So many of us hold fond memories of the remarkable functions held by The Happy Chef over the years at this beautiful setting that is Jessen Lodge.

Originally built as the Longford Hotel, the property itself is steeped in history and has been one of Longford’s main iconic buildings ever since it sprung to life in 1827. She’s had many leases of life and has spent time as a bank, library and even a doctor’s surgery throughout various stages of her history.

Since 2006, the Happy Chef has held an average of 38 weddings per year and established itself as a widely renowned wedding and function venue. But after all of these years of creating life long memories for so many it’s finally time for Happy to hang up his hat.

We are offering everything you see including the actual business and a very long inventory of equipment, right down to knives and forks. There’s good news if you do decide to continue with the business side of things as James The happy Chef would love to assist during the transitional period.

There’s loads of storage, a brand new state of the art security system, living quarters including a bathroom, a fully equipped commercial kitchen with new oven and heat lamps, 2 cool rooms (one of which with a new motor), and beautiful park-like grounds with 80 year old roses and one of the oldest English gardens in Tasmania.

The mind boggles at the endless opportunities and what the next chapter may entail.
