Prepare for cuteness overload at this charming two bed cottage tucked away by the Kermandie River in the Huon Valley. It’s a top spot from which to explore the surrounding area and you can bring your dog too as it’s super pet-friendly. Not only does your converted picker’s hut have a whole heap of historical charm (there’s 1923 newspaper clippings on the wooden feature wall of the master bedroom) but there’s some luxe mod cons too—think electric hot tub (yes please), wood-fired sauna and pizza oven. Want more? We reckon the outdoor breakfast bar is just the place to perch with a glass of the good stuff.

Not only is this South Tasmanian retreat just a 15-minute stroll from Cygnet village, the bird sanctuary and marina, but back at base there’s a hidden extra that will have the kids wrapped up for hours. There’s a cubby house in the garden that the littlest guests can call their own while the grown-ups fire up the barbecue. It’s not the only reason this spot is perfect for a family getaway. The main living space is huge and has a heap of games to play if the weather turns iffy and there’s a second living space where you can plug in the games console if you so wish. Feeling more adventurous? Head to the old chicken shed and you’ll find two kayaks, badminton equipment, a trampoline, cricket set, croquet, slack line and more.
