This large house turned into a bar/venue is on Princess Street past the Hub close to where Alfred Street meets Princess."

"Situated a little further up Princess Street is The Mansion a bar, live music venue and restaurant. From the outside it looks a little like a haunted house, thanks to the dark red-brick facing. This intimidating exterior houses a relaxed bar space as well as a great outdoor patio and sand volleyball court, perfect for the summer months."
