28km from Bridgewater · 1 site
Located just a 20 minute drive from the Hobart CBD, this beautiful 0.67 hectare coastal bush property is set in a little valley right by Kingston Beach, Browns River and Tyndall Beach. It's just a short 5 minute stroll down the road to the beach, or up the road to the start of the Alum Cliffs Track.
Activities you can enjoy here include birdwatching, bushwalking, swimming, kayaking, fishing, sailing, bike riding, dog walking.
You'll be staying in a fairly new comfortable bedroom with ensuite bathroom tucked under my house. There's a double bed made up with fresh linen. You'll enjoy hot showers, a flushing toilet and almost complete privacy. There's mains water. With prior notice, you could use the washing machine inside the house and hang your clothes on the clothes line strung between trees.
Parking for two cars and/or caravan/campervan is easy. A circular driveway surrounds the house with a driveway extension.
I hope to build an outside kitchen at the nearby shed, but for now campers need to be self-contained for their cooking and washing up, or else take the short walk to Kingston Beach and the excellent cafes and restaurants there. Food scraps need to go in a compost bin on site.
Visitors are welcome to enjoy a fire when conditions allow it. Longer pieces of firewood are provided free of charge and kindling can easily be collected from around. (I'd rather you didn't use the shorter pieces of cut firewood as they are for my wood heater). You could enjoy a wood fired bush bath for a small charge, conditions allowing, with advance notice. Early evening is the best time to enjoy a bush bath and star gazing with set up in the afternoon.
Wildlife is abundant and includes birds, wallabies, possums, echidnas and bandicoots.
You are welcome to bring your small dog, but please ensure it's under control at all times. Wildlife are at risk if your dog is a hunter and roams free. Tyndall Beach (the Kingston dog beach) down the road is where your furry friends can have a run. Walk them to the beach on a lead and let them off there. I have an older Jack Russell who is afraid of big dogs, sorry.
I think this is the perfect place to experience a little bush luxury before beginning or ending your Tassie adventures.
I look forward to meeting you!

Few places are as ruggedly beautiful and steeped in history as the Tasman Peninsula, and NRMA Port Arthur Holiday Park is at its heart. Located in the very spot where convicts once tended to vegetable gardens, the park’s waterfront, bushland location is special in more ways than one.
There’s plenty to entertain the kids right here in the park, but our unique surroundings conceal treasures you’ll delight in finding. Hear the whispers of yesterday at World Heritage-listed colonial sites. Hike through coastal wilderness to the tallest sea cliffs in the country, pounded by the Southern Ocean far below. View those same sea stacks from a speed boat, salt spray glistening on your awe-struck face.
Our welcoming hosts are on-site to help make your Tasman Peninsula trip unforgettable.

A lovely property and exceptional hosts. Ease of parking and the amenities including a lovely bumpy with hot running water, fridge and outside shower to wash the beach sand off, was high on our tick list. The area is amazing and lots to see and do. The bird life and nearby beaches offer endless things to see and do.
We would highly recommend Lyn and Allan’s property as a go to place for caravaners.

The host welcomed us very kindly. The facilities are so nice. You could take a shower with warm water and provided a clean bathroom. It is the best campsite! It was great to take a walk because you could see wild animals such as wallabies and rabbits, and it was a nice place to go because it was in the quiet and scenic mountains. I took many pictures of my life.

Great location with respect to being at the entrance to Mt Field NP. I was up early, so wandered into Russell Falls with a cup of tea, and didn’t see a soul!
Definitely on the expensive side, but taking location into account, fair enough.
Bathroom ammenities very spacious, and considering how busy the campsite was over the long weekend, they did a good job keeping them clean.
As a tent camper, it was great having the ‘laundry’ set up for washing up, meaning I didn’t have to book water.
Food van looked good value, but didn’t get a chance to try it out.
