Government House Hobart

The tennis courts at Government House in Hobart, Tasmania, were built with their Pavilion in the late 1880s at the instigation of Governor Sir Robert Hamilton and Lady Hamilton. Of the three heritage courts, 2 grass courts and one en-tout-cas court are maintained by a professional greenkeeper.

Governors, their families and visitors have used the courts over the years. To keep the grass at a high standard, only one grass court is available for hire at a time.
