GLENBROOK HOUSE AND COTTAGE 
Accommodation in Penguin

Nestled in the Penguin Valley with its own  private surrounds, sits Glenbrook Cottage.  This historical miner's cottage built in 1903 is your ideal get away and home away from home.  Fully self contained and  very secluded overlooking beautiful native forest.

 Charming and Enchanting Cottage

      The authentic miners cottage offers:

  • 2 Comfortable Bedrooms

  • Fully Equipped Kitchen

  • Bathroom Laundry combined

  • Separate lounge and
    dining room

  • Balcony overlooking forest

Worlds away from the hustle and bustle. The cottage is very comfortable and ideal for couples as a romantic getaway.

It is also ideal for families, singles or groups as a holiday destination.

As you drive down into the valley, across the little bridge and over the creek you will feel as though you are stepping into another world. You enter into the secluded valley, peaceful and beautiful, yet only 3klms from the beach and the charming and picturesque town of Penguin, home of the big Penguin 

       

Glenbrook House and Cottage sits on 50 acres of seclusion, in the heart of the valley.  We are a designated land for wild life and conservation area for Tasmanian fauna and flora.  An abundance of wild life await you.

Start the day with freshly baked bread bought to the cottage every alternate day and enjoy the breakfast provisions which are included in the tariff.   Then wander outside and listen to the sound of the birds.  Relax and read a book or go for a stroll along the beach, perhaps have a coffee or lunch at one of the restaurants or cafes in the seaside town of Penguin only 5 minutes drive away.  You may wish to take a walk into our forest, around the hazelnut orchard and listen to the sound of the bubbling creek as you feel the stress disappear.

On other days you may wish to take a day trip to one of the many diverse locations such as the iconic Cradle Mountain.  Perhaps visit the beautiful caves at Guns Plains or see the Tasmania Devils at the Wild Life Park.  The majestic Leven Canyon is just a short drive away as are many spectacular waterfalls.  

In winter toast your toes around the cosy log fire and watch a movie from our DVD collection, warm up with  some of our delicious home made soup.

If you want a break or just enjoy being in nature then Glenbrook Cottage is the perfect place to relax and unwind.
