Good location to visit all the attractions of Bruny Island. Access was tricky with our larger caravans ,it would be good for the gate entry to be bigger and better signage. Right next to the Bread fridge. If you need more wood, unfortunately we forgot our chainsaw, plenty available from the Brunt pub, where we had to have a beer.

Spacious dog-friendly camp spot!

Nice little campsite right next to the famous Bruny Bread Fridge! Huge open field with plenty of room for tents or vans. We were hammock camping and there were a few tree options to hang from. We ended up being the only ones there, so had heaps of space!

Camping in 19 foot caravan⛺️

Fabulous spot for a camp, we had the whole place to ourselves. The green grass was beautiful and lush for our baby to play on. Plenty of wildlife action at night. Oh and may I add perfect place to get your fresh warm bread from The Bruny Bakers corner. 😍 Would definitely stay again! We took our 19 foot caravan in and no problems getting in and out using the spot opposite the gate. We drove up past the gate backed into the spot and drove in, and to leave we reversed out the gate into the spot and then drove out easily. Plenty of space to choose from. Thanks Again!
