2 Bedroom House in Mount Rumney
Welcome to Mt Rumney Escapes – "Kangaroo House"
Escape to a peaceful retreat perched on top of Mount Rumney, surrounded by Tasmania’s stunning bushland. "Kangaroo House" is a fully self-contained 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home, set on a 150-acre off-grid property with breathtaking views of Seven Mile Beach, the rolling hills of Hobart, and beyond.
Why Choose Kangaroo House?
Rural Bushland Setting
Your adventure begins with a scenic drive up Mt Rumney, transitioning from smooth bitumen to a short gravel road winding through tranquil bushland. While the road is suitable for all vehicle types, please drive carefully as there are no streetlights, and wildlife is often active at night.
Modern Comforts in Nature
Enjoy the best of both worlds—cozy accommodation with modern conveniences in a peaceful, off-grid setting.
• 2 Bedrooms: Each room features king beds (or can be configured as two king singles upon request).
• Lounge Room: Includes a queen sofa bed and heating for year-round comfort.
• FREE Wi-Fi & Netflix: Stay entertained while surrounded by nature.
Unforgettable Views & Starry Nights
Soak in breathtaking sunrises and sunsets from your private deck. With no streetlights nearby, the night sky is perfect for stargazing—on clear nights, you might even catch the Aurora Australis lighting up the night sky.
Embrace Nature & Wildlife
As this is a true bushland retreat, expect to encounter insects, bugs, and native wildlife such as wallabies, echidnas, and blue-tongue lizards. You’ll also find friendly farm animals on the property. Bushwalking trails are available for those who love to explore the outdoors.
