Step Inside The 'Whale Song Shack' With A Dreamy Ocean View
The routine has started - which feels a little like work - home - work - home - work - home, interspersed with crazy early mornings where the kids can't find their gym kit / homework / bike keys - aaaagh! This could explain the copious amounts of getaways I've been sharing from the Southern Hemisphere lately. I mean, who wouldn't rather be reading a book in a cabin overlooking the sea right now?! And this one in Tasmania had me at the name: Whale Song Shack. Originally built by a local fisherman, the cabin has been transformed into a breath-taking holiday home where you can watch whales migrate, gannets dive and fish and fishing boats haul their catch from the window. Inside, the whitewashed interior is deliberately pared back - with wood details and vintage finds adding plenty of warmth - or when the temperatures really dip, there's a wonderful stone fireplace! Ready to dream?
Meet you there?
I've been contemplating writing another book lately - could you imagine what an incredible writer's retreat this would make? Gaaah! Amazing! For now, of course, it's all about staying put, but a girl can dream, right?! I hope this cabin has you dreaming today too - and given you a spark of mid-week inspiration for your own home!
See more photos and find more information about the wonderful Whale Song Shack (love their instagram too!).
Here are a few other cabins I dream about daily:
The Soot House - log cabin inspired by the rugged landscape
Cosy weekend escape: Warner's Camp
Charming lakeside cabin
The Shack on Bruny Island
And nearer home, my friends' cabin:

Have a happy Wednesday!
