Meet the owners of Eaglehawk Pavilions, Cath and Dave.
We are only recent arrivals to Tasmania. Having lived on the South Coast of NSW, the lure of Tasmania was an easy one and when we first visited we knew this was where we wanted to be for the rest of our lives.
We first saw the Pavilions a few years ago and were captivated by their location and uniqueness. When the opportunity came up to be the new owners of the Pavilions, it was an easy decision. We enjoy spending time there but also enjoy sharing the opportunity with our guests.
We are captivated by the rugged beauty of the Tasman Peninsula, drawn by the amazing surf breaks and everything else that the Peninsula has on offer. We fell in love with the breathtaking coastline, the many walks on offer and the area’s deep and long history. We also enjoy the wineries, distilleries and the food – but hey that’s Tasmania!
Eaglehawk Neck is the small town where Eaglehawk Pavilions is situated and forms the natural gateway to the many attractions of the Tasman Peninsula, including the Port Arthur Historic Site. The Neck is also a natural geological wonder with striking rock formations like the Tessellated Pavement, and nearby Tasman Arch, Blowholes and Devil’s Kitchen. There is an abundance of wildlife and marine life living in the area and if you’re lucky, you might even spot endangered wedge-tailed eagles or migrating whales. If you’re wanting to bask in the warm Tasmanian sun, you can stroll down the hill to Pirates Bay beach where you’ll be met with stunning white sand and crisp blue water. Feeling more adventurous? There is a wide range of activities to do in the area including lot’s of short and long walking trails to explore, surfing, diving or even take a scenic flight to see the breathtaking coastline from above.
Our Pavilions are very special to us, they represent everything we love about the area and the beautiful state of Tasmania. The never ending views and only being a short stroll to the beach, the ability to do a lot or to do nothing, and the promise that no two days are ever the same.
We hope you enjoy our Pavilions as much as we do!
