Places To Stay Near Butlers Gorge

[INASNT]

Yo tassie people I need to come down week after next to Butlers Gorge for a project we have had going there for the last few years.

I have never been there before but I guess I drew the short straw and need to make the trip this time LOL.

I was told that where people stayed at near Butlers Gorge has been demolished recently, so I need to find a new place to stay for around 1 week.

What are some decent towns,motel,hotel near there I can look at staying?

considering ive never even heard of the place i was interested to know where it was! In the middle of nowhere!!!!

Tarraleah is the closest town, the only accommodation i could find was Tarraleah Chalets which don't open till October 2006

new norfolk is about the closest major town

Great Lake Hotel at Miena? Pub at Hamilton? bit closer than New Norfolk.

What about Ouse? Any decent places to stay there?

The Lyell Highway is a nice smooth run in both directions isent it so even if i have to drive 30-40 in the morning and night to a hotel it shouldnt take that long?

Dad goes to ouse a fair bit, i'll ask him if he's seen anywhere to stay there.

Ouse is a pretty inbred town :lol:

Thanks people for the advice.

Ended up getting a few cottages at Bronte Park Highland Village.

Bronte Park was a realy 1 horse town but the most important things were good, ie the bar and restaurant at the highland village.

Spend a few days in Hobart and I dont know if it was because I was stuck in bronte park and working for the whole week without sighting any decent looking woman for the whole week but damn did I see some fine woman in hobart near the cafes off liverpool road!!!!

Saw a few lines in the city also, but alot of cops also

bronte park ! lol! thats like the centre of tasmania, i reckon you could go there if there was an invasion or nuclear disaster and never be found.

at least you got somewhere though, what exactly were you doing?

I am a mech engineer and our company was fixing the mini hydro at butlers gorge for hydro tasmania which we installed a few years ago.

I have to go back next tuesday/wednesday to recommission the machine before it goes back online.
