Springfield Deer Farm – Abattoir & Classroom

Project Overview

Falcon Building Group partnered with Springfield Deer Farm to deliver a refurbished abattoir with a commercial grade kitchen and classroom attached. Nestled in Tasmania’s Central Highlands beneath the Great Western Tiers, Springfield Deer Farm spans 130 acres and is home to over 600 free range deer.

The farm is renowned for its ethical, sustainable and traceable approach to venison production. You can read more here: https://www.springfielddeerfarm.com.au/

This new facility strengthens Springfield’s operational efficiency while elevating its capacity to host butchery masterclasses, culinary workshops and farm-to-plate education experiences for visitors, chefs and industry professionals.

Timelines & Expectations

From the initial planning stage, Falcon Building Group worked closely with Springfield Deer Farm to ensure the build aligned with both operational deadlines and seasonal demands. Clear expectations were set around compliance, functionality and presentation – the facility needed to meet strict industry standards while being ready to host Springfield Deer Farms first program of masterclasses and events.

Construction commenced following final design approval and regulatory clearances, with works carefully scheduled to avoid disruption to the farm’s daily operations. The delivery program was staged so that specialized abattoir and kitchen equipment could be installed seamlessly alongside the base build, with all services, drainage and ventilation systems integrated from the outset.

The project was completed on time and to specification, allowing Springfield Deer Farm to confidently open the doors to a space that exceeded expectations for both operational performance and guest experience.

Scope Of Work

Falcon Building Group’s scope included:

  • Refurbishment of an existing abattoir designed for efficiency, compliance and animal welfare considerations
  • A fully fitted commercial kitchen equipped with stainless steel benches, commercial ovens and specialist preparation zones
  • An open, light filled classroom space with handcrafted timber tables and hospitality seating for group learning and dining
  • Covered outdoor area extending the learning environment into the surrounding rural landscape
  • Accessible restroom and support facilities, designed for comfort and usability

Challenges & Key Outcomes

Delivering in a rural location required careful coordination of trades, services and supply chains. The design had to seamlessly meet strict hygiene standards while creating a welcoming, inspiring learning space.

The result is a facility that’s practical and inviting: stainless steel and commercial equipment for high performance workflow, paired with warm timber finishes, natural light, and open space for interaction and learning. The balance reflects Springfield Deer Farm’s ethos and Falcon Building Group’s commitment to blending precision with people focused outcomes

Our Construction Manager and skilled trades worked together to deliver this project efficiently and to the highest standard.

“This was a rewarding build. Blending the technical requirements of an abattoir with the warmth of an educational space. The client’s vision was clear, and working together we achieved a result that will serve them for years to come”

– Falcon Building Group, Construction Manager 

Creating Lasting Value For Regional Tasmanian Businesses

Springfield Deer Farm – Accommodation

Project Overview

Following the successful delivery of the Abattoir and Classroom, Falcon Building Group was engaged by Springfield Deer Farm to transform an existing farm building into premium guest accommodation.

The project was scheduled to ensure the accommodation was ready for Springfield Deer Farm’s upcoming guest program, including peak tourism periods. Expectations were set around delivering a polished, high quality space that would align with Springfield’s premium brand while being durable enough for a frequent rise in a working farm environment.

Falcon Building Group’s team staged works to make the most of the existing structure while introducing new services, insulation and finishes, handing over the completed accommodation on time and to a high standard.

Scope Of Work

Falcon Building Groups work included:

The result is a space that feels welcoming and functional.

From planning and project management to on site construction, The Falcon Building Group team worked seamlessly to ensure fit out was delivered to specification and schedule.

Strahan Village

Project Overview

Falcon Building Group was engaged by NRMA to complete a significant refurbishment of the Strahan Village hotel and restaurant, located on Tasmania’s remote West Coast. The project formed a part of NRMA’s broader commitment to enhancing regional accommodation offerings across the state.

The scope focused on improving guest comfort, restaurant functionality and the overall quality of experience – while maintaining live operations throughout construction.

Timelines & Expectations

Given Strahan Village’s position as a major tourism hub, strict timelines were essential to minimise disruption to both guests and operations. Falcon Building Group coordinated works to ensure key facilities remained operational, delivering the project efficiently and in alignment with NRMA’s seasonal requirements. The entire project was completed during the ‘off season’ of July to September 2023.

Scope of Work

The client required a high-quality refurbishment that would elevate both the guest rooms and shared spaces, while retaining the venue’s character and connection to the Strahan waterfront.

The scope of works included:

  • Full demolition and refurbishment of 35 ensuite hotel rooms
  • Restaurant upgrades including flooring, seating zones and acoustic finishes
  • Refresh of public spaces and circulation areas
  • Scheduling around live guests and operating hours
  • Coordination of multiple trades in a regional location

Challenges & Key Outcomes

Given the hotel remained operational, Falcon implemented a staged construction program designed to minimise disruption to staff and guests. The project demanded precise planning, remote logistics coordination, and consistent communication with the NRMA team.

“Despite the complex task of orchestrating numerous trades in a remote location, the project was executed safely, punctually, and to exacting standards.”

– Darren, NRMA Resorts

Who Was Involved in the Project

This project was managed by James Trimmer, supported by a skilled team of trades and suppliers, many of whom have extensive experience working in remote regional areas. The team worked closely with NRMA to stage works effectively and deliver the project to the highest standard.

Sharing their thoughts on the project, James noted:

“I had the opportunity to lead the full renovation of a 35-room accommodation facility at Strahan Village on Tasmania’s rugged west coast. This was a fast-paced and highly rewarding project, carried out under a tight schedule to ensure the client could return the property to full operation and revenue generation as quickly as possible. One of the key challenges was the remote location, which required careful logistical planning to ensure materials and trades were on-site at the right times. Coordinating multiple subcontractors working in a wave effect through the building meant detailed scheduling and real-time problem-solving were essential to keeping things moving smoothly.

Through strong communication, precise planning, and close collaboration with the client and all on-site teams, we delivered the project on time and on budget. The client was extremely pleased with the outcome, both in terms of the finished product and how the project was run.

This project is a great example of Falcon Building’s ability to deliver high-quality work in remote locations under tight timelines, without compromising on standards or client satisfaction.”

Lot 40

Project Overview

Falcon Building Group were engaged to redevelop the former Derby Tin Mine Museum into Lot 40, A multifunctional hospitality venue positioned to serve both locals and the growing tourism market in northeast Tasmania.

With Derby emerging as a key destination for mountain biking, the client required a fit-for-purpose space that could accommodate a bar, cafe, microbrewery, dining zones, and outdoor service areas – all while preserving the integrity of the existing structure.

Timelines & Expectations

Commencing in 2022, the project was delivered over a tight construction timeline to ensure minimal downtime for the business, which operates in Derby’s busy tourism cycle. Falcon worked closely with the client to stage works effectively, meeting both the operational requirements and project deadlines without compromise on quality.

Scope of Work

The client’s vision was to modernise the cafe and restaurant space, creating a more functional layout, updated finishes and enhanced comfort for customers. This project involved a complete internal reconfiguration and external works to support new operations requirements.

The scope of work included:

  • Deck extension with integrated balustrade
  • Upgraded amenities, seating areas, and acoustic treatment
  • Installation of barn doors

Challenges & Outcomes

Falcon Building Group delivered the project across multiple stages, working flexibly around evolving requirements and a live design process. Strong collaboration with the client ensured the build remained on track, with clear communication and adaptive delivery across all phases.

“We appreciated working with Falcon Building Group across multiple stages of our redevelopment project. Their flexibility and collaborative approach was invaluable as we worked through the complexities of bringing a disused building back to life”

-Tim, Lot 40 

This project was managed by James Trimmer, who oversaw all stages of delivery. His close collaboration with the client and hands-on management of suppliers and trades ensured the project ran smoothly, despite the logistical challenges of working in a remote regional location.

Reflecting on the project, James said:

“As Construction Manager for Falcon Building, I led the full transformation of the old Tin Centre and museum in Derby into what is now Lot 40, a vibrant bar, brewery, and gin distillery. 

This project was especially rewarding, blending heritage preservation with a modern hospitality fit-out in one of Tasmania’s most iconic tourist towns. Working with an older structure presented some unique challenges, particularly when it came to integrating new services and structural elements into an existing building.

The design included a large new deck area and extensive internal reworking to accommodate the brewery and distillery equipment, all of which required careful coordination, detailed planning, and agile problem-solving throughout the build.

Timing was critical. With Derby being a globally recognised mountain biking destination, it was essential to complete the project before the peak tourism season. We worked closely with the client and subcontractors to accelerate the schedule where needed and ensure Lot 40 could open its doors in time for the busy period.

The result is a completely revitalised space that not only enhances the local offering but has quickly become a standout feature in the town. The client was thrilled with the outcome.”

Project Impact

Lot 40 is now a fully operational venue that contributes to the ongoing revitalisation of Derby’s town centre. It’s an example of Falcon Building Groups expertise in regional delivery, adaptive reuse, and commercial hospitality fit-outs, combining practical outcomes with a high level of finish.

Timelines & Expectations

Operating in a remote location with a working hospitality venue meant careful planning was essential. Falcon Building Group staged works to minimise disruption to daily operations and delivered the project within the agreed timeframe, meeting the client’s operational and seasonal requirements.

Scope of Work

Like other regional projects we’ve delivered, this job came with a unique set of logistical and technical challenges that required thorough planning and hands-on management from start to finish.

The project involved extensive upgrades to the building, including the installation of a large commercial kitchen complete with a full refrigeration system. Working within an existing, older structure meant adapting modern services—such as mechanical ducting—into the original roof space, which demanded a high level of problem-solving and coordination with our design and services teams.

Given the hotel’s remote location, careful scheduling of trades and materials was essential to keeping the project on track. Despite these challenges, we successfully delivered the renovation to a high standard, on time and on budget.
