This unique dwelling is entirely off-grid and designed to bring the outside in. It 'floats' above the grasses and among the eucalypts with spectacular views across Georges Bay to the Tasman Sea. Minutes from the Bay of Fires and St Helens township, there is an abundance of adventure, local produce, and natural beauty close at hand. The dwelling, with a modest 60m2 footprint, is tucked into nine acres of private bushland. Inspired by the idea of a ranger base crossed with a bush hideaway, every element is designed with the environment in mind – coaxing you outdoors. Extensive double glazing brings nature’s finer details close-in to the living spaces while also drawing to the wider view. You may glimpse pademelons scuttling into the bush and superb fairy wrens darting around the native grasses in the courtyard. Sea eagles, black cockatoos, and pelicans fly above the treetops, while black swans gather on the bay below. Swansong’s tough corrugated exterior contrasts against honey-toned timbers and cork floors inside, creating an inviting atmosphere. The natural materials and understated furnishings have been selected to sit in harmony with simple living in the Tasmanian bush. The cabin ‘s two pavilions are connected by timber decking. A Japanese-style engawa (edge/veranda), constructed of web-forge steel extends around each; its many uses include a place to sit or a walkway above the surrounding native grasses and shrubs. The first pavilion combines kitchen, dining and living. Settle on the sofa and watch the clouds roll over the bay or curl up on the window seat as the sunset lights up the granite boulders on the opposite shoreline. The kitchen is equipped to create memorable meals. Our pantry is stocked with cooking oils, vinegars, herbs, spices, dry-goods and specialty tea and coffee. Across the deck in the bedroom pavilion a queen-size bed is plumped up with 100% pure linen sheets and bed covers. Cast a sleepy eye to the sunrise over Georges Bay without lifting your head from the pillow or sit out on the deck to bask with a morning brew. The shower ensuite is green and serene with a window through to the bush. Soft cotton towels and Aesop hand wash and moisturiser, shampoo and conditioner and body wash are supplied. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the sea ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit ### General - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Smart TV, fireplace, DVD player, books](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/54000000/53980000/53972700/53972698/f3875587.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### HEXAGON BEACH HOUSE - Great views of the Bay of Fires Binalong Bay - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 32 reviews CA $273 CA $415 total includes taxes & fees Oct 23 - Oct 24 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-23&endDate=2025-10-24&selected=53972698&PinnedHotelID=53972698&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/93000000/92960000/92951800/92951717/9d401f1f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Edge - an architecturally designed home with breathtaking views Binalong Bay - Kitchen - Washer - Parking available - Fireplace 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=92951717&PinnedHotelID=92951717&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101540000/101539100/101539088/d1ef8106.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The French House St Helens Break O'Day - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=101539088&PinnedHotelID=101539088&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/41000000/40210000/40203100/40203061/c3f502fc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### ARTHOUSE Bay Of Fires INSPIRING BEACH HOUSE Binalong Bay - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 9 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-02&endDate=2025-11-03&selected=40203061&PinnedHotelID=40203061&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33970000/33962200/33962136/d0968958.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Tin Shed Binalong Bay, Bay of Fires, Tasmania.
