Black Cockatoos' Rest is a great base camp from which to explore this beautiful region of Tasmania. Locally, take a short walk into historic Franklin where you can enjoy a picnic on the foreshore, kids' playground, and even pull out the fishing rod to see what you might catch. Franklin has cafes, restaurants, and pubs to enjoy a nice cuppa or a good meal if you don't want to cook at the end of the day. 30 minutes south you can enjoy Tahune Airwalk a fantastic day trip, another 40 minutes south enjoy the beauty of Dover then travel to Hastings Caves and the thermal pool.

Beautiful spot with amazing views over the river valley. Loved our 3 night stay. Wendy and and Chris are very friendly and warm hosts. The rustic "Cockys Kitchen" would be a great place to hang and read or play games if the weather was poor with a little fire there as well.

March long weekend
The view from this spot was amazing. Very windy spot due to the hight of the position of the camp site. It would be better with a grassy ground or gravel than dirt. The wind caused us to be covered in dirt. Very good hosts, directions were very clear and detailed.

Great greeting & check in, lovely site with gorgeous view that suited us and our pooch. We didn’t use the facilities being self contained but it looked like they were good. I’m sure we’ll go back.
