Silver Sands ‘eyesore’ set to make way for luxury accommodation, if Jan Cameron succeeds in Bicheno
A derelict hotel that has blighted a prime location at one of Tasmania’s prettiest east-coast towns is set to be knocked down and replaced with an eco-development that includes accommodation for penguins.
Key points:
- The rundown hotel on Tasmania’s east coast was bought by Tasmanian millionaire Jan Cameron in 2004.
- It fell into disrepair after closing its doors in 2015, much to the frustration of locals
- The new eco-development will feature 12 two-storey units and accommodation for penguins
The Silver Sands hotel at Bicheno was bought by enigmatic Tasmanian millionaire and Kathmandu founder Jan Cameron in 2002 and to the frustration of locals, has crumbled slowly after closing its doors in 2015.
