270° of WOW
Perched above George Town, Northern Tasmania and the Tamar River, our architecturally designed eco-pod accommodation is your invitation to switch off, sink in, and let the world do its own thing for a while.
Designed for two, each pod is a tiny temple of understated luxury — think full bathroom, Tasmanian Oak king bed, kitchenette, window seat and viewing deck.
It’s your personal haven to rest, reset, and remember how to breathe — one ocean breeze, one deep exhale, one blissfully slow moment at a time.
Plus, it's the perfect, closest mountain bike accommodation to the Mount George MTB Trails (200m away)!
Less hustle. More hush. #podlife
Your eco-pod may be compact, but it’s loaded with thoughtful touches — and a few surprises. A king bed with organic linen, full bathroom, and a kitchenette with all the must-haves (yes, including a toastie maker — priorities).
The skylit bathroom brings spa vibes, complete with walk-in shower, LED mirror, and luxe fixtures. Our accessible pod includes all the same comforts, designed for ease and relaxation.
Stay connected (or don’t) with Wi-Fi, smart TV, Bluetooth speaker, and climate control — perfect for lazy mornings or cosy nights in.
For a true taste of Tasmania, you will be able to pre-order (from February 2026) one of our curated food and drink packages — ready and waiting in your pod on arrival. Each one’s locally inspired, lovingly assembled, and occasionally tweaked if supplies play hard to get.
You’ll also find we’ve stocked your pod with additional food, treats and tipples for purchase — just note what you enjoy and settle up before you go.
Eat, Drink, and Be Tasmanian
Café Bar
Our onsite intimate café bar celebrates the very best of Tasmania — from hand-picked local produce to boutique wines, craft beers, and coffee so good it might just ruin you for anywhere else.
We’re open on weekends and school holidays (8:30 am – 6:00 pm). Hours can vary with the Tasmanian weather and our moods — best check our socials or give us a buzz before you come by.
Pull up a chair on the café deck, gather around the outdoor firepit, or stretch out on the lawn — drink in the views (and maybe something from the bar) as you look out across George Town, the Tamar River, and Bass Strait.
Savour the Flavours
☕ Coffee, perfected – Rich, smooth, unforgettable. We pour locally roasted Ritual Coffee beans — your morning’s new best friend.
🍷 Tasmanian wines only – From boutique vineyards to iconic producers, every drop tells a story worth sipping.
🍺 Craft beers & ciders – A handpicked lineup of Tassie’s finest brewers.
🍎 Juices – Fresh picks from the Tasmanian Juice Press range.

Looking for the perfect spot to celebrate, unwind, or simply spend quality time together? The George Tasmania is available for exclusive group and site accommodation bookings, offering a one-of-a-kind setting where nature, comfort, and good company meet.
Our eco-pods, café bar, and landscaped grounds set the scene for everything from intimate weddings and girls’ getaways to corporate retreats, family gatherings, and milestone celebrations.

🧺 Essentials Package – Handy extras like sauces, crackers, chips, fruit, chocolate, and nuts — because snacks are a food group.Treats & Tipples
You’ll also find a tempting mini-selection of added food, treats and tipples inside your pod, available for purchase during your stay. Just jot down what you enjoy on the form provided — honesty policy style — and settle up before you head off. Prices are listed inside the pod and may do a little shuffle from time to time.
And if you’d rather let someone else handle the cooking, George Town’s cafés and restaurants are just a few minutes’ drive away — ready to serve up more Tasmanian goodness (and maybe a cheeky dessert or two).
