A cosy cottage and the perfect place to unwind. Relaxing on the generous lounge in the front room, the large windows framing the towering Eucalypt trees, the sheep grazing in the paddocks and the afternoon light flickering on the landscape. Our time at 'Dovedale' was the perfect blend of doing and being. An easy drive north to the seaside town of Swansea, or a swim at either Saltworks or Bolton Beach. Back south to the town of Triabunna for the Maria Island ferry, IGA groceries and the Fish Van or onto Orford for delightful walks, views and the most stunning Spring Beach. Maggie provides many local tips and directions. When we weren't out exploring the East Coast, we were content with the peace and quiet, comfy beds and open fire in the cottage. It would be our recommendation to stay at least two nights, we stayed six and we still didn't want to leave. A hidden gem indeed.
