The Birdhouse - Diamond Harbour

Welcome to the Birdhouse – a beautiful guesthouse amongst the Bellbirds.

Located in the heart of Diamond Harbour, only a 10-min walk to the ferry wharf or the beach so you can leave your car at home. The Birdhouse is a self-contained sunny garden guesthouse nestled in our backyard.
 

The space
Originally the site of an aviary built in 1975, the Birdhouse has had several rebuilds leading up to this cozy and cool garden guesthouse with modern interior; comfortable queen bed, kitchenette, indoor table/seating area, and en-suite bathroom with shower. Enjoy a relaxing hot soak in the outdoor wood-fire-heated hot tub, that we’re delighted to prepare for you at a pre-arranged time and $30 fee.

The guesthouse has free wifi, and table & chairs for eating or workspace. The kitchenette is not self-contained but has kettle, toaster, mini-fridge, dishes, cutlery, French press coffee maker, wine glasses and tub-side plastic cups. Blissfully free of TV and telephone, with a collection of books (on birds of course). Bedding linen and towels provided.
Guest access

The Birdhouse has free parking on our driveway and is then accessed along a path beside our house to the backyard and down stone steps. The guesthouse and deck are entirely yours for the duration of your stay.
 

Other things to note
1. Option: the wood-fire-heated hot tub is a relaxing experience that we prepare for you to be ready at a pre-arranged time for $30 extra fee. Because it is a freshwater tub, it is cleaned and filled for each single use, then emptied, cleaned and closed afterwards. Sorry no jets, lights, or bubbles, but yes there is warmth on a cool day and stillness on a calm starry night.
(Please note we are not comfortable offering the tub during pregnancy as temperature regulation is not guaranteed with wood fuel, and we do not treat the water)
2. Option: Laundry washing machine with powder (and clothesline drying) $4, Laundry drier with softener sheet $4
3. Smoking/vaping is not permitted anywhere on the property.
4. Flying drones over residential areas, including ours, is not permitted.
5. The Birdhouse is not suitable for children.
