Maydena Mountain Escape

Escape the busy city and unwind in the tiny town of Maydena where you awake to misty mountains and wild rivers on your doorstep! This original home is quirky but delightfully comfortable and warm. It has mountain views from every window framed with man ferns and rhododendrons. Maydena bike park is literally over the back fence! This lovely cottage is bathed in all day sunshine and backs onto the bike park so very quiet and private. Very spacious open plan kitchen, dining and living area, warmed by a wood fireplace and fully equipped with everything down to a great coffee machine. Separate lounge with heat pump, or use this as a 3rd bedroom as it has a fold out couch. All beds are equipped with electric blankets. Additionally the home has: Indoor bike storage , bike maintenance stand, washdown station. Large BBQ, firepits, (one overlooking the mountain-bike park, the other under front verandah for the drizzly evenings). You can find very basic food items at the local cafe a few minutes walk from the house but I recommend you do all the shopping for your stay in New Norfolk ( halfway between Hobart and Maydena) where there are well stocked supermarkets. There is also a small shop in Westerway, 15 mins east of Maydena, another cafe at the mountain bike park and a couple of restaurants nearby too. There are so many activities to indulge in around Maydena, take your pick from exploring Junee caves a short bike ride away, try fishing or kayaking in the Tyenna river that runs through town, or heading beyond to Mt Field national park, Styx Valley, Lake Pedder etc... There are plenty of maps at the cottage to plan your itinerary! Please note there is no TV. You can connect the scree in the lounge to Netflix if you have an account. There is a speaker in the laundry that you can connect to older mobile phones. Lock box key access
