The Tasmanian tourism icon Pub in the Paddock - with Pinky the pig - is still on the market for $799,000.

Property Observer reported on the Pyengana listing in August last year.

Located on St Columba Falls Road and formerly known as the St Columba Hotel, Pub in the Paddock is infamously known for its beer-drinking pigs.

Located on 2.8 hectares, the hotel was built in 1880 and features six country-style guest rooms, a restaurant and commercial kitchen.

The main bar features an open fireplace and also included is a liquor and beverage store and an office.

The pig-beer-guzzling-pub was originally listed in 2008 for over $1.1 million, but failed to sell.

“This property is perfect for the owner operator, offering a lifestyle that most can only dream of,” says listing agent Nereda Ball of LJ Hooker St Helens.

Ball told Property Observer this week that there has been a lot of interest in the listing, but no buyers as of yet.

The current vendor has owned the pub for nine years.
