From the hot-tub of the award winning Lodge at Tarraleah, peer down over Tasmania's spectacular landscape: lush green mountains and a deep gorge flashing with oversize trout.
EXPERIENCE
The Lodge at Tarraleah has nine spacious suites adorned with Tasmanian art. The bathrooms are outstanding, with private hot tubs that overlook the wilderness.
Tasmania's isolation makes it a natural showcase for Australian fauna. The specialists at The Lodge can show you the best spots to see platypi and hear lyrebirds. The Trump card for The Lodge at Tarraleah is the fishing, with over thirty lakes and streams within a 30-minute radius. The Lodge offers the Tasmanian custom of "sight fishing"; challenging you to spot and stalk a specific fish.
If you like to play a round, one of the highest golf courses in Australia is minutes away. The nine-hole course, lined with mature gums, is both beautiful and challenging.
The Lodge at Tarraleah takes fresh local produce and turns it into a four-course Tasmanian dinner at the Wildside Restaurant, accompanied by an extensive wine list. Relax after dinner in The Library with a whisky from their staggering collection.
