away from it all, this is for you! Great views, lovely long walks along the beach. It may not be one of the flashiest along Cloudy Bay Beach but it has all you need & is very comfortable & it certainly has the easiest access to the beach. I would certainly return there when I am next on Bruny Island

A lovely night spent here on the way through to Cloudy Bay. Very cosy in a nice quiet setting.

A truly lovely spot where we were fortunate to spend a couple of nights. Very sad it couldn't have been a week of solitude. Thanks for everything Ben.
