About this property

The Shack on Francis

This little piece of paradise offers a modern, beachy family escape for up to four guests. Minutes walk to a safe swimming beach, this is the spot for you to relax in between your Bruny explorations! This home offers two generous bedrooms, walk-in shower, a full kitchen, cofee machine, BBQ, laundry and free WiFi. A heat pump heats the home to perfection. To top it off, enjoy wine on the expansive deck and feast on all of your Bruny produce - al fresco style!
The space
This idyllic beach home has been curated to provide everything you might need to enjoy a longer stay on Bruny Island and has been competitively priced.
A renovated home, the vibe is carefree and light-filled throughout, with large windows looking out on to the yard. A well stocked kitchen with heaps of space to get busy cooking for your loved ones is on offer and coffee is a breeze to make with the Delonghi coffee pod machine. A large bathroom with walk-in shower and vanity is complimented by Ancient Earth bathroom products. There is an extra-large laundry with washing machine and dryer. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable with hotel quality linen including toweling included. There is a fireplace in this home but it has been replaced with a heat pump to ensure guests are taken care of during the colder months. If you are wanting to eat out, Hotel Bruny is a fifteen minute drive away, and another ten minutes will take you to Bruny Island Premium Wines!
