Pendragon Hall provides unique and historic accommodation within a converted church in Hobart. Built in 1852, it was formerly known as St John the Baptist Church. With its stylish accommodation, amazing architecture and extensive history, Pendragon Hall effortlessly combines modern luxury with old world charm.
Pendragon Hall features an open plan spacious living room with a cosy fireplace, fully equipped kitchen, modern entertainment system ( amazing acoustics ), musical instrument lounge and various sleeping areas in the open plan main hall, which sleeps up to six guests as an exclusive booking. The church features enormous stained glass windows and 80ft high ceilings and also two beautiful garden courtyards.
Slicing like an arrowhead where Forest Road splits left from Goulburn Street in West Hobart, Pendragon Hall is outwardly a church, with mind-blowing leaded windows, a steeple and tall lancet-shaped heavy wooden doors.
Inside, the 155-year-old former church has been adapted for private living, though still retaining charming ecclesiastical detail. Today, standing in the nave of the former St John the Baptist with its soaring ceiling and colonnade of interior arches you have a feeling of space, light and air. It’s not at all overpowering, despite the spaciousness and traces of ecclesiastical grandeur. The master bed, at one end of the nave, is lit by a four-panel stained glass of historic importance, under which is the ’Reredos’, which was gifted by Richard Patterson to the congregation in 1873; its inspiration was a drawing of the Mosaic picture of the Last Supper that formed part of the Reredos in Westminster Abbey. It has been the scene of elegant candelit dinners, of relaxing days while the warm spring sunshine streams in confetti-like colours through the stained glass windows, and as a peaceful spot for visitors (usually a couple) to come back to, after exploring what southern Tasmania has to offer, in one of its latter-day guises as accommodation for tourists. Although there’s no doubt that this beautiful and peaceful piece of history has ’good energy’,it could be said that Pendragon Hall has three outstanding attributes: architecture, ambience and acoustics — the latter having been put to the test by members of the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra who have been known to have memorable jamming sessions there.
