About this property

Wedge-tailed Eagle Studio

A Warm & Welcoming Nature Escape in Kettering
Discover a peaceful and luxurious retreat in the Tasmanian bush, just minutes from the ferry to Bruny Island. Located in Kettering and sharing its tranquil setting with the Raptor Refuge—a working sanctuary for Tasmania’s birds of prey—this private studio invites you to unwind in nature while supporting a vital conservation effort.

Inspired by Tasmania’s most powerful raptor, the Wedge-tailed Eagle Studio is one of two unique accommodation spaces on the property. While both studios celebrate the beauty of native raptors, this listing showcases the Wedge-tailed Eagle Studio, designed to reflect the strength and majesty of its namesake.

With warm, earthy colour tones and natural textures, this studio exudes comfort and connection to the landscape. It features beautiful artwork, including a striking portrait of the Wedge-tailed Eagle by Belinda Kurczok, immersing you in the spirit of the Tasmanian wilderness.

Features include:

King Bed – A spacious and serene sleep experience for couples or solo travellers.

High-End Bathroom – Underfloor heating, climate control, and elegant finishes for ultimate comfort.

Kitchenette – Equipped with an induction cooktop, convection microwave with steam functions, coffee pod machine, and essential kitchenware.

Entertainment – Smart TV with Wi-Fi streaming so you can relax after a day of exploring.

Cozy Living – Enjoy the ambiance of a gas log fireplace, full insulation, and double-glazed windows for year-round comfort.

Private Deck – Step outside to take in sweeping views of the surrounding bushland and glimpse local wildlife like Bennett’s wallabies, pademelons, and soaring eagles.

Shared Firepit – Spend evenings by the fire beneath the stars, surrounded by nature.

Eco-Friendly Design – Built sustainably, with rainwater collection and minimal environmental impact.

Enhance Your Stay
As a guest on the same property as the Raptor Refuge, you're uniquely placed to explore the lives of Tasmania’s threatened birds of prey. Private tours can be booked separately to enrich your visit, offering a rare behind-the-scenes experience with these incredible animals.

Support Conservation
Every booking directly supports the Raptor Refuge, helping protect these extraordinary birds and their habitats for generations to come.
The apartment is heated and features a separate bedroom.
