On the hill above Stanley township, this family-owned inn looks out over The Nut, the beaches and Bass Strait beyond. Most rooms are angled at the water, with balconies set for the view, and a lounge bar keeps a happy hour for guests coming back from the day's walking. The Nut's chairlift, Rocky Cape and the evening penguin returns are all close by. Quality Tourism accredited and run by its owners, it suits families and travellers after a quiet, view-led base on the north-west coast.
