Tasmanian Autumn Festival

This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering. Take time to enjoy this very special place on the lake to pitch a tent or park your van by the yurt. There is a fire pit to roast some marshmallows, watch the stars and even take a dive off the pontoon into the beautiful cool waters, or bring your kayaks and paddle the shores.  Cluny Dun Lagoon is a great base as situated near Ouse so a perfect location to visit the Florentine Valley, Mt Field and many other nearby attractions. The tranquillity and privacy will leave you a wonderful feeling of peace. This is a fantastic place to unwind, take a swim with your dog and just hang out with the very special access to the lagoon.  The yurt has been there for about 14 years and we have hosted rowing events, parties with bands, bike riding groups and horse riding, amongst other enjoyable activities. There are no amenities here, campers must be self-contained and leave no trace.

Located an hour's drive north west of Hobart in the quaint little town of Ouse (pronounced - ooze) and set on the pristine Derwent River. Like so many of the towns on the Derwent River, this region is very popular with bushwalkers, fishing enthusiasts, and mountain bike riders. Overlooking the "pot-belly" of the Derwent River, you can enjoy the sound of the calm flowing water and birdlife of the river. This place is a fishing and kayaking heaven - you only need to walk a few metres to get to the river's edge. Have a swim in summer, kayak or go for an adventure on your mountain bike. There are two kayaks and two SUPs you are welcome to use. And there is a boat ramp just a few kilometres down the road to launch your boat. The Bunkhouse is a beautifully built structure, with large windows and plenty of space. It's two-storey, with an upper open-plan level accommodating 8 people in single bunk beds. A further two guests can sleep on the large sofa bed downstairs.

Escape the stress, relax, and enjoy a peaceful escape on 132 acres of forest and farm at Sassafras Springs. Collect fresh eggs and produce from the organic orchard and vegetable garden. Sassafras Springs has six unique cottages offering cosy self-contained accommodation for two, four or six people. It is a great hub for all the activities of Mt Field National Park, Maydena and Lake Meadowbank. The private forest walks on the Sassafras Springs include temperate rainforest and a fern-lined rushing creek. It is also a convenient and comfortable sleepover spot with welcoming fireplaces and complimentary port on the route to Strahan and the West Coast. The one-and-a-half-hour drive from Hobart passes through the antique shop town of New Norfolk and the beautiful Derwent Valley.
