Earl's Anchorage Accommodation

Falling in a westerly direction the beautiful site of Earl's Anchorage is heavily vegetated around each boundary, along the south by a magnificent stand of Kentia Palms, unique to Lord Howe. What appeals most is the sense of protection and privacy: a grassy field in the middle of dense vegetation, with the bungalows located down the southern boundary to maximise privacy, and the much desired northern light. Each generously sized bungalow is different, some more noticeably than others. Different roof shapes, window placement and proportions have been used to create interesting spaces. Every Living/Dining/ Kitchen has a northern aspect to maximise winter warmth, with direct access to a northern outside deck area. Each Living/Dining room has a unique ceiling shape from sweeping vaults to pitched, and each building has been carefully positioned to be separate and achieve a pleasant private outlook, while maintaining a connected 'village feel'. Most furniture has been carefully handcrafted by renowned Tasmanian wooden boat builder Ned Trewartha. using specially selected timber chosen to suit the character of each bungalow. An interesting boardwalk meanders through the whole site linking each bungalow and ultimately the proposed future restaurant building. New planting beds and mounding have been introduced to support the existing site planting, add to privacy of bungalows and integrate the boardwalk to the site.
