The cabin- wake up to the sound of birds

Beautiful cabin with lots of surprises such as breakfast muesli and granola. Lovely chat with the owner. Our only problem was finding the address which was not on the Stayz site. Following a pin drop point didn’t work.

We wanted to visit Bruny island and also visit nearby places of interest so Flowerpot was a good base. Cabin had everything to cook your own food and there was also a barbecue outside. We enjoyed our stay there

Best find

We loved this cabin. I often need to clean a place before I can relax and stay. This cabin was so clean, for many this isn't an issue. But I was immediately comfortable and could just use everything without my OCD taking over. Honestly, places like this are hard to find. The hosts were amazing, the cabin was beautiful. We would stay here again in a heart beat.

Relaxing and rejuvenating

As a busy business owner, I was looking for a quiet escape to do some work and also relax. I was not disappointed. The cabin was beautiful and waking to the sound of birds was delightful. Although the owners lived on the property they were very respectful of my privacy and delivered the most delicious breakfast every day. The cabin was exceptionally clean and had all that I needed for a few days away. Thank you Diane, I can’t wait to come back.
