Hanlon House

Hanlon House (c.1904) offers quality bed and breakfast accommodation at Stanley, on Tasmania’s north west coast.

Hanlon House offers four and a half star ensuite accommodation in the heart of Stanley, just below The Nut. All rooms have queen-size beds, some have additional beds, one has a spa. You’ll be welcomed with delightful afternoon tea and still have time to look round historic Stanley, with Joe Lyons cottage, the cemetery (look for well known figures from history), museums, craft galleries and restaurants.

The next morning, after a generous cooked breakfast, visit Highfield Estate, another historic house. Climb The Nut (or take the chairlift; its 150 metres high), and fill your lungs with the freshest air on earth and your eyes with views of beaches, rocky headlands and green rolling hills. Spend day after day exploring the verdant countryside, national parks, and enjoying local produce; local seafood, crayfish, cheese, wine …

Hanlon House is a haven at the end of each activity-filled day - a friendly welcome, a home-cooked candle-lit dinner and a crackling log fire. After dinner take a torch and follow your hosts to see the local penguins returning from a days fishing, to their burrows in the sand.
