A trip to Coles Bay and Freycinet National Park is not complete without visiting Freycinet Lodge, for a few nights, a day or just to take in the view. The Lodge offers four and four and a half star accommodation within Freycinet National Park, along with two restaurants and a casual bar. This is the only accommodation and dining available in Freycinet National Park and the view from the balcony is spectacular. To protect the delicate environment, the timber cabins and Coastal Pavilions, hidden in the She Oak forest, are linked by raised boardwalks. Freycinet Lodge is a great base from which to explore the area, including the famous Wineglass Bay, Hazards Beach, sea kayaking, cruising and more. E-Bike hire is also available. Nearby, you can explore the Freycinet Marine Farm, the seaside villages of Bicheno and Swansea and acclaimed cool-climate wineries. You can sample the best Tasmanian wines or whiskies with a tasting experience at Freycinet Lodge as well as dinner at The Bay Restaurant or Richardson's Bistro.

Your own private island just offshore from the beautiful Freycinet Peninsula, and around the corner from the word famous Wineglass Bay. This stunning copper clad lodge is designed by Tasmanian architect John Latham. We have beds for 10 guests as well as the communal "Birdhouse" where you get together for a meal, relax on the deck or by the open fire with a wall of glass cantilevered over the high water mark. When the sun goes down the penguins and shearwaters come in. You will be amazed by hundreds of birds arriving back to their burrows. If sealife is more your thing you may well spot a whale, dolphin or seal just off the island. If you fish, flathead and squid are abundant as well as mussels you can pick off the rocks and abalone and sea urchins under the sea. Please note this is a wild nature experience so expect the unexpected and be prepared for the adventure retreat of a lifetime. Please call us for our special offers.
