Your Pod
Everything you need for a comfortable base beside the national park
Welcome to your pod
We call them pods, but there's nothing makeshift about these modern, self-contained apartments. Greg and Rachel designed them for comfort, quiet and a simple base from which to explore Mt Field National Park.
Whether you're here for a slow couple of nights, a family adventure or a solo reset, we hope you love your stay.
Check-in: from 2:00 pm · Check-out: 10:00 am
Self check-in with your room number and digital door code (sent by email before arrival).
Self-contained kitchen
Fridge, two-burner stovetop, microwave and dishwasher in every pod — plus the basics for a comfortable stay.
Heating & cooling
Heat pumps keep you toasty in winter and cool in summer. Sometimes you'll want both on the same day — this is Tassie, after all.
Free satellite Wi‑Fi
Fast, free satellite internet in every pod. Access details are waiting for you inside.
Rainfall showers
A proper rinse after a day on the tracks — guests keep mentioning the showers in their reviews.
A look inside
Comfortable spaces to settle into
Practical kitchens, warm living spaces and a deep sense of quiet after a day in the park.
