of up to eight guests, you will be transferred to Maria Island, to spend three days exploring pristine beaches, tall ancient forests and world heritage sites teeming with wildlife.<\/p>\n
A fully-inclusive experience of all meals and drinks. By night, enjoy an aperitivo by the fireplace, then close each day with a three-course evening meal in the comfort of heritage-listed Bernacchi House – your comfortable accommodation for the two nights.<\/p>\n
Distance:<\/strong> Approx. 2 km, or 12km if taking one of the afternoon walks. <\/div>
<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]Guests will be collected from their Hobart CBD hotel from 7:30am to 8am. After an introductory briefing with The Maria Island Walk guides and fellow guests, it\u2019s time to depart on a 90-minute scenic drive to board the ferry across to Maria Island. Keep a look out for whales and dolphins during the short cruise.<\/p>\n
Disembarking at Darlington, it\u2019s a short walk to historic Bernacchi House, your accommodation for the next two nights.<\/p>\n
After lunch, choose to relax at the house in front of the fire or join a guided walk to the stunning Painted Cliffs or Fossil Cliffs – their colour vivid in the afternoon light.<\/p>\n
Distance:<\/strong> Approx. 6km, or up to 18km if a mountain peak is chosen. <\/div>
<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]After a leisurely and relaxed breakfast, the amount of activity is up to you.<\/p>\n
For the adventurous there is the choice of walking one of two island summits, worth the adventure for their incredible views from the top. Or,\u00a0 if a relaxed pace today is more your style – choose from one of two circuits that pass historic sites with free-roaming wildlife along the way.<\/p>\n
Returning mid-afternoon, relax with a glass of wine and canapes on Bernacchi House’s front verandah or in front of the fire, before settling in for another delicious evening meal.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”rgba(211,183,136,0.15)” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”4%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”4%” left_padding_desktop=”10%” left_padding_tablet=”5%” constrain_group_4=”yes” right_padding_tablet=”5%” left_padding_phone=”10%” constrain_group_6=”yes” right_padding_phone=”10%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” id=”Day-1″ advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_phone=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” bottom_margin_tablet=”50″ bottom_margin_phone=”50″ column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Day 3″ use_theme_fonts=”yes”]

heritage-listed house in a Convict World Heritage area.<\/p>\n
In 2022, the home was refurbished with key elements undertaken by Laura Stucken, local designer and co-owner of award-winning Van Bone Restaurant. Despite the refresh, the historic property remains true to its original fabric and story.<\/p>\n
Local artisans incorporated in the project include Scott Van Tuil, who designed the sandstone side tables and coffee tables in the home as a nod to the famous Painted Cliffs of Maria Island, and Simon Ancher Studio, who supplied floating beds using Tasmanian timber. Soft furnishings were sourced from Hobart-based Featherston Interiors and vases from local potters across the Mercury passage at Dunalley, Tim and Tammy Holmes (Potters Croft), are dotted through the house.<\/p>\n
A comfortable and cosy stay, and a short walking distance from the ferry terminal to\/from Darlington to the mainland.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”5%” bottom_padding=”2%” top_padding_tablet=”15%” top_padding_phone=”10%” constrain_group_5=”yes” bottom_padding_phone=”10%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” id=”FoodWine” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_phone=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”left-right” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”0.4″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” el_class=”ImageHover” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.5″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” gradient_type=”default”][vc_custom_heading text=”Food & Wine” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]Our guests often say the food is a highlight of their trip.
