A place the west coast made.

Strahan is the epicentre of West Coast Tasmania tourism — and Florence Olivia is at the centre of Strahan. At 3 Harold Street, the Gordon River cruise terminal is 100 metres from your front door. The harbour foreshore is 50 metres. Dinner, the pub, the visitor centre, the supermarket — all within a two-minute walk.

The building itself dates from the early 1900's. The pressed tin ceiling, the ornate verandah railings, the stepped parapet — all original. We restored it, added proper beds and a kitchen that works, and left the rest alone.

The Bedroom

Original iron bed frame, warm lamp light, and a pressed tin ceiling overhead. The room is quiet in the way old buildings are quiet — thick walls, nothing competing for your attention.

Living room
The living room

Where you'll spend most of your time.

A deep velvet Chesterfield, original local artwork, framed historical photographs of Strahan, and a pressed tin ceiling overhead. The kind of room that makes you cancel plans to stay in it.

Kitchen
The kitchen

Self-contained. Fully equipped.

Original cabinetry, a full complement of cooking equipment, and a dining table for four. The kitchen is set up for people who actually cook — not just for the look of it.

Bathroom
The bathroom

A bathroom that holds its own.

Exposed brick, a timber barn door, deep charcoal towels, and glass-block windows that let light in without giving anything away. Every detail considered.
