Relaxed living
Settle in by the fireplace, watch a film, read, play cards or stretch out after a day exploring the valley.
Grove, Tasmania
Allens Cottage is a cosy 2-bedroom retreat on 25 private acres of bush and pasture, minutes from Willie Smith's Apple Shed and the best of the Huon Valley.
The Cottage
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.
A queen bedroom and single bedroom suit couples, solo travellers, small families or a quiet work-and-rest escape.
The kitchen includes a dishwasher, full-size fridge, oven, cooktop, microwave, Nespresso machine and the utensils you expect.

Huon Valley Accommodation
Based in Grove, Allens Cottage is well placed for travellers searching for Huon Valley accommodation with space, privacy and a rural outlook. Spend the day around Huonville, Cygnet, Franklin, Geeveston or the Hartz Mountains, then return to a warm cottage and a wide-open view.
Cider, food, local produce and regular events just minutes from the cottage.
The mountain backdrop that gives the valley its distinctive skyline.
Wander down to the dam, follow the bush tracks or watch the animals from the property.
On the property
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.
