A peaceful country escape on 81 acres of rich, green agricultural land — right at the edge of the Tarkine wilderness. Welcome to The Cottage at Mistover Farm and Galloway Stud, where wide‑open paddocks, fresh country air, and the quiet rhythm of farm life create a stay that feels both grounding and unforgettable. Set on 81 acres of lush, fertile land, our property offers guests a rare blend of comfort, nature, and authentic rural charm. Home to beautiful Galloways, the farm is alive with gentle movement and the soft sounds of horses grazing. Guests often enjoy watching the stud horses in the paddocks, adding a unique and peaceful backdrop to your stay. Mistover Farm sits right on the doorstep of the Tarkine wilderness, one of Tasmania's most extraordinary natural regions. From towering forests to wild rivers and ancient landscapes, the Tarkine begins just beyond our boundary — making this the perfect base for explorers, hikers, photographers, and nature lovers. Their dam is home to a resident platypus, a rare and magical sight for many guests. The property also supports abundant native flora and fauna, including wallabies, birdlife, and seasonal wildflowers. Whether you're wandering the paddocks or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, nature is always close.

This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering. Tucked high above the Cam River, this 177-acre hideaway is part ancient native rainforest, native eucalypyt and radiata pine plantation – the perfect mix of wild Tasmania and peaceful seclusion. The adventure starts the moment you arrive. Drop your pack, breathe in the pine-scented air, and pitch your tent on the flat, shady clearings beside or rustic amenities shed. Golden light filters through the canopy, wallabies bounce past at dusk, and the only soundtrack is birdsong and the crackle of your own private campfire. Feeling energetic? Lace up your boots for the legendary "Giant Fern Track" – a heart-pumping descent down an old logging trail straight out of Jurassic Park. At the bottom, massive tree ferns (some 60+ years old) form a cool, green cathedral beside the rushing Cam River. It's steep, it's wild, and it's 100 % worth it.
