The Lair Swansea
The Lair sets a new standard in private, self contained luxury. This contemporary retreat reaches out over the land; the sweeping form drawing light and air into and through the building as the moods of Tasmania pour through each room.Against a backdrop of 40 unspolit acres of forest running down to the audible break of the ocean, we perched The Lair between the forest and the sea, laying it respectfully along the contours of the land; each and every room immersed in the view.



The Islington Hotel
Islington is a very special, small, luxe hotel with a long history and a large and delightful garden, affording quite special views of Mount Wellington. Decorated with fine artworks and furnished with antiques, Islington appeals to those who want the very best in life, surrounded by great service, presented in an atmosphere of serenity, luxury and tranquillity. Built in 1847, Islington is a fine example of Regency architecture recently restored to showcase its original glory and up-dated to include the little necessities and amenities our forebears over-looked, such as a mountain-view pavilion and a fine wine cellar.
