King Island is off the northern coast of Tasmania, the island state that has many islands to brag about. You would be hard pressed to find one more beautiful or harder to get to than King Island - but it's worth the effort to reach this epitome of unspoilt land. Especially if you're a gourmand, because King Island is world famous for its cheeses and other local gourmet delights, making it worth the trip just to indulge yourself in the food and the peace and quiet.
This self-contained cottage is smart casual, and the catering is top end, right down to the homemade preserves in the kitchen amenities.
King Island has some of the best dairy and beef products in the world, which you can cook and savour in your cabin or eat out in the centre of Currie, the town. Sleeps six, so plenty of room for friends who like to swim, surf, fish, bike, sightsee or play golf. The weather is warmer than you think - not as hot as Melbourne in the summer or as cold as Melbourne in the winter.
