Bonnie Brae Retreat

The Bark Mill is the perfect destination to stop along the East Coast, providing a diverse range of hospitality options in one venue. A scenic 1.5 hour drive from Hobart or Launceston, Swansea is close to wineries and magnificent scenery across Great Oyster Bay to the Freycinet peninsula. Swansea is the perfect location as a central spot for visiting the region. The bakery offers a deli-style dine-in menu and cakes and tarts, even our coffee is local. Wood-fired pizzas from the iconic water tank pizza oven are available for lunch and dinner. The bakery outdoor space includes a children's playground. The bar and grill, open for lunch and dinner, specialises in Tasmanian caught seafood, not your deep-fried seafood basket! The steaks are all Tasmanian and cooked to your liking on the char grill and of course all the traditional pub grub favourites. Live music on selected weekends through summer and winter. The bottle shop has a diverse range of beverages both local Tasmanian and mainstream favourites. A wide range of East Coast and Tasmanian wines are showcased on our Tasmanian wine wall. Large car park and coach parking facilities close to the entrance of the building and clean restrooms.
