Guide to Hobart: What to do in Tassie this Autumn

9 April, 2025

Written by

Isabelle Azzam

We're often asked, when is the best time to stay at The Provider House? The colder months are upon us, and while Tassie is beautiful all year round, we particularly love all it has to offer in the month of May. The crisp Autumn air makes it the perfect time for nature walks, a cozy glass of wine and evenings around the fire. 

Planning a trip to Tassie this May? Here's what's on!

Outdoor fire.
02
Take a stroll on the property.

Places to Visit

Elsewhere Sauna

Experience a mobile wood fired sauna, paired with a local cold water plunge in natural water bodies local to the region of Nipaluna. Post sauna, enjoy a complementary cup of miso soup to replenish electrolytes. 

Ogee wine bar

Take a seat at moody wine bar located in North Hobart. Perfect for those that want to enjoy a cozy glass of wine on a chilli evening.

Bibimbap Recipe From Sáng

Walking into Sáng, you feel like you are part of the family. It's a welcoming and cosy hole in the wall space nestled in the streets of Surry Hills. Oh, and it also does some seriously good Korean food. We were so excited to head into the Sang kitchen for this delicious Bibimbap recipe, even more excited to feast upon it at the end.
