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
