4-Day Bay of Fires Experience

Located in the picturesque North East Tasmania, a short walk from the world-famous Blue Derby Mountain Bike trails and Floating Sauna Lake Derby. Pilgrim Blue occupies an 1800s Church hall. Pilgrim Blue is a historic church hall that has been sensitively renovated into two charming, fully self-contained apartments. Each apartment has a luxurious queen bed, a modern bathroom and kitchenette and is designed to offer convenience while honouring the history and character of this 100 year old building. The new and stylish bathroom has a generous open shower and bespoke wood vanity. A small kitchen contains all modern cooking amenities as well as fridge and freezer. You can start your day with a cup of freshly ground plunger coffee or choose from our range of Australian naturopathic Mayde Teas. A secure bike shed is located onsite. Pilgrim Blue is located in the heart of Derby, a short two-min walk to the main street where bike hire, cafes, gourmet pizza and beer can be found. An easy walking distance to both the Derby Sauna and the world-famous Blue Derby mountain bike trail network, Pilgrim Blue is available for short (one night) or longer stays. It also provides a boutique stop-over for those on driving holidays. For those following the Northern Forage trail, Pilgrim Blue provides a relaxing stop between cellar doors, farm gates, distilleries and tastings.
