72km from New Norfolk · 1 site · Lodging · Spring Beach, TAS

Female only! Stay in a bohemian traditional Mongolian Ger (yurt) on a 70 acre property. Situated on a hill two minutes drive to spectacular beaches and walking tracks. Private yet safely contained within the property. Ideal for single travelling female if any age who wishes to explore this beautiful area. Visit the stunning Maria Island, I am 20 minutes away to the Triabunna ferry. Visit Freycinet and the Tasman Peninsula. Hobart is 75 minutes away, airport 50 minutes. East Coast Tasmania..nowhere better! Enjoy lots of activities in the area and come back to your serene surroundings. The COTU Yurt is basic and rustic glamping. It's cosy, has minimal facilities but you can boil a kettle and microwave a meal or cook outside on a camping stove (home cooked meals $20 booked in advance) Main bathroom facilities in my house twice daily at a time arranged but there's a caravan type loo in the yurt. There's an armchair, a cosy wood stove, and a single bed. Microwave, tea and coffee. Filtered rainwater. Bedding provided. I'm a respectable distance away but your privacy is as important to you as it is to me. Park on-site and you have a private entrance. There are two silly labradors who may visit you outside so you do need to be a dog person. If not.. sorry the yurt is not for you. Please note this is a female only property.

Located in Southport, 15 minutes south of Dover, this is a great place to base yourself and explore the local region and all it has to offer. We are located within walking distance to the beach (250m), and the wharf (500m, and a great spot for fishing), and a short drive to Southport Tavern with take away shop 1.3kms (great meals). There are also plenty of good bush walks in the area - Adamsons Falls, South Cape Track, Duckhole Lake and Hastings Caves. The thermal pools are also close by! Camping here is for self-contained campers only, for those that have their own toilet. All waste is to be taken when you leave. We offer five-level grass sites with easy access. Four have power and water hook-ups and one site with it close by. There is an enclosed campers kitchen, with hot water, gas BBQ, and a wood heater. Contact the Host should you require further details.

1 night at Ladychapel Camp Grounds

We stayed at this camp and would recommend it highly. We towed our 18ft caravan to the top of the hill. The ground was firm and we had a lovely sea view. Nigel gave us some of his local knowledge and our 3 nights spent at this camp were very quiet.

The location was ideal just by the Craigbourne dam and the views were breathtaking. There is plenty of space and flat ground to camp or get the camper van parked. Really nice place to relax and have a fireplace going just as we did. Great hosts as well. Would definitely be back 👍🏻

Weekend Trip to Quoll Hideaway - Bruny Island Bush & Beach camping

Very peaceful and private space, lots of wildlife and a wonderful beach walk across the road from the camp. Fantastic for well behaved dogs. Camp Kitchen was spacious and well protected from wind and rain. Linda went above and beyond in hosting us and great communication. The firewood provided was dry and plentiful.

We enjoyed another perfect little getaway on Karyn's property. The peaceful atmosphere is perfect to relax and unwind from the daily grind. We were lucky enough to be visited by the resident sea eagles and also had a friendly turkey pop in for a visit.

The perfect place to camp for a few days. The site is huge, flat and runs along the side of the river. It’s beautiful country. Derek is a fantastic host and also respectful of your privacy whilst you’re camping there. The horses he has at his property became great friends to our kids! Great place. Cheers Derek.

This is our second time camping at Derek's farm and his gem is now our favourite spot in Tassie. Derek is one of the nicest hosts ever. He has so much knowledge of the area. He brough some carrots and apples for the kids to feed the friendly horses. We had had a wonderful time and have already booked for the new year. Thank you Derek for sharing your beautiful property. You need to be fully self contained.

Great open space on the waters edge. The dam is interesting to walk along. No tree shade but thats ok in Tassie Spring. Lots of birds to watch. The dogs had a great time too. Great to have campfires- plenty of wood. There is a public toilet about 1km away just FYI.

Great spot for a weekend away! Even though it was windy and cloudy we very much enjoyed it. Fabulous views of the hills beyond the dam, especially watching all the different birds and farm animals. Waking up to the view was amazing because we were right on the water’s edge ☺️ Milly the dog was absolutely gorgeous too.

Great campsite in southern Bruny! The weather was terrible but we felt a bit protected at this grassy lovely campsite. Nice to wander down the hill to the water for a walk too. Fire pit and wood that was provided was much appreciated! Thanks so much, will definitely be back again 👍
