A one-bedroom, two-pavilion cabin with an environmental bent – designed to coax you outdoors.

The landscaped surrounds bring nature close in. Pademelons, superb fairy wrens and heath dragons inhabit the bush garden, while sea eagles fly overhead and swans coo on the bay below.

The building is oriented east, to salute the sun each morning. Bask in early rays from bed or outside on the deck with a morning brew.

The living pavilion is open plan with wall-to-wall windows so you never lose sight of the view. The kitchen is equipped to create memorable meals; cook inside or out on the campfire. Watch the shifting moods of Georges Bay from the sofa or the window seat, and if you land a rainy afternoon, there are books, games and a blue-tooth speaker to keep you occupied.

Across the deck in the sleeping pavilion is a queen-size bed plumped-up with quality flax / hemp linen sheets and bed covers. Store your clothing in individual wardrobes. There is a generous-sized window seat from which to gaze out over the bay. The ensuite is serene and green with a view through the shower into the bush.

Swansong has all the essentials without the excess.
