Beautiful 8 acre property situated on the edge of the Craigbourne Dam, 2 minutes from the township of Colebrook and 50 minutes from the Hobart CBD. Our property offers are great getaway experience for any traveller. The Craigbourne Dam is a all year round recreational fishing ground and stocks many species of fish i.e. Atlantic Salmon, Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout to name a few. Our property is a pet friendly park but we do ask all patrons to be considerate of the surrounding farmland and live stock . As we are a fully self contained campground we do not provide power, toilets or showers. You'll need to have your own amenities and discard of any rubbish . Limit phone coverage but still enough to call/text Contained campfires permitted when restrictions aren't in place. Firewood for sale for a small fee (see Extras). IMPORTANT : Any guest that wish to fish the Craigbourne Dam will be asked to purchase a angling license for the duration of their stay . Thanks

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Craigbourne Estate offers a picturesque camping experience with stunning views over a dam, though the water level can be low at times. Guests appreciate the tranquility and the warm hospitality of hosts Callum and Natalie, who ensure a welcoming stay. The open space allows for a peaceful escape, though it can be windy without much shelter. Visitors often mention the abundance of birdlife and the friendly presence of the hosts' dog, adding to the charm of the place.
