Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
Best in Tasmania: Finalist
Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.
Stephen & Janelle is a Star Host
Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.
Please note: a section of the property is fenced off at the moment in preparation for a wedding in January. This reduces the area of the campsite a little and makes entry tighter for big rigs so anything over about 10m will find it tricky. Please consider this before booking. The good news is that till after the wedding, we’re only opening one campsite so you can be guaranteed to have the whole place to yourselves! For the rest of the description, please see below Deep Glen is a beautiful, quiet 5 acre property at Eaglehawk Neck, gateway to the stunning Tasman Peninsula. Hiking, surfing, fishing, swimming, diving are all at your doorstep, not to mention the famous Three Capes Track and the Port Arthur Historic site just a short drive away. If you want to see the coast shown in these photos, both the Tasman Island Cruise and Wild Ocean Tasmania offer excellent trips Bookings are for two adults; children under 16 are free. It may be possible for larger groups to occupy one site - please enquire before booking. As the site is teeming with wildlife including the barred bandicoot, we don't allow dogs. There are no facilities on the block apart from a long drop dunny (byo paper) and a small supply of non-potable water so you will need to be self-sufficient though there are good meals at the nearby Lufra Hotel and excellent coffee just up the road at the legendary Cubed Coffee van. We only make provision for two campsites so you'll never be crowded. Other info: - Hobart 1 hour - Airport 45 mins - nearest shop Murdunna 10 mins Check-in: after 2pm Check-out: by 10am

RV/tent site · Sleeps 5 · Vehicles under 12 m
Deep Glen is a sheltered site with ocean and coastal views. It's teeming with birdlife and nocturnal fauna. Nearby is the superb Pirates Bay with great swimming, surfing, diving, and fishing. There are many excellent walks in the area, ranging from very short and easy to long and strenuous.  Site 1 (The Thumbs) is fairly flat and more suited to larger vehicles.  Site 2 (The Lanterns) is more sheltered but less level though still with great spots for your tent or vehicle. The only facility is a long drop dunny but it sure has a nice view! Each booking allows for two adults (plus children).  More can be accommodated - please contact us for larger groups

Perfectly positioned campground!
12 m travel trailer ·
The Lanterns
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.

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!

Nice spot, but the view was more obstructed by the tree line than expected. The lack of a fire starter in the wood kit was a bit underwhelming. Clearer signposting of the two sites would make arrival easier.

I arrive around 4 pm .been driving non stop since 6 am ..and it was an was accident on the road ,.and was disappointed as the picture on the booking does not reflect at all the site , no sea view, ( the picture on the site is off a drone !!! ) very deceptive ..and the site where I could see a glimpse through the tree of sea , the man said I could not park there ....the place he indicate for my car was too sleep confortably in my car ( camping equipped)..I left stay away and try to find an other place and to recharge my phone ...anyway , I email the person I will not be staying at thier property..they did not reply . ..I find a better and cheaper place !!! As I ask a person in the street as I was lost without my phone google map .. Wow , full kitchen , , with electricity , hot showers and proper toilet , just 2 doors up , very friendly place " the diving center " so friendly with Alpacas and chickens .... for only 15 dollars a night ...very disappointed by hipcamp , not worst the money when ravelling alone and pictures and site very inaccurate....No happy with hipcamp ..

We loved camping at Stephen & Janelle's. It was spacious, quiet and had lovely views. It was a great place from which to explore the Peninsula, with lovely beaches nearby. Would recommend for a peaceful stay.

We had the most amazing time at this campsite. Our hosts were so welcoming and helped us pick the best spot to set up in order to get the best view. And, boy were they not wrong! The setting was romantic, secluded and comfortable and both my partner and I were commenting on how we had never seen so many stars before. We opted for a wheelbarrow of firewood and enjoyed a beautiful campfire. Saw some sweet little animals and just relished in the stillness. We will definitely be back to this incredible site. Thankyou Stephen and Janelle for such a special time.

Stephen was incredibly welcoming and very knowledgeable about the surroundings! This was our first night in Tasmania and we had a very good first impression! We went for a quick walk to Pirates beach which was beautiful and even saw penguins at a spot Stephen recommended later on. Would reccommend 10/10

We arrived pretty late and Stephen greeted us. We came on a hunch of an Aurora and Stephen even called at 4am when it started to make sure we wouldn't miss it :) We only stayed a short night but would love to come back again.
