A group of 8 of us plus a toddler stayed at Nickie’s property over New Years and had a wonderful time.
The property is located on a hill overlooking Bruny Island and the view is extraordinary, photos really don’t do it justice.
The house is accessed via a very steep driveway and opens up to a secluded spot. We had regular visits from a mother and baby wallaby plus a lot of other wildlife.
The house it’s self is spacious with plenty of room for a large group.
The bedrooms are decent sizes and well furnished.
One issue we had was that the master bedroom had no door, just a Japanese screen for privacy which didn’t cover the whole door frame. This room is next to the living room which meant it was hard to create privacy or quiet for the couple staying there. It would have been good to know this was the case before we booked.
We also stayed in summer and there was only the one ceiling fan in the living room and no other fans or air conditioning which meant we needed to keep windows and doors open to cool the place. Many of them didn’t have fly screens though so the house was inundated with huge flies.
Unfortunately the dishwasher broke before we arrived which wasn’t great since we had 8 people, we did get a small refund for the inconvenience.
I would still recommend Nickie’s place as it’s in a truly magical location and such a special place but it could just do with a few final touches to warrant the price tag.
