The Bears
Welcomes You

BEARS WENT OVER THE MOUNTAIN is a Boutique Accommodation in the heart of Geeveston.

We offer private rooms (Queen-Beds & Family-Rooms) with en-suites.

​

This historic stone property is conveniently located on Geeveston’s main street and is the perfect base to explore scenic southern Tasmania and the Huon Trail.

​

Our central location in the Tasmanian South is an ideal location to stay with access to:

Geeveston Platypus Walk,

Geeveston Visitor Centre (Forest & Heritage Centre),

the Tahune Airwalk,

Hartz Mountain, 

Hastings Caves and Thermal Springs, and

Cockle Creek!

​

Walking distance from town facilities makes us easy for hiking and cyclists on the Tasman Trail!

​

There’s a reason The Bears is in a prime position in Geeveston; this historic building was the town’s first (and for a long time only) bank. Built-in the early 20th century under the ownership of the Commercial Bank of Australia, the property continued its life as a bank right up until 10 September 1993. It was converted to a bed-and-breakfast in 2003, and current owners took possession of the property in late 2016, undertaking renovations and a ‘New Look’ of the guest rooms and Tapas & Wine Bar to improve amenities, customer comfort, service and facilities.
