Wellington Lodge

History
Wellington Lodge was built in 1886 by the Reverend John Simmons. From 1904 to 1910 it was owned by the Premier of Tasmania, the Right Honourable Sir John Evans. The house then went through various stages from private home to boarding house until 1976 when it was purchased by the Government and became an Aboriginal hostel. In 1990 it became a guest house and has now been tastefully restored decorated and furnished to its original Victorian glory.
