The Cottage

A quiet base for slow mornings, valley walks and fireside evenings

Nestled away from the hosts' family home, Allens Cottage feels calm and private, yet close to local eateries, cider tasting, farm gates and easy day trips. Expansive windows capture the valley light, and the deck is ideal for slow mornings with coffee or evenings with a glass of wine.

Inside, the cottage is deliberately practical: a queen bedroom, a single bedroom with desk, a portable cot for infants, renovated bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, laundry, reverse-cycle air conditioning, fast Wi-Fi and a wood fire with supplied firewood.

Settle in by the fireplace, watch a film, read, play cards or stretch out after a day exploring the valley.

Chickens at Allens Cottage

On the property

Chickens, native wildlife and country quiet

Guests often love meeting the chickens and watching the daily life in the valley. When the hens are laying, we provide fresh eggs for guests to enjoy during their stay.

Around the broader property, keep an eye out for pademelons, wallabies, possums, echidnas and Tasmanian nativehens - the fast, noisy locals often nicknamed turbo chickens.

Sightings are never guaranteed, but slow mornings and dusk on the deck are usually the best time to notice what is moving through the paddocks and bush. We also provide a torch for guests who would like to look for wildlife at night from the deck or balcony.
