THE MISTRES’S INVITATION: AN OVERNIGHT MYSTERY RETREAT
$250 per person
THE SAPPHIRE SECRET : A GHOSTLY MURDER MYSTERY
$125 per person (8 - 10 People)
The Mistress of the house is waiting and she has a story to tell.
The year is 1860. The air inside Prospect Country House is thick with the scent of beeswax, old secrets, and the faint, lingering perfume of a woman who shouldn't be there. While the sun sets over the Tasmanian horizon, the flickering candlelight reveals a truth the stone walls have kept hidden for decades: The Mistress of the House has never truly left.
Gather your most trusted confidants for an evening of high-stakes deception, Victorian glamour, and a haunting that defies the grave.
This is more than a meal; it is a three-course dinner experience set with intrigue. As each dish is placed before you, the plot thickens. Between the clink of silver and the pouring of wine, clues are dropped, secrets are traded, and alliances are tested.
$125 per person (Minimum 8 People)
THE HERITAGE PASTA MASTERCLASS LUNCH
$150 per person (Approximately 2.5Hours)
Hand rolled traditions in the heart of the 1830’s
Forget the modern kitchen; this is a culinary portal to 1830. Between walls hand-hewn by convict labor, you aren’t just kneading dough—you’re touching history. As you work the flour on timber benches worn smooth by two centuries, the glow of the original hearth serves as a reminder that at Prospect, every recipe is seasoned by time. The journey culminates in an intimate, long lunch, where the pasta you’ve crafted becomes the centerpiece of a table set with heritage charm and fine Tasmanian wine.
The Mistress Invitation Package
Includes Murder Mystery Event, 3-Course Dinner, Overnight Stay, and Full Breakfast.
"The mystery begins at dusk, but the memories are made at dawn. Secure the entire villa for your inner circle and live the legend of Prospect Country House.”
(Based on a Group booking of 8 to 10 guests)
"The secrets of the 1860s are best told on a dark winter’s night. Gather your inner circle, stoke the fire, and see if you can survive the mystery of the Sapphire Secret."
”Outstanding. The menu has been cleverly created, seasonal local produce the hero. Each dish we tried was perfectly cooked and delicious. The service team excellent, friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Our new favourite local.”
