Sheepwash Road Campground

A beautiful, peaceful and luscious green site with plenty of spots to choose from. We enjoyed our time at Sheepwash Road Campgrounds. Our host, Karen, provided many helpful suggestions of places to visit whilst enjoying our stay on Bruny Island. Remember to bring along mozzie repellent. Have no hesitation in recommending this camp spot as it’s a little peace of paradise.

We had a great stay at Sheepwash Road, it was easy to access with our car and tent, and is a great base to get around Bruny Island. The hosts were wonderful, very friendly and easy to communicate with. Would recommend a stay here!

This was a great spot to stay and explore Bruny Island. Being beside the bread fridge also allowed us to score a loaf of the delicious sour dough! Thank you for a great stay!
