A small farm in the beautiful Central Highlands of Tasmania, near the best fishing spots in the country. We are on the Lyell Highway, halfway between the west coast and Hobart. Come and stay for a day or two. Enjoy clean air, wildlife and our farm animals. Help feed them if you like. Enjoy the quiet life in Tasmania. Go for day drives and be back at night. Launceston is only just over 2 hours drive. Or just sit under the trees and let life pass you by. We came here and never left. Dog friendly but dogs must be kept under control. Campers need their own amenities as there is no toilet or shower. Closest public toilets are at Wayatinah Village, about 10 kms away, where there is also a pub where you can get meals at night and a general store/post office/fuel outlet that is open for a couple of hours each day.

Paul was very helpful. Bought sourdough and duck eggs. Good resting stop between Strahan and Hobart. Need to be fully self contained. We took our dogs but needed to keep them on lead as there were animals on the property. Checked out the Highland cows and alpacas.

We loved our stay at Ravens Nest, Paul was a wonderful host, the bread and eggs we bought were great. We loved our night away, it was peaceful and away from suburbia to enjoy some downtime and we loved meeting the animals. Would recommend.

Thank you Lyn and Paul for letting us stay on your property. We had a mix up upon arrival and had to wait to enter the property as the gate was locked. Be prepared for total grid lock, no reception for mobile phones, TV or internet. We purchased a loaf of sour dough bread, still warm, so fresh and delivered to our van by Paul. We went to Tarraleah, Brady’s Lake and Waddamana. Heaps of places to visit and lots to do. Our dogs (Labradors) loved the property, it was a quick getaway as we are from Hobart.

Great spot to spend the night with Paul & Lyn being the perfect hosts. Paul baked us sourdough and delivered it to our van in the morning, it was still warm. He also brought us fresh farm eggs and a jar of his honey. We met Rex the Maremma and the two Highland cows.

We had a lovely & peaceful stay at Ravens Nest. Paul was a great host, introducing us to all the animals they care for. Special favourites were the highland cows (Jake & Dylan) and Rex the dog. Plenty of room for our large caravan & we really enjoyed being able to have a camp fire. Paul was very generous with his local knowledge. We even left with freshly baked sourdough bread & a dozen fresh eggs!

A great place to pull in for a night or two. Paul is an absolute legend. The shop sells yummy honey and fresh bread & eggs. The animals are all rescues and adorable. Great stay thanks Paul!

Lovely property with many rescue animals and wildlife. Paul and Lyn were great hosts and we bought some eggs and bread from them as we were leaving. Many good spots to camp and a great feed up at Wayatinah Tavern which is only a few ks up the road. Will definitely stop by again next time I’m in Tassie.

Very nice and convenient location. The site is a quiet paddock with some lovely trees and plenty of good campsites. Heaps of wood for a cozy camp fire and lots of wildlife. The host was very welcoming and offered to bake a fresh loaf of bread in the morning. There are no facilities at this site but if you bring your own (especially water), you'll be right. I would definitely come here again.

What a lovely place to camp! We could have spent hours and days chilling and reading books on the trees, having fun with our little one, and befriending the many animals. Such a lovely place to stop along the road to the west and to be surrounded by nature and serenity.

We enjoyed staying on the property - particularly being able to set up the tents on the grass. Our hosts included our older teenagers in some of the farm activities and they enjoyed being able to interact with the animals. There is a lovely small stall on the property where we were able to purchase tasty farm produce (jam, honey and sourdough bread). A relaxing place experience.
