STANLEY

 

Stanley is situated at the base of the very unique landform of Circular Head which juts into Bass Strait on Tasmania's north coast.  The head is affectionately known as "The Nut" due to its shape.  Stanley is only a 10 minute drive from the Bass Highway about a 3/4 hour drive from Burnie and 20 minutes from Smithton.  The town has a rich history and warrants a half day visit or more if you have the time when in the area.

 

The picture above of Circular Head, Stanley and Godfrey's Beach is taken from just next to the Highfield House property.  Stanley as well as the larger town of nearby Smithton have a wide range of accommodation and cuisine options.
