“Birch Lane” is a fully self-contained B&B between Cygnet and Huonville, Southern Tasmania; A stylish, comfortable, tranquil apartment with a private courtyard set in a working farm in the heart of the Huon Valley but close to shops and tourist destinations. Fully equipped luxury kitchen: with dishwasher, full-sized fridge freezer, oven, cooktop, pantry, wine glasses and dining table/ setting for 4 people.

Your hosts, Peter and Michelle, travel a lot, and we know what we like. Comfort, cleanliness, convenience, privacy, peace and quiet, and natural beauty close to shops and tourist attractions. “Birch Lane” has all this, plus a few surprising extra touches to make your stay memorable and comfortable. We are around if you need us, invisible if you don't. We have a little, old, over-friendly dog, and 2 cats.
Our property is on a hill overlooking the Valley. It is quiet and peaceful with clean air. Our closest neighbours are the cows in the paddock. We are set amongst working farms. From Hobart: Travel south to Huonville, turn left just before the Huonville Bridge and drive 11kms towards Cygnet. Turn left up Cradoc Hill Rd. "Birch Lane" is less than a km from the highway, 3rd driveway on the right with the Silver Birch trees lining the driveway. The lush Huon Valley is Australia's best kept secret for foodies and eco-tourists. It is also popular for festivals and culture and close to all the major tourist attractions in Hobart and the Derwent Valley.
