Fox Hole

The Southeast


Encircled by wandering chickens, this compact grey-painted weatherboard cottage is just a few streets from the Woodbridge water, with a couple of comfy chairs on the porch in which to sit and watch the weather. Inside you'll find one bedroom (plus fold-out couch), and a mod kitchen with Tasmanian-timber benchtops. Dinner by arrangement. Sleeps four.
