Nestled in the foothills of Mount Mangana in Adventure Bay, Birdsong is a peaceful bush retreat with a breathtaking view. The house is secluded yet only a short drive from the main townships of Adventure Bay and Allonah on South Bruny Island. The perfect getaway for couples or small families. Birdsong comes equipped with everything you will need for a relaxing holiday - be it a winter break snuggling in front of the fire with a good book, a summer beach escape, or an exploration of southern Bruny. The property has two bedrooms - the Master with a queen bed and the second bedroom with two king single beds in bunks. With an open plan kitchen and lounge flowing to the large outdoor deck, you can sit back and soak in the peaceful bushland surrounding, looking out across Adventure Bay. You can also explore the 10.5 hectare property via the network of tracks weaving through the bush and rainforest. \- This property can sleep up to 4 people. \- Children are welcome and the cottage is well equipped with toys, books and games. Parents of toddlers should be aware there is a drop of 80cm off the deck. \- Pets are welcome - please let us know at the time of booking if you intend to bring your dog, and take care to clean up after your them. We unfortunately can't accept dogs who dig. \- The main area surrounding the home is fully fenced and includes an outdoor bath, fire pit and table tennis table. \- Fire wood and kindling are provided. \- A portacot and high chair are available on request. \- An outdoor 32 amp, 3 pin powerpoint is available should you have a portable fast charger for your car. There is also an easily accessible outdoor 10amp powerpoint for regular chargers. Guest Access There is plenty of parking by the house.

The house has a lovely, welcoming feel and has so many considerate touches. We had purchased food and supplies for our 3 days on Bruney Island and thanks to the hosts, all of the cooking and food prep supplies were there and easy to find. Other small touches like having the combustion heater and outside fire pit prepared with kindling. No shortage of books and games. The most difficult part was having to leave the property to do the magnificent walks around the area! Thanks so much to our hosts for entrusting us, and other guests, to this slice of heaven. ##### Andrew B.
