🌿 Limestone Valley – Farmstay Camping on the Edge of Mole Creek Welcome to Limestone Valley, a peaceful farmstay right on the border of Mole Creek township — where the country meets convenience. Set on our working Red Wagyu cattle farm, the campsites overlook open paddocks, rolling limestone hills, and a clear country creek where platypus can often be spotted at dawn or dusk. It’s a true slice of rural Tasmania, yet just minutes from everything you need. The township of Mole Creek — with a pub, restaurant, supermarket, takeaway, and fuel station — is within easy reach, and public toilets are available there for campers’ use. We welcome groups and multiple van bookings, and our sites are large enough to accommodate a few vans comfortably. Local attractions include the Mole Creek Caves, Trowunna Wildlife Sanctuary, Alum Cliffs, Westmorland Falls, and even Walls of Jerusalem National Park for those keen to explore further. Come and unwind among the pastures, watch the sunset over the mountains, and enjoy Tasmania’s clear, starry skies. Limestone Valley — relaxed farm camping with a touch of country charm.

27km from Burnie · 1 site · Tent, RV · Gunns Plains, TAS

Rivers Edge is 24 acres of forest on the banks of the Leven River in Gunns Plains, Tasmania. We are in our own little valley surrounded by tall forests. Preston Creek flows all year through our property and meets the large Leven River where your campsite is situated. Perfect for trout fishing, platypus watching, bird watching or catching the sun setting through the trees on the river bend. There are even the endangered black fresh water crayfish. The site is large enough for up to 5-6 caravans for large bookings, and we only take one booking at a time, so its exclusively yours. We are only 20km to the nearest town, Ulverstone which as everything you need. The road is close by the campsite with easy access to find the property. No toilet facilities at the site. Sat TV is good and limited mobile reception. Telstra works best we've found. River access over a rocky, uneven embankment as it's a natural, untouched environment, just how we and the native animals like it. Campfires ONLY PERMITTED when fire restrictions aren't in place. You absolutely must make sure your campfire is fully extinguished before you leave. Please check "My Trips" (in your profile) for directions once confirmed. Look for the 'Rivers Edge' sign on the entrance gate, then you know youve got the right site and not the neigbours property (which is along side mine on the river) Well behaved dogs are welcome but must be kept with you at all times, no roaming dogs as the road is close by. We love the peace and serenity here so please no unruly behaviour or parties.

4. Peace in the Valley

54km from Burnie · 1 site · Tent, RV · Sheffield, TAS

Escape to a bush retreat within this unique lifestyle property. Situated on almost 27 acres of bush, trees and wildlife. The Gates of Heaven’s boundary goes down and runs along the dasher river. Beulah is a small township on the north-west coast of Tasmania south of Devonport, Tasmania, under the foothills of Mount Roland, Tasmania. The closest town of consequence is Sheffield, Tasmania. The hamlet of Lower Beulah lies, perversely, higher up the foothills of Mount Roland, to the south of the main township.

Weekend Trip to Rivers Edge

Andrew, who greeted us on arrival with some of his girls eggs and a load of firewood that lasted our three days and then some if needed, has a delightful spot for enjoying exactly what Tasmania has to offer. The river and yes platypus were spotted, birds, fish and beautiful smells that make relaxation and admiring nature possible. Whilst the weather wasn’t in our favour we still thoroughly enjoyed it and went for bush walks around his property. Close by is wings wildlife park or a little further caves and waterfalls. Loved our stay and thank you for sharing your beautiful spot.

Powered camp-site. Picnic bench to the left, with a fire pit. Perfect for relaxing

Adam was a wonderful host. Clear directions & we were very happy with our site. Only 2 sites & we were lucky to have this beautiful area to ourselves. Dogs loved the access to the water, mingling with the calves & the grassed area to run around. We made this our base & found the locals friendly while supporting the town (only mins away). Would definitely recommend for any size. Great level areas with enough space & a bonus, is the views. Thanks again for sharing your beautiful farm with us!

I was greeted on arrival and shown the appropriate camping spots. Caretaker was super nice and friendly. The campsite has all the right amenities- fridge, toaster, kettle and microwave so it’s easy to organise your food. Also a pizza oven and barbecue. Owner came over with muffins on my first morning which was super nice. Chicken seemed to undo my tent pegs while I was away during the day. Overall great stay with lovely views.

We loved this campsite! Can be as close or far away from the water as you like. No issues with buzzies as the grass is well maintained. Even purchased fresh eggs & wood for our arrival. Have already rebooked. Thanks Andrew.

This is a fantastic campsite only 35 minute drive from cradle mountain visitors centre! The lady manning the site was wonderful, set us up with everything we needed and showed us the best place to pitch our tent! The hot shower was beautiful after a long day walking, and the small camp kitchen area was a nice place to take refuge from the cold of our tent! It had a couple plug sockets so you could change your phones or portable charger, a microwave, toaster, kettle, fridge and a table and chairs. There was an undercover outdoor bit too with a bench, bbq and pizza oven . The resident chicken Mrs.Chook was very sweet and friendly, she’s a vocal girl but loves pecking at your shoes bless her! Would highly recommend staying here!

Cethea was a great place to camp nr Cradle mountain. I booked on the day and was really impressed by the kitchen facilities, power outlets and hot showers. It was winter and cold and I was really touched at being offered a hot water bottle and felt very looked after. 100% recommend.
