Valley's Nest is your very own rustic cabin in the Fingal Valley, nestled under Bare Rock and overlooking Ben Lomond.
The property has a house, shack, 2x A-Frame cabins, gardens and a dam. You access Valley's Nest via a separate driveway and is your very own private retreat that perches above it all.
Come and experience the beautiful sunrises and sunsets, wildlife and tranquility.

If it's rest and relaxation you're needing, we have you covered with stunning views from the cabin and fire-bath, reading materials and paints.
The cabin itself has a cosy wood stove heater, and is furnished with a double bed with pillows and a queen-sized doona. There is an undercover outdoor small kitchen with a 2 burner gas stovetop, basic kitchenware (with hand-held coffee grinder and aeropress), sink, solar lighting and rechargeable camping lanterns.
The toilet is a private eco-throne with a view to Bare Rock. It is composting and only a short walk from the cabin.
We provide you with wood for the indoor wood stove, an esky, bed linen, towels, tea-towels, basic kitchenware, cooking basics and toilet paper.
The kitchen sink and bath water comes from a spring fed dam, perfect for washing your dishes and bathing in. Please bring your own fresh drinking water.
Please note this is rustic accommodation, the cabin doesn’t have 240v, only a solar powered charging port with USB-A/C inputs to recharge the camping lanterns and your devices. You may wish to bring head torches for night time reading and card games!
There is no wifi available but there is strong mobile phone service.
Fingal is fondly known by the locals as "the Valley", and hosts several coffee and food vans for travellers passing through.

Cuckoo, TAS · 5 sites · Tents, RVs
Located just 9 km from Scottsdale, Pandora Valley offers a secluded and sheltered camping area in a paddock with not a house in sight. The property is nestled within the scenic Cuckoo Valley, covering 90 acres and currently operating as a beef farm.
The Mackenzie Rivulet winds through 20 acres of native rainforest in the centre of the property, providing hours of exploration for campers. The rivulet is shallow, with clear, slow-moving water, making it a perfect spot to cool off on a warm summer’s day or a beautiful place to sit back and read a book.
The property has only recently been purchased by its current owners and is a work in progress, so for now there are limited facilities onsite.
Campsites are pet friendly.
Fire pits are allowed in all sites.

We decided to camp for the night of NUTOPIA - held on the 1st April each year, on their farmstay, which, was amazing 👏 music, hospitality, laughter and friendly people and delicious curry and hazelnuts! We'll be back for sure. The camp spot is located on a gorgeous piece of land.

A beautiful, peaceful spot. Kath and Alex were super welcoming and really easygoing. They even encouraged us to wander through their apple orchard and pick what we liked, which was such a nice touch.
We loved the walk across the property to the beach and another one out the back where there was another lovely view. The whole place felt really private and relaxing.
We’d definitely stay again - highly recommend!

We loved camping at Ladel Chapel camp grounds. The property was just as described. Lovely green flat areas to choose from and plenty of room so we weren't on top of anyone else. In fact, the closest van was 40 metres away. Very easy to find and close to beaches and the Adventure Bay town. Nigel was great to deal with. We are looking forward to staying here again in the future.

Where to go
North-East Tasmania
Start your East Coast road trip in the north, where spectacular views and wildlife sightings await at the Bay of Fires—there are even free camping spots to be found. To the north, the striking coastline of Mount William National Park is ablaze with wildflowers through spring and summer, and it’s the ideal time for snorkelling and scuba diving. Further south, St Helens and the Surf Coast is the place to surf, hike, and fish along the coast.
Freycinet
Three of the East Coast’s national parks are found along the southern stretch of coast, starting with the hugely popular Freycinet National Park. Hiking, sea kayaking, and snorkelling are fun ways to explore Wineglass Bay and the surrounding coastline, and the beach camping is second to none. Nearby, there’s forest hiking and camping at Douglas Apsley National Park and car-free camping near the painted cliffs of Maria Island National Park.
Tasman Peninsula
Dangling off Tasmania’s southeast corner, the Tasman Peninsula is dominated by towering sea cliffs. Explore the coastal hikes, hidden sea caves, and windswept beaches of the Tasman National Park, uncover Tasmania’s convict history at the Port Arthur Historic Site, or tackle some of the island’s most epic surf. You’ll find great camping in and around the national park or, for a more local experience, the peninsula is also peppered with Hipcamps.
