The Church at Haven on High

The Church at HAVEN ON HIGH is the perfect retreat for guests who who want to immerse themselves in a piece of Tasmanian history. The 145-year-old heritage-listed building features striking architecture including stained-glass windows, a vaulted ceiling, original hardwood floors, commemorative plaques, and decorative moulding. All booking revenue goes towards restoration and maintenance of these historic features.

The thoughtfully converted church is particularly well-suited for couples and small families.

The Church at Haven on High sleeps up to 5 guests.

From the primary bedroom on the mezzanine level, you have the perfect vantage point to take in the full volume of the church and watch the stained glass windows project colours throughout the home as the sun sets each evening. The mezzanine level has two sleeping areas separated by a dividing wall - one with a queen bed, the other with a single bed. The vestibule on the ground floor contains bunk beds set up like a 'pod hotel', offering a private sleeping space for two - best for children given the small space.

Tucked underneath the mezzanine is a full bathroom, a powder room, and a spacious kitchen equipped with everything you need to prepare home-cooked meals - plus a Nespresso machine to start the day off right. This adjoins the sanctuary, where you will find three comfy sofas facing a large fireplace and wall-mounted TV, a work station, a dining table, and a board games area.

Staying at Haven on High is a restful experience, and we’ve prepared relaxing activities to help you lean into the rejuvenating qualities of the space. We invite you to peruse our collection of books about Tasmania, put on a record, pull out a yoga mat, unpack one of 50+ board games and puzzles, or re-watch your favourite film. And of course, getting cosy by the fire is a must.

Located in the centre of Tasmania, Haven on High is an easy drive to statewide tourist destinations and serves as a fantastic hub for day trips in any direction. We are conveniently located next to the grocery store and within a 5-minute walk of all shops, eateries, parks, and historic landmarks in town.
