The Lodge of Stanley

Stanley is a picturesque and charming town that any traveller will delight in. The entire town has preserved the character of yesteryear in its architecture The Lodge, built in 1915 is a house perfect for a family, group of friends or couples.
All you need to bring are beach towels and what you are going to eat and drink.

Charming Historic Masonic Lodge. Ocean views, the beach, The Nut, Tarkine Forest Adventure, sleeps 8. Escape to this very comfortable well-appointed private residence.

This 3-bedroom house (two queens and two singles with trundle beds) boasts a beautiful bathroom with claw foot bath, stunning entry and hallway, but best of all a wonderfully large living area with a fireplace and a fantastic view of the Nut for you and your friends to relax in. If the sun is shining, take advantage of the cleanest air in the world and sit yourself on the back deck; look over the back fence to the beach and Bass Strait or up to the omnipresent Nut that truly marks Stanley out as a spectacular getaway destination.

Perfect stay in Stanley
Great historic property with all you need and close to what you need to see. Paul nicely let us check in early - big thank you! The house is lovely and the location is close to The Nut and beach boardwalk for penguin viewing (free). Would stay there again next time we get to Tassie. Only thing is the water gets scalding hot, so careful if you have little ones.

Great location and ample well appointed facility.
Spent two days in Stanley and found the location of the Lodge easily as the building makes a statement in the street scape. It was close to the main town area and provided a casual walk to the beach and all that Stanley has to offer.

Quirky and comfortable
I really enjoyed staying at the lodge. It had everything one would need but was very homely and comfortable. It was convenient to everywhere. The place had some wonderful features and it was a place that made you feel so much at home that you could have happily live there. Would certainly look to visit again in the future.

It was beautiful accommodation, with high ceilings, an amazing outdoor area where you have the view of the nut track, and the sound of the ocean. The location was perfect. There were even lemon slices in the fridge for us, which was a personalised touch. We loved the house, and will cherish the memories of our stay.

Visiting Stanley? Lodge in the The Lodge
The Lodge is a former Masonic Temple which has been revamped into a large three-bedroom home. The body of the hall contains the spacious lounge and dining areas, a small study and the kitchen sits overlooking the living areas. The house is well heated and comfortable, and has all the cooking equipment you would need for a self catered stay. The Lodge is located at the north end of the main street, at the base of "The Nut". The Stanley Hotel (great meals there!) and other eateries are all within a short walk, and the one hour walk around the township is not to be missed. Godfreys Beach is only a minute's walk away, and penguins can be found here at the right times of day. We will certainly look to stay at The Lodge next time we visit this lovely and quiet township.
