Pump House Point, nestled on the shores of Lake St Clair in Tasmania, is a stunning blend of history and modern luxury. Originally built in the 1940s as a hydroelectric power station, the site was used to house equipment for pumping water to nearby power stations. Over time, the pumphouse and surrounding area fell into disrepair, but in 2014, it was transformed into a unique boutique hotel that preserves its industrial charm while offering a top-notch retreat.
The location itself is breathtaking, with the pumphouse perched right on the water and sleek cabins extending out into the lake. The property’s role in the 2015 film 'The Light Between Oceans' brought it international attention, with unique setting becoming an integral part of the film's atmosphere.
The rooms are spacious and stylish, many featuring floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning lake or forest views. The onsite restaurant offers seasonal menus highlighting local produce, and there’s also a cozy bar where you can unwind with a drink while enjoying the views. For those looking for ultimate relaxation, the property also offers private outdoor hot tubs, perfect for soaking in the serene surroundings.
If you're an outdoor enthusiast, there’s no shortage of activities nearby. You can explore the hiking trails around Lake St Clair, which offer everything from easy walks to more challenging treks through ancient forests. The area is also home to a range of wildlife, including wallabies and platypuses, so keep your eyes peeled. In winter, the nearby Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park offers opportunities for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.
Come stay at the remote unique hotel that combines natural beauty, rich history, and modern amenities, with plenty of outdoor activities to make your stay unforgettable.
