Weekend Trip to Ryelands Farm & Vineyard

What an awesome spot. Derek is a wonderful host, friendly and very informative. Setup has tables, great fire pit and wood supplied. There is access to water straight out of the Derwent River, nothing fresher. Great place to go and explore the Mt Field National Park, Gordon Dam or Salmon Ponds and a must is Plenty Cider right next door (to Salmon Ponds). Close enough for a run into New Norfolk for their Saturday morning street market. Gretna Green Hotel is just up the highway.

Can’t not recommend this place enough !! We had the best stay, the host Derek was so welcoming, thoughtful and helpful. We arrived to a pristine campsite with a fire ready to go. Derek gave us so much info about the area which we loved as first time visitors !!

Weekend Trip to Base Camp Tasmania

Alana & Steve have created the perfect get-away. Away from the crowds, elevated, space, beautiful nature in spades, awesome amenities.. everything you need for a rest. Highly recommended for at least a few days.. if not longer.

Weekend Trip to Ryelands Farm & Vineyard

Absolutely picturesque spot on the river. Derek made us feel so welcomed and even had a surprise for the kids. Looking forward to visiting again in the warmer months to swim in the river.

Derek is a wonderful host and the property is well set up. The fire pit and picnic table is a nice spot and the access to the Derwent River is perfect. Closest he highway yet so quiet. Clean public toilet around the corner at Gretna is handy.

Amazing location, sleeping with the running water of the river is so peaceful. The wine from the vineyard is very nice also.

What a lovely location...way up the hill but so worth the drive! The facilities are well cared for and very environmentally sound! We will definately be back and tell all our friends about it! Thanks again Alana and Steve such a great location!

Weekend Trip to Deep Glen Coastal Campsite

Perfectly placed campground on the Tasman Peninsula, just above Pirates Bay. What we loved most was the two camp sites had plenty of space, and we didn't feel like we were crowded in. Easy access to each site, long drop toilet available, and a lovely area to explore. Cubed (retro coffee van) is a short walk away for a lazy start to Saturday and Sunday mornings. The 'best bang for buck' bushwalk to Waterfall Bluff is an easy 10 minute drive, and thoroughly recommended. We took our own firewood however the hosts can arrange this if you don't have your own supply. We fell asleep each night to the distant roar of waves, with the occasional hoot-hoot of an owl. Other visiting night-life included pademelons and bandicoots. Our hosts provided sound local knowledge, and we will definitely be back again.

Lovely quiet spot along the river. We kayaked 20 minutes down and came across a fur seal. Lots of platypus about. Derek was very friendly.

Ryelands Farm & Vineyard is a great place to camp for a few days. Private and secluded with great river access and views. We were lucky enough to spot a Quill at night , but the highlight was having the resident Platypus swim right up to me in the river. Derek is a friendly easy going host who puts a lot of work into making his guests feel welcome. The picnic table , bbq and firepit with ample wood provided made for an easy and comfortable stay. We didn’t manage to try Derek’s wine this visit but will on our return in the near future. Some phone signal by the rivers edge was useful and an easy 15-20 minute drive to New Norfolk if you need to stock up and find a dump point.

We loved our stay at Eaglehawk Neck, such a relaxing spot snd coffee up the road at the lookout was an added bonus.

Weekend Trip to Ryelands Farm & Vineyard

The site is in a beautiful spot next to the river with plenty of space to relax. Derek was very friendly and helpful and we enjoyed his wine very much. There was a barbecue which could be used but due to wild fire restrictions at the time we didn't.

Weekend Trip to Deep Glen Coastal Campsite

Beautiful peaceful location. Will definitely be back again.

2 nights at Deep Glen Coastal Campsite

Quiet and peaceful spot with a far off view between the trees of the cliffs in the distance, a beautiful beach just down the hill and a drop toilet provided (we had our own bathroom in our camper so didn’t use it). We bought some wood and it was a very generous amount! Stephen was very friendly and had lots of good tips for walks to do nearby (we were there to walk Cape Huay). It was lovely!
