This property features all the elements required for a camping adventure. Located on Bruny Island on an open paddock in a bush setting, you will have 60 acres to explore or relax in complete privacy. Arrive here using Sealink Bruny Island ferry. and take the Blinkbonny Rd Turn off traveling for approx 500m from the corner. The campsite is best suited to self-contained 4WD campers who must bring their own toilet/shower facilities, drinking water and supplies. Pets on leashes are welcome. Campfires are permitted in the dedicated firepit. Take a stroll down to the beach and have a swim in the turquoise coloured water at Little Taylor Bay, or explore the bush and look for spotted par-ado, swift parrot, sea and nesting pair of wedge tail eagles, hawks, plovers, honey eaters, wrens, herons, brone wing pigeons just to name some of the birds. We also have a few of the famous white kangaroos, plus lots of smaller wallabies. There are good trails for hikes and mountain biking at the Mount Midway Forest Reserve and Mount Bruny Forest Reserve. Don't miss out on the Cape Bruny Lighthouse Tour - built in 1836, it's the only heritage listed lighthouse open for tours.

Quiet, private bush camp to base from whilst exploring the island! The site was clear, flat and a beautiful fireplace with wood was available. At night we watched the wallabies and tasmanian chickens come out. Beautiful spot!

Peaceful, private and quiet - Rare
Awesome camp spot. Peaceful, private and quiet which is rare to find on Bruny. Roger was incredibly generous with firewood and the site was level, well maintained and absolutely beautiful. The native Birdlife is stunning and will definitely be back.
