Stanley Tasmania

At Stanley,  see one of Tasmania’s truly iconic attractions - "The Nut" - a volcanic plug deposited millions of years ago. Visitors can ride the chairlift to the top or follow the path to the top of this geological feature. There are also new walking tracks surrounding the Nut, so put on some comfortable shoes. Stanley was the birthplace and home to Tasmania’s only Prime Minister, Joe Lyons. Stanley is a historic seaside village that will excite and stimulate your senses. There are also many things to do in the surrounding area's, so you will never be bored.

Visit Highfield House, The Van Dieman's Land property homestead, beautifully renovated to draw you in to the history of each room and experience life of the occupants from a completely different aspect.

Observe the history:

• Construction started in 1832 for the Van Diemen's Land Company chief agent Edward Curr.
• Later additions by John Lee Archer, a colonial architect, were built over two years to 1845.
