Lovingly restored with soft hands and a romantic heart, this 1960s shack opens its doors as a soulful seaside retreat for two.

Set on the edge of the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, overlooking the waters toward Satellite Island, this is a place to let the world slip quietly away. As you step inside, you’re welcomed by the scent of aged timber, the glow of a wood fire, and the gentle elegance of French-influenced interiors.

Curl up on the luxe daybed with a book and a glass of wine, or simply watch the shifting tides from the warmth of the hearth. A simple, well-equipped kitchenette gives you everything needed to prepare a lazy breakfast or a slow supper with local produce.

At night, retreat to the king bed layered in soft linen, where sleep comes easy with the rhythm of the sea. Outside, under a sky sequined with stars, an antique French bath waits on the deck - a deep, soulful soak with salt air on your skin and nothing but silence between you and the universe.

Mornings begin with birdsong. Evenings end by the firepit, the sky painted in deepening hues, the water reflecting the final golden light. Watch the weather roll across the channel, listen to the hush of the sea, and feel something inside you soften.

This shack invites you to slow down, to listen, to read, to dream. It’s a space to rekindle romance, to reconnect with nature and with each other.

Welcome to your own little piece of Bruny magic.
