Winganah Cottage – A Peaceful Country Escape Winganah Cottage is a self-contained retreat in the Tasmanian countryside – peaceful and private, yet close to the natural beauty and attractions of the Tasman and Forestier Peninsulas. We’re ideally located between Dunalley (4 km) and Murdunna (3 km), just 1 km from Dunalley Bay Beach and 12 km from Marion Bay Beach, once home to the Falls Festival. To the south lies Eaglehawk Neck and Pirates Bay Lookout (12 km), with the Three Capes Walk and Doo Town nearby. Enjoy scenic walks at the Dunalley Canal or the Murdunna coastal track, and discover hidden gems like Carlisle Beach (1 km north) and Eaglehawk Neck Beach (10 mins south). You can hire e-bikes at Marion Bay and ride along the coastline. Many great restaurants and wineries are close by: Bangor Vineyard Shed (4 km), The Lanterns Cafe, The Cannery, and Dunalley Hotel (all within 5 km). Fresh coffee awaits at Cubed Espresso near Pirates Bay. The Bream Creek Market is held on the first Sunday of every month. At the cottage, spend your evenings around the outdoor firepit under the gum trees, toasting marshmallows under the stars. Wake to the sounds of birds, kookaburras, chickens, and sheep. Guests are welcome to feed our two friendly alpacas, Maisie and Godiva, and meet the resident sheep. We’re a semi-retired couple living next door and happy to offer local tips – or give you complete privacy if preferred. Our property is also home to chickens, alpacas, kangaroos, possums, and wallabies. With free parking and plenty of walks, beaches, and attractions within 10–20 minutes, Winganah Cottage is the perfect base to explore Tasmania’s wild beauty – or simply relax and unwind.
We’re a semi-retired couple living next to the cottage on a separate property. We love the peaceful country lifestyle and share our land with sheep, alpacas, chickens, kangaroos, wallabies, and possums. No matter the weather, we’re always out boating, fishing, or hiking and would be happy to share local tips – or leave you to enjoy complete privacy. We hope you enjoy your stay at our cottage as much as we love living in this beautiful part of Tasmania.
We’re located halfway between Dunalley (4 km) and Murdunna (3 km), with Dunalley Bay Beach just 1 km away. The popular Marion Bay Beach, once home to the Falls Festival, is only 12 km from the cottage. The monthly Bream Creek Market is held on the first Sunday of each month and is well worth a visit. In the opposite direction, a 12-minute drive takes you to Eaglehawk Neck and the quirky Doo Town, full of fun and unique sights. Be sure to stop at Pirates Bay Lookout for breathtaking views and a fresh brew from Cubed Espresso. For nature lovers, the Dunalley Canal walk offers a peaceful stroll or bike ride along the water, where you can watch boats pass through the opening bridge. Bike hire is available nearby, making it easy to explore the beaches and coastline. There are plenty of great dining and wine experiences close by. Bangor Vineyard Shed is just 4 km away, while Phoenix Farm Kitchen, The Cannery, and the Dunalley Hotel are all within 5 km. Further south, national parks, farms, hikes, and scenic lookouts are all within 10–20 minutes’ drive. In the evenings, relax by the outdoor firepit under the gum trees, toast marshmallows, and enjoy the peaceful sounds of birds, kookaburras, chickens, and sheep. Guests are also welcome to feed our friendly sheep and alpacas, Maisie and Godiva.
