The Caledon Crawl

This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering. Prossers Ridge Richmond is 52 acres of rural paradise within close proximity to the heritage town of Richmond. The topography slopes up from the road to a large flat top and is dotted with weathered gum trees. There are sweeping views in all directions, including a view of the sunrise to the east and spectacular sunset views toward Hobart's Kunanyi (Mount Wellington). The property has good access for all vehicles, and there are plenty of flat sites for camping at the top of the property. Some minor leveling may be required in parts for RVs. Plenty of space though to find your own peaceful, private patch. And you're welcome to bring your doggo along too! We can only accept self-contained campers, so you'll need to have your own camp toilet. There is a dump point within 10km, located in Sorell. Situated within the Coal Valley Wine Region and just 30 minutes from Hobart, the property is the perfect location for travelers looking to sample glorious local food and wine, before returning to their picturesque base camp to recharge.

Immerse yourself in the ultimate nature experience as you unwind at ‘The Croft’ at Arden Retreat. Arden Retreat is on the outskirts of the historic village of Richmond in the Coal River Valley wine region, 30 minutes from Hobart in southern Tasmania. It is part family farm and part a preservation of Tasmanian bush. The Peppermint and Blue Gums provide habitat to many native animals, including a wedge-tailed eagle nest which is home to two striking "wedgies". The Croft at Arden is an exquisitely appointed two-bedroom cabin set amongst the gumtrees. The design, craftsmanship and interiors draw the built and natural environments together. The Blue Gum cladding is felled from the property. The glass frontage draws in natural light and warmth in abundance and the generous deck leads to a woodfired hot tub & fire pit. The architecturally designed space adjusts perfectly to accommodate singles, couples or a family. The primary pavilion consists of a separate main bedroom with king bed, open plan living, kitchen and bathroom. The second bedroom is linked via the atrium-style entrance. The Croft provides complete seclusion yet is located only 5 minutes from the cafes, shops and historic sites of Richmond.

Hatchers Manor Richmond offers self-contained accommodation on a working farm, just a stone's throw away from Richmond. Hatchers Manor is on a 100-acre farm and apricot orchard on the Coal River, a 25-minute drive from Hobart. Built in the gothic revival style, you'll be entranced by the sight of the round tower, steeply pitched roof, hand-painted decor and mullioned windows. Sleep in a four-poster king or queen-size bed in one of our rooms which all have ensuite facilities, spa baths, and antique furnishings. The self-contained two-bedroom cottage has full cooking facilities and accommodates up to five people. Start your day with a hearty country breakfast in our own coffee shop then perhaps stroll through the orchard and pastures, and meet the farm animals. Hatchers Richmond Manor is also an animal wildlife refuge, so you can also meet the wildlife. Hatchers Richmond Manor is within walking distance of Australia's finest Georgian village, Richmond, with its fine Georgian cottages, Australia's oldest working bridge, and a convict jail that predates Port Arthur. Our coffee shop/restaurant also offers cream teas in the afternoon and delicious home-cooked dinners in the evening. We also offer free Wi-Fi to all of our guests.
