What a wonderful stay. Wendy and Malcolm have clearly built this place with love and warmth. The views are amazing, and the property is full of wildlife - including wallabies, potteroos, swift parrots and the endangered 40-spotted pardalote (which they have planted white gums on their property to try and encourage their breeding and survival)! The house is beautiful and every little detail has been thought through- from the decor and beautiful decorations and artwork, down to the luxurious linen sheets, soft towels, handmade soap and a huge decorative bouquet of fresh Aussie flowers. A special touch was arriving to freshly baked sourdough and eggs from their chickens on the table. The pantry is stocked full of goodies and all cooking essentials one needs, loose-leaf tea and coffee, and even a picnic basket and binoculars for watching the wildlife. The balcony is a perfect spot for watching the island wildlife on a sunny day, and the comfy lounge chairs are a perfect spot on a cool or rainy day. I spent many an evening snuggled up next to the fire. The location of the house itself is perfect for exploring Bruny- right in the centre- but because it is so far off the main road by private driveway, you’d think you were in middle of nowhere. You may feel you’re in middle of nowhere, but Wendy and Malcolm are just a msg away if you have any questions or need anything. The Bruny Island hotel is just a short walk or drive away, and they do great pub dinners (one of the only places on the island open for dinner). You’re best to do any food shopping and fill up with petrol before arriving on the island, as there’s little choice once you’re here. But you will be absolutely spoiled for local produce! Some of the best cheese, wine and small goods! I loved my stay on Bruny, and when I come back, I will definitely be staying at Sea Birds!
