History, country charm and Australia’s best cider

In the rustic surrounds of an original apple packing shed built in 1942, learn about the Huon’s fascinating apple heritage through the eyes of the Smith family.

You can try a tasting paddle to see why Tasmanians go mad for cider, and why Willie Smith’s has been awarded best cider in Australia a record four times. Stay for a hearty meal with a menu focused on the finest regional products. The small providore gives local producers an outlet where they can showcase their products and produce.

Also on site is a working alembic copper still used to distil cider and produce apple brandy and liqueurs. Made in Tasmania and based on a 16th century cognac still from France, it’s the only one of its kind in Australia.
