SLOW STAYS

Game, Set, Match. Pack your best tennis whites and set the navigation for one hour north of Hobart. Here you’ll find your perfect match: a sustainable getaway perched on a five-acre patch of East Coast paradise. Designed specifically for couples looking for nature served in style, The Pavilion, Tasmania, is a modular, open-plan abode overlooking a full-sized tennis court. Wake courtside on a king bed, wrapped in buttery linens, before hitting the rain-powered shower to prep for the day’s activities. Racquets at the ready, go full Wimbledon if that’s your style: Pimms in the sun, wood-fired pizza and barbecue lunch after smashing backhands across the net of the full-sized tennis court. Prefer downtime to deuces? Grab a book and plonk yourself on one of the bespoke daybeds or cosy up with a local Tassie riesling or pinot noir around multiple firepits. Tasmania’s iconic flora and fauna can be found on nearby bushwalks and nature trails so boot up and get walking. Or kick off the court shoes and stroll to Spring Beach’s white sandy shores for stunning sunrises overlooking Maria Island for a love-love scoreline.
