Accommodation at Mt Paul
Mt Paul on Freycinet offers two self-contained luxury lodges, suitable for couples. These lodges were designed in conjunction with the Tasmanian School of Architecture as part of an Environmentally Sustainable Design project, and the owners have followed these principles as closely as possible during construction. That does not mean that luxury has been compromised.

These lodges present a unique experience of comfort in a natural setting, with king or twin beds, large hob-less showers, digital televisions and DVD's with surround sound. Graced with exposed timbers, polished granite and wooden floors - the luxury inside blends with the pure wilderness setting. The lodges are fully insulated and heated with a log burner and electric heaters, making them cosy and atmospheric at any time of the year. They also have a fully-equipped kitchen and washing machine. If you wish to dine out in the evening, there are several high quality restaurants only a few kilometres away.

Mt Paul on Freycinet has already received accolades from clients, who have described it as "awesome" and "breathtaking". But don't take other people's word for it - come and have a look for yourself.

Area Information
Mt Paul is a noticeable landform north of Coles Bay on the Freycinet Peninsula. The twin forested dolerite peaks, joined by a saddle, rise some 260 - 280 metres above sea level, and have stunning views over the whole peninsula. Mt Paul has a 100 year modern history including rough sheep grazing, coal mining, and tree felling. In the 1990's, logging operations brought access tracks and a cottage, and in 2004 two timber lodges for visitors were built.

Today Mt Paul gives the appearance of a natural landscape, and adjoining the National Park, forms a buffer zone for wildlife, offering peace and privacy for guests. The area offers a wide range of activities and gastronomic experiences, including bushwalking, kayaking, four wheel motor biking, sea charters, scenic flights, wine tasting and oyster farm tours.

A botanical survey in 2003 identified 16 different forest communities on the property, of which 6 are endangered and 5 are vulnerable. 70 species of plant have so far been identified, including the rare Forest Germander, Juniper Wattle, and Winged Spyridium, and the vulnerable Slender Tick Trefoil, and Small Leafed Glycine. There is abundant wildlife including wallabies, wombats, echidnas, quolls, possums, devils, sugar gliders and other small marsupials. A bird species list has yet to be compiled, but Mt Paul enjoys a great variety of forest and sea birds, and overlooks the breeding grounds of the black swan.
