COTTAGES AT TARRALEAH

 
Tarraleah is a spectacular holiday destination on 300 acres in Tasmania's Central Highlands. Located along the popular Hobart - Strahan touring route, Tarraleah is a scenic two hour drive from Hobart, Launceston or the Devonport ferry terminal. Sitting on a high plateau on the edge of World Heritage Wilderness, the Tarraleah estate is surrounded by pristine lakes, rivers, streams, ancient forests, Alpine heathlands and mountains. The region is home to world-class wild Brown trout fishing and abundant wildlife.
 
The 4-star rated Cottages at Tarraleah are original 1930s art-deco houses. They have been beautifully restored and feature polished Tasmanian oak floors throughout. An open fire place completes the comfortable lounge and firewood is stacked on the back porch. The large 1930s style kitchen/dining room offers a self-catering option with all of the modern conveniences, including utensils and oven should you fancy cooking a roast dinner or baking a cake! Or you can use the barbeque.

The bedrooms feature Tasmanian handcrafted timber furniture and comprise two large bedrooms with king or queen beds and a third bedroom with twin single beds or bunks. Ideal for couples, families or small groups, the Cottages can be hired as 1, 2 or 3-bedroom. The bathroom is modern and includes a bath, and there is a separate toilet, laundry and carport. Fully equipped, including TV & DVD in the lounge room and books in the sunroom, The Cottages at Tarraleah are a 'home away from home'.

The Highland Store stocks essential supplies plus fresh produce and gourmet treats. For those who love to dine out, Tarraleah offers three great dining options. Tease & tantalise your taste buds at the licensed Teez Cafe & Lookout, offering big breakfasts, lunches, morning and afternoon tea. Enjoy fresh mountain air and sensational views as you dine on the balcony, or relax by the central wood fire with an espresso coffee, Tasmanian beer or glass of fine local wine.

  The Highlander Arms charms with highland hospitality, whisky tasting, icy beers on tap, games room, large verandah, hearty meals and cosy family dining room. The adjoining reading room was once the Tarraleah Library and is filled with fascinating memorabilia and books from a bygone era.

For an exceptional gourmet experience, dine in Wildside Restaurant. The 4-course evening meal features fresh island produce presented with passion and flair by resident chef Will Godman, and an impressive selection of 300 local and international wines.
