About this house rental

Situated in South Bruny, this lovely house for R 4,087 per night is a great option for your next break. MURES CLOUDY BAY RETREAT is UNIQUE. Located in one of Bruny Island's most remote and spectacular destinations, this modern retreat is so close to the action that the floor to ceiling double glazed windows are dusted with salt straight from the wild Southern Ocean. Not only is this sun drenched haven situated in the remotest of Bruny Island wilderness, the modern solar and wind powered, open plan style retreat, sits alone on 35 acres of private property behind the dunes with nothing but sensational views to interrupt your day. The expansive vista of the rugged surf beach, sheer cliffs, vast ocean horizons and seabirds in the southern sky are the only big screen entertainment required. The rear balcony offers a protected north facing shelter that backs onto unspoilt land featuring a sheltered gully and creek. The property is bordered by a Parks and Wildlife Protected Reserve, adding to its unique privacy. Your doorstep activities include spectacular walks through the sand dunes and along the beach, a reliable quality surf break and world class fishing or diving...or you can choose to simply sit back and exhaust yourself with the view. The accommodation includes 1 large King bedroom and the 2nd bedroom has a double lower bunk, single upper bunk and a single bed. The bathroom has a spa bath and separate shower. A modern kitchen together with a woodfire in the lounge area makes it perfect for a family getaway or secluded escape for two. Mures Retreat is 30 minutes away from the nearest general store so please bring all your favourite food and beverages along to this cosy nest for the duration of your stay. Will and Jude Mure welcome you to share their special retreat.

The photos don't do this place justice! It was far nicer and exceeded our expectations by miles. The location has a sense of grandeur and the house is lovely and simple, but large and filled with light and the sea. It's clean, well equipped and has stunning views and a sense of isolation. We felt very privileged to spend Christmas here. The check-in process was flawless, thanks to Jon, the property manager who met us at the gate and guided us in and showed us how everything worked. The downsides are: the access - 4.5KM on a bush track, which is pretty rough at the end. An SUV, preferably 4WD, but at least with plenty of clearance, is advised. There are no window coverings so it gets light early in summer. Although the house has stunning sea views, the beach is not easy to reach, which is a little frustrating. As it was Christmas holidays, there was a bit of traffic on the beach to and from the Cloudy Corner campground, which reduced the sense of isolation a little, but which was not intrusive. The listing should emphasis these points more strongly as visitors need to be prepared. Overall, an unforgettable experience. We'd love to visit again.

Our expectations were surpassed. The weather was miserable and we were cocooned in this beautiful, spacious home with a roaring fire and breathtakingly beautiful scenery. So remote and peaceful, like we were the only ones on the planet. Everything we needed to be very comfortable. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back.

The down side with this property is if you are old or over weight beach access is all most impossible a nd dangerous. The road to the property is hideous and if you have a new car expect possible scratches. If you have a 4x4 and like climbing up and down a hill to get to the beach I give this property 5 stars.
