WALK with the WOMBATS
Lodge guests get the opportunity for special access and to personally interact with teenage wombats, bottle feed joey (baby) wallabies and act ‘mom’ to all the other babies in our sponsored animal shelter. Ditch the Dior but bring the camera, this is ‘hands on’ engagement with some of Tasmania’s amazing wildlife including sugar gliders and possums.

BREAKFAST with the PLATYPUS
Mountain bike ride downhill to a local platypus hole to see these amazing creatures frolic in the water while your guide cooks you breakfast and then escorts you back home via 4WD. These are truly wild creatures but we know where they live..
|
GOLF?
Championship links GOLF or classically pure - plus WALLABY hazards
Fly to the exquisite Barnbougle Dunes course from the Lodge, or step back in time with pretty little local courses. Golf to a crowd of kookaburras or try it at night with miners lamp headlights, luminous golf balls and a pitch invasion by 50-60 wallabies, for an experience others simply won’t believe until you show them the photos.
|
WILD TROUT, Fighting TUNA
Fly fish for trophy wild trout in rivers, streams and lakes or pick the right date for blue fin tuna chasing. If screaming reels is your kind of music, we can help – while the other half chills in the spa, is massaged or walks in the wilderness. We call it “guilt free fishing”.

Delicious, structured sessions dedicated to guest’s interests and regional or seasonal produce. Everything you always wanted to ask but never found the chef to tell you. No cameras..

WHISKEY Touring
We will take you to peat bogs and distilleries and then take your tongue and wrap it round a selection from our collection of over 200 single malt whiskies. Chef matches dinner to malts or you chose something rather special from our wall of wine - one of ‘Australia’s Wine Lists of the Year’.

UNDER the SKIN
