Very private valley nestled between two mountainous sandstone ranges. 3.5 kilometers from Colebrook. The property in total size is 37 hectares half of which is gently undulating grassland slopes. These slopes lead to the banks of the beautiful Iles Creek which runs nearly all year round. The western range across the creek includes numerous caves within comfortable walking distance. The highest cave provides magnificent views to the East coast.
Camping options include non-designated sites either side of the creek under the huge black-wood trees, restricted to 4-wheel drive vehicles during winter and spring months, with a secluded site with year-round access for all vehicles.
At the entrance sits the first of the designated sites, the rest are accessed via the meandering road down 300 or so meters to the camping ground entrance for the other two sites. The last 500-700 meters of Yarlington road leading to the entrance is quite steep. Some two wheel drive vehicles towing large vans have found this challenging, while others haven't.
The two main camping areas now have a 'bush loo' in each site. if you wish to use these please use your own paper. Also, now for camper convenience the whole area has access to the campers' lounge and resource shelter. It contains First Aid and snake bite first aid kits. Water is available here.

Colebrook, TAS · 11 sites · Tents, RVs
Very private valley nestled between two mountainous sandstone ranges. 3.5 kilometers from Colebrook. The property in total size is 37 hectares half of which is gently undulating grassland slopes. These slopes lead to the banks of the beautiful Iles Creek which runs nearly all year round. The western range across the creek includes numerous caves within comfortable walking distance. The highest cave provides magnificent views to the East coast.
Camping options include non-designated sites either side of the creek under the huge black-wood trees, restricted to 4-wheel drive vehicles during winter and spring months, with a secluded site with year-round access for all vehicles.
At the entrance sits the first of the designated sites, the rest are accessed via the meandering road down 300 or so meters to the camping ground entrance for the other two sites. The last 500-700 meters of Yarlington road leading to the entrance is quite steep. Some two wheel drive vehicles towing large vans have found this challenging, while others haven't.
The two main camping areas now have a 'bush loo' in each site. if you wish to use these please use your own paper. Also, now for camper convenience the whole area has access to the campers' lounge and resource shelter. It contains First Aid and snake bite first aid kits. Water is available here. This reconstructed building was once The Campania Scouts and guides, hall.

James's place was fantastic, not only do you get the entire campsite to yourself, you can have a camp fire and you can add on to your booking an hour long sauna and plunge pool session. I'd highly recommend trying it, especially after a day of mountain biking or hiking.
It was just so peaceful at our campsite, we set up beside the Ringarooma River watching the platypus play, we didn't want to leave. It's also a short walk or ride into the charming town of Branxholm. Where you will find the biggest & best lamb pie's I've ever tasted at Tin Timbers Cafe.
James and Graham (son & father) were so friendly and welcoming. They also have cabins onsite if your not into camping. It's a beautiful property that you don't want to miss.

For $30 this place was fine. Bit of a walk to get to the toilet and a few obstacles and hazards so make sure you check the way to the toilet before dark and also have a torch if going in the night. Bring toilet paper as only one roll was supplied and there were 5 groups of campers. Didnt want to call or ring the bell at 6am to wake the host for more, lucky we had our own. There are also a lot of pet geese which are right at the fence so quite noisy.
Overall though, for $30 it was ok for the night.

We tent camped for a night. Location was good with a nice outlook. There are some good flat areas at the bottom of the camping area but the top section looked to be on quite a slope.
Uphill walk to toilet was not too far and toilet was clean. With only one toilet being available it could be a bit of a wait if the camp ground is full. We didn't have a problem with that as we were only sharing with about 4 other groups.

Cherry Top was an absolute delight. The owners were cordial and accommodating. The tenting area was so easy to set up! You know when you can't drive the pegs in for all the gravel? Not the case here. Smooth pegs for daaaaays. Not far from the quaint community of Lilydale, which has a public pool, library (only open some days) and a few cute shops. Wild blackberries abound!
