Awaken to the ever changing glorious pre-dawn light. Crimson, red, purple and orange colours wash the sky and Great Oyster Bay. Watery greys look equally majestic from Avalon. Look out for the white bellied sea eagle that passes every morning.
Enjoy the delightful breakfast provisions and plan your day or don't plan your day - just let it evolve. You can simply sit and read the interesting books from the Avalon collection, swim at the secluded beach at the bottom of the path, go fishing, walking, collect shells or - head to Swansea or Freycinet to enjoy the splendor of the east coast.
As the dance of the evening sky unfolds cook yourself up a storm in Avalon's beautiful kitchen using your own goodies. Or embark on creating a memorable meal using our 'Wursthaus' gourmet mini bar provisions; luscious eye fillet steak, game keepers sausages, chicken bocconcini, cheeses, olives, crusty bread, soup, pasta and sauces all ready for you to prepare.
Light the fire, pour a glass of selected Tasmanian wine and watch the moon rise over the Freycinet Peninsula or gaze at the stars. You can watch a DVD from Avalon’s library or just snuggle up on her lichen inspired orange couch. Sleep in the Stuart Houghton made Tasmanian oak beds, dream the evening away and awaken to the glorious pre-dawn light.
Surrendering yourself to the Avalon rhythm is a unique experience.
Art & Architecture
Avalon places its guests within a living work of art, a Tasmanian crystal palace, one of elegance and light.
Award winning architect Craig Rosevear says that his steel girder and glass design is a resolution between the practical requirements, comforts of a home and the natural beauty of the location.
Avalon is built to surround you in the natural beauty of this place in luxurious comfort.
"The dramatic site on the ocean side of the Tasman Highway ensures this will remain one of the state’s most recognisable dwellings. Thankfully it is a project handled with care and commitment by the owner, and uncompromising skill by the architect"...Extract from the citation by the Royal Australian Institute of Architects(RAIA) given upon receiving a 2005 Residential Award in Tasmania.
