Belmont

A waterfront retreat metres from the edge of Daniel's Bay — where seabirds wheel overhead, wallabies wander at dusk, and the D'Entrecasteaux Channel glows at sunset.

A place to truly unwind

Little Belmont is a classic waterfront cottage sitting on an acre of land overlooking Daniel's Bay in peaceful Lunawanna, South Bruny Island. Metres from the water's edge, it's a rare spot where the only thing on the agenda is nothing at all.

Unwind by the firepit as magical sunsets paint the D'Entrecasteaux Channel in gold. Gather around the wood burner on crisp evenings. Watch white wallabies drift through the garden at dusk. Wake to seabirds and shifting sandbanks.

The cottage has a charming retro character — of its era and proud of it — with modern comforts layered in: luxurious king bed, fast Starlink internet, a Smart TV, and a gas BBQ on the timber deck with uninterrupted bay views.

Superhost Edward and co-host Georgina are responsive, experienced hosts with 12 years of welcoming guests to Bruny Island.

Lunawanna, South Bruny Island

Bruny Island is reached by a short ferry crossing from Kettering, south of Hobart — about 45 minutes from the city. Once on the island, Little Belmont is in the quiet village of Lunawanna on South Bruny, close to the end of the road and far from the crowds.

The island is one of Tasmania's best-kept secrets: world-class food and drink, wild beaches, ancient lighthouse walks, prolific wildlife, and almost no one else around.
