Stroll the 100 meters down the hill to our local restaurant, Merestä Eatery . They have recently changed hands, so will be offering a super new menu and friendly service. Don't forget to book.
Then wander another 50 meters and you can be lazing or walking along the Beach.
Walk the coastline of our World Famous Bay of Fires. Or go south, along Skeleton Bay - and keep an eye out for the whales in season.
Walk down and take an amazing boat tour, which has a few different tours available, take in the whole of the famous Bay of Fires Coastline from the water, right up to the lighthouse, or visit the seals at St Helens Island. See Bay of Fires Eco Tours for more information or just sit and enjoy a close up view of the red rocks and the pelicans!
Walk around Grants Lagoon - this time look out for the birds and the wildflowers which include lots of wonderful native orchids.
Hop on one of the bikes in the carport, (don't forget the helmets) and peddle around the area.
Grab the two fishing rods and tackle we have supplied and go for a fish!
Book the local tennis court ($5) for a hit of tennis down on the waterfront, whilst the children play in the playground - have a BBQ down on the green.
Jump in the car and take a short 10 minutes drive into St Helens where I suggest you visit the galleries, the collectibles store, see the local craftsman at work at K Mueller Designs, and take a stroll down to the waterfront and grab a lobster to bring home for dinner. If you like golf there is a pleasant little golf course.
Bring your Mountain Bike and take an adventure trip along the World Class mountain bike tracks of the Blue Tiers.
A little further afield takes you to the St Columbia Falls, the Pyangana Cheese Factory, the Pub in the Paddock, the Shop in the Bush, and even the famous Blue Tiers. Or drive south along the Coast and visit Bichino, where you can see the blowhole and visit Natureworld to meet the cute Tasmanian Devils and lots more wildlife. Visit Wineglass Bay at Freycinet. Visit the wineries and a boutique beer brewery - whatever takes your fancy

Loved this house and its amazing view from all rooms. Just a short walk to the beach.
Great balcony that would be perfect for a summer stay. Would definitely recommend to stay here and will come back for sure!

Sea Eagle is about to be even more amazing - a new kitchen is being fitted in August - we already have a super new modern design refrigerator/freezer. Book now to enjoy the new improved Sea Eagle Cottage - still with the best views in town! Be quick though - we are booking out fast!

Brilliant stay
We recently stayed at Sea Eagle Cottages to celebrate our 50th Birthdays. The photos on the Web Site are completely realistic. We had such a wonderful time and the attention to detail was greatly appreciated. Thank you Jan!

Perfect Getaway
Simply brilliant. Everything we envisaged. Stunning views, fantastic layout. Loved it.
Sea eagle cottage is amazing and one of the best house stays we have had anywhere in the world. The view is incredible, the location fantastic and the house is so welcoming with so many thoughtful inclusions in the house. While it easily sleeps 6, we were just a couple so had plenty of room but was still great value. Would recommend to anyone.
Beautiful property with views even better than in photo. Well equipped kitchen Much appreciated that it had basic spices etc in pantry. Comfortable beds with direct access to deck. Just sorry we could not stay longer.
Sea Eagle Cottage is a gorgeous home and presents exactly as shown in the property profile. Jan is a very welcoming and responsive host and the house has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Being a 2 minute walk from The Hub pizza bar is also a bonus when you don’t want to cook dinner. Highly recommend.
My husband and I spent a lovely 2 days at Sea Eagle! We found everything we needed to be very comfortable. We could have stayed much longer and hope to in the future. Jan was incredibly helpful and also contacted us when whales were sighted so we could hurry to the view point to see them. The views are to die for and the location perfect for exploring the stunning Bay of Fires with easy access to St. Helens for shopping and meals.

Always happy to help guests see the whales. Best place to look at them is right from Sea Eagle Cottage deck! In season whales and dolphins are often in the bay, and can be seen playing while you sip your wine!

What a Spot!
Sea Eagle cottage was just lovely. The views of Binalong Bay are simply stunning - better than the pictures show if you can believe that. Everything was in excellent condition and the directions to find the cottage and suggestions of things to do in the area were really helpful. My son used the fishing rod provided and we visited the local restaurant just near the home. We'd love to visit again if in Tassie.

Thanks! The views are absolutely to die for. Come and see for yourselves, as Kylie said - the photos do not do it justice. Hope you caught some fish with the rods provided. If not we can now offer the services of a private chef (bookings essential of course). See you next time!
We had the best stay at Sea Eagle Cottage.
Stunning views from every window. Sunny days on the deck were so good. We didn't want to leave.
Jan was brilliant to deal with and made sure we had everything we needed.
We will definitely be back one day soon.

Wish we were there longer
What a beautiful place to stay. Perfect in every aspect with life time views. We were at the unit for around 18hrs & frankly thats too little time to enjoy everything the cottage has to offer. Next time I am surely going to make plan for a week. Words won't be able to justify the experience so won't write much...
Thanks Jan for accommodating our requests & giving us the best time of our Tassie trip :)
Strongly recommended!

Thanks Prashant, We did warn you that your stay was going to be too short! Great to hear you are coming back for a week next time. Remember we offer stay 6 nights, get the 7th night free! See you when you return. Regards
This is the third Binalong home we have rented, and it was the best overall. Close to the beach, Meresta and with stunning views. A modern comfortable house. Would definitely stay there again.
We loved everything about our accommodation , from the amazing view, location, house had everything we needed and more , very cosy with the heating for cold nights, local restaurant just down the road, definitely recommend with views that make you just want to sit and look all day
Located a little up the hill with amazing views of the beach and the surrounding mountains, this property is comfortable and equipped to a high level. We all greatly enjoyed our stay here and would readily stay here again.
A really lovely house with an amazing view. Well designed, very clean and well presented. Mid winter was a bit cold but heating was excellent. Must be amazing in summer, there is a beautiful balcony where you could spend all your time soaking up the view!!!
We loved staying in this outstanding beach home. It was beyond magical, and we honestly did not want to leave. The photos simply do not do it justice. The beds were the most comfortable we’ve slept in, the linen and pillows were also top class and super comfortable. Heated blankets with timers on every bed. The kitchen remarkably well stocked, every conceivable item provided to whip up a gourmet feast. Some pantry and fridge condiments provided, as well as plenty of tea options and coffee beans, although we used the coffee plunger also available. The home is super comfortable and very homely. We loved the couch on the verandah with sea views, and spent hours playing cards on the enormous outdoor table.
Thank you so very much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home Jan. I hope we can return one day, as we have wonderful memories of our stay.
Well presented property with a terrific balcony overlooking the lagoon and beach. Very clean and had everything we needed. No Netflix iview ect just free to air. Lovely property
