Escape to Sheepwash Bay, an authentic Bruny Island experience. You’ll find yourself on 37 acres where the forest hugs the wild coastline. Staying here is about simple living – bathing under the stars and sitting by the crackling firepit. Fall into the stillness of an idyllic way of life.
The Shack The Shack is an earthy, rustic cabin made from reclaimed timbers and hand-dropped bush poles. King Billy pine French doors open onto a deck with stunning views across the channel. It’s well known for its outdoor clawfoot bath, where the only passer-by might be a gliding eagle, a swift parrot, or even a 40-spotted pardalote, whose home is amongst the estate’s peppermint forests. This cosy off-grid retreat has a king-size bed and a roaring wood heater – but we recommend heading outdoors and following the trails from bush to beach. The Hide The luxe big brother to the shack. This intimate escape has sweeping views of the bay, visible from the linen-clad bed and the clawfoot bath. Surrounded by nature, this lush retreat invites a slower pace. A safe haven to settle into while you watch the show that nature puts on just for you. Beachcomb for seahorse skeletons, cast a line, watch the local wallabies, possums and quolls, or forage in the veggie garden. With a cosy wood heater and an outdoor shower to bathe beneath the stars, The Hide is all about simple living and slipping into the rhythms of Bruny Island. Events Sheepwash Bay is a dreamy coastal escape on southern Bruny. With 700 metres of private-access coastline and mighty trees, little wonder it’s popular for elopements, photoshoots and more. Oh, and did we mention the crusty wood-fired loaves made by the Bruny Baker onsite? sheepwashbay.com |
