Stanley TAS

Today we left the wild west and headed for the civilised northwest and the charming little seaside town of Stanley.

Unfortunately, The Nutt chairlift wasn’t operating due to high winds. Instead we enjoyed a lovely local produce lunch at the Stanley Hotel before making our way out to Arthur River at the western most point of Tasmania - crowned the 'Edge of the World'. It’s so remote that if you were to set sail and head west, you wouldn’t make landfall until you reached the coast of Argentina some 20,000 km away!

Our accommodation tonight is the Stanley View Beach House at Cowrie Point. A beautifully scenic cottage right on the water’s edge, complete with a lovely warm outdoor fire place on the deck looking back over The Nutt. Who needs to climb the mountain when you can enjoy happy hour looking at it 😁🍷Read more
