Set amongst the picturesque Coal River Valley wine country, Aquila offers indulgent, sustainable off-grid accommodation in Hobart for those wanting to reconnect with nature, take some time to disconnect from the outside world, and re-discover the simple pleasures that come with our stunning natural surroundings and beautifully appointed accommodation.
Step onto your private deck and sink into the clawfoot bath. Pop the bubbles and gaze out over the rolling hills to Kunanyi/Mt Wellington. Enjoy a picnic among the grapevines and watch the ladybirds, and as the sun goes down, slip into the wood-fired sauna and melt into the heat. Cosy up around the firepit and watch the stars twinkle.
Welcome to our patch of paradise. We’re Alice and Jason and our family has been farming this piece of Tasmanian bushland for decades. Aquila is named after the Tasmanian wedge-tailed eagle (Aquila audax fleayi), which we often see soaring over our land. We are deeply passionate about this land and the natural resources the earth and sun provide. It’s our pleasure to share these values through off-grid glamping and eco experiences that offer ultimate luxury and comfort in a unique country setting of space and freedom.
