A Farm Stay Made for Tasting Your Way through Stanley
Why just taste the region when you can take it home for dinner? Borradale Stanley is a beautifully restored Edwardian homestead set on a 163-acre working beef farm overlooking the rolling farmland and coastline around Stanley.
The four-bedroom homestead is yours to settle into, with spacious living areas, a farmhouse dining table, full kitchen and plenty of room to slow down with family or friends. Outside, take in the farm and coastal views, wander the property or find a spot on the verandah and simply enjoy being in this pretty special corner of Tasmania.
For Tasting Trailers, The Larder might be the best bit. It’s stocked with a curated selection of Tasmanian produce available to purchase, including local wine, whisky and gin, Cape Grim beef, Stanley octopus, charcuterie and cheeses. Add seasonal herbs and produce picked straight from Borradale’s kitchen garden and you’ve got the makings of a very good North West Tasmanian dinner.
Then use Borradale as your base to explore. Stanley, The Nut and the coast are close by, while local seafood, oysters, artisan cheese, Leatherwood honey and small-batch spirits are all within easy driving distance.
Stock up along the Tasting Trail, head back to the farm and cook up your finds around the big farmhouse table. Sometimes the best table in town is the one at your accommodation.
