Welcome to The Top Paddock!! @ Wobbly Gate Estate, Yolla, Tasmania. This is glamping with a side of real camping in the Tasmanian bush. Goats and sheep will stroll around and you have over 20 acres all to yourself to explore. We're located up a gravel road on the northwest coast, you won't find any other tourists here. Soak in the woodfired tub, under the blackwood tree. Cosy up to the wood fire, roasting marshmallows in your star Gazer yurt. A comfy queen bed and a backyard of adventure, it's a Tasmanian version of luxury camping. Our Yurt location is known as The Top Paddock - A Little Inside Information: Well in my opinion (and a few others) I am Living The Dream! I started living here permanently seven years ago, most of the property's out dwellings and the Cabin is built from recycled, reclaimed materials or been handed down. I am fully off the grid and in the process of trying to become self-sufficient. The water is pumped from a springfed dam and mostly gravity-ed. It's a little like McDonald's Farm, an array of birds and animals. There's an orchard, hothouse and a Raspberry patch which may be my favourite spot when they're fruiting. It really is an amazing lifestyle, peaceful, relaxing and rewarding. You should come see for yourself 😉

1 night at Rivers Edge

The campsite itself was lovely and nice and private. I specifically chose this property because it was advertised as contactless camping, as I really wanted somewhere I could arrive, set up and just have some space to myself. The owner did come down to introduce himself after we arrived. He was perfectly friendly, but it did catch me off guard given the “contactless” description, and unfortunately it left me feeling a little less private and secluded than I’d expected for the rest of the stay. Overall it was a nice spot, but I think it would be worth clarifying what “contactless” means in the listing, as for some campers that may be an important reason for choosing the property.

Check for any park alerts or closures before your visit.
Wear sturdy footwear and carry weather-appropriate clothing for changeable conditions.
Ensure you have a valid parks pass for entry.

Like a lot of places along the north coast of Tasmania there are amazing views from the lighthouse in Rocky Cape National Park. A lovely place to spend a few hours.

Explore, Enjoy. We did :-)

What an amazing place to visit! Good access road with only a few kilometres of well maintained gravel road. The rocky cliffs meet Bass Strait dramatically with gorgeous beaches filling the void between the lines of rocky protrusions. The rich Indigenous history adds an extra dimension to the experience. Enjoyable short walks cap off this fabulous experience.
