Banyula Cottage

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Dunalley, TAS

Our cottage is located at the back of our 1 acre property still far enough away so privacy is not an issue, being able to enjoy the peace and quiet of our beautiful country town while listening to the birds chirp away. One highlight of our cottage is the loft bed allowing a fully functioning kitchen, room for a lounge & dinning table as well as a neat bathroom. Only a couple minutes walk to the local cafe and bakeries and a short drive to local attractions. We are happy for guests to walk around the property but to stay to the back of the property and the cottage driveway and to not walk around the main house or the dog yard. Please note that within Tasmania mobile phone coverage is scattered when not with Telstra and sometimes Optus. Due to being on tank water we do not offer guests laundry facilities but there are some at Port Arthur. We do not have a fire on offer for guests to use.
