About this property

Bruny Island Breakaway

Breakaway is a beautifully located holiday home above Nebraska Beach at Dennes Point, on the sunny northern tip of Bruny Island. The property sits on a bush block, home to many bird species and the occasional quoll or echidna.

Open-plan living areas and vaulted ceilings create an appealing sense of space and light. Double-glazed doors open out to a west-facing covered deck, providing panoramic views of the D’Entrecasteaux Channel. The water and sunset views from here are impressive.

Enjoy the warmth from the free-standing wood heater or heat pump during the cooler days or evenings. The building is well insulated with double glazing, so is cosy during winter months.

The kitchen is well-equipped for self-catering with an induction cooktop, some pantry basics, and a dining table that seats six. The barbecue and deck are perfect for outdoor dining.

The home has three bedrooms, two with queen beds and the third with two singles. All beds are fitted with electric blankets. Bed linen and towels are provided. There’s a light and bright bathroom, two toilets, and a washing machine.

Nebraska Beach is an excellent beach for safe swimming or rock hopping. Access to the beach is via a private right-of-way to a set of timber stairs, then a few steps across Nebraska Road to the sand.

As well as being so close to the beach, the house is within easy walking distance of the Dennes Point Jetty Cafe and Art Gallery. Opening hours vary throughout the year, so check their site for details.

Other local facilities include a nearby boat ramp and jetty. We provide tennis racquets and balls for you to use at the local public tennis court. Bruny Island is firmly on the list of Tasmania’s top ‘must-visit’ destinations. There are lots of great walks on the island.

Bring your own supplies or enjoy local produce, including berries, cheese, whisky, oysters, and wine. General stores are open 7 days a week at Adventure Bay and Alonnah in Bruny’s south.

Excellent
The house was in a beautiful location and was nicely furnished and fully equipped. Nice and practical kitchen, fantastic BBQ, beautiful and large deck overlooking the sea and the large garden. A few cosy seating areas scattered around the garden. In the garden we saw walibies, pademelons, yellow-tailed cockatoos etc. A private path leads directly to the beach. Communication with the landlord simply could not be better.

Fantastic Trip at Breakaway
Great property, very clean & also sheltered from wind. Lots to keep us occupied, swiiming at gorgeous Nebraska Beach, beach combing, relaxing on the deck reading, watching the various wildlife or playing a game from the range of board games that were supplied. Fantastic time had!

Brilliant Breakaway!!
We enjoyed our stay so much that we were delighted when we were able to extend the stay. Beautifully equipped. Very comfortable beds. Great garden surrounds with banksias for birds including the 40-spotted pardalote on our birdbath! Highly recommended

Fantastic home in natural garden setting
This is our second stay and we loved it just as much as the first a few years back. If you’re in to bird watching you can expect to see forty-spotted pardalote and beautiful firetail finch drinking and bathing at one of the garden bird baths morning and evening not to mention the honeyeaters. The house has everything and Dennes Point is just so peaceful and quiet. Highly recommended.
