The Eagles Nest experience

  1. A whole Nest to yourself

    Four private villas set apart across the farm, with no shared walls and no neighbours passing your window. Close the door and the place is yours.

  2. Run by the family who built it

    Eagles Nest began as Des Brown's dream and is still run by Des and his daughter Sheree. When you call, you're talking to the people who know every Nest by heart.

  3. Slow mornings, quiet nights

    No schedule, no lobby, no rush. Mornings start with coffee on your own deck, and evenings end with the stars instead of streetlights.

  4. Made for your occasion

    Anniversaries, proposals, birthdays or a long-overdue break. Add a private chef, a massage or a romance package, and we'll take care of the rest.

Here, wellness isn't something you schedule—it's woven into every sunrise, every quiet moment and every evening spent gazing at the stars.

Discover why guests from across Australia and around the world return to Eagles Nest Retreat for romance, relaxation and an unforgettable Tasmanian escape.

The Region

Tasmania's outdoor art gallery.

Ancient wilderness, scenic drives, lakes, wildlife and food trails, then back to your own private sanctuary before dark.

Cradle Mountain · 55 minutes away

Ancient wilderness.

Dove Lake, the boardwalks and the overland tracks that made the place famous. Close enough for a full day out, far enough that you come home to quiet.

The view from the deck.

The range sits right across the valley and changes all day, gold at dawn and blue by late afternoon. Most guests never get further than the deck on the first morning.

Green farmland and a dam below Mount Roland, seen from the air

Sheffield · seven minutes away

The Town of Murals.

Natural vistas and a collection of murals right through town. Drop into the information centre for walks, wineries and places to eat, then allow yourself a few days to fit it all in.

North west Tasmania

Scenic drives and long lunches.

Lake Barrington and Lake Gairdner, the cheese and cider makers along the way, and the north west coast beyond them. A full day, or a slow half.
