The Best Glamping in Tasmania for a Luxe Wilderness Retreat
If you want to be as close to nature as possible without sleeping on the ground, here are the best spots for glamping in Tasmania.
Glamping – it’s camping made chic. Where you won't spend hours attempting to bash tent pegs into the ground or sleep with a rock digging into your back. Cold showers get swapped for luxurious soaks in outdoor tubs and basic camping fare is replaced with an elevated dining experience.
Glamping has all the back-to-nature appeal of camping but with chic comfiness as an added bonus. Given the state’s glorious natural beauty, it’s no great shock that glamping in Tasmania is next level good. Stars as far as the eye can see, spectacular sunsets and seemingly endless wilderness; if you want to get away from the relentless hustle of the city, this is how to do it.
We’ve rounded up the best glamping in Tasmania for you to put on your list for your next bush getaway.

Truffle Lodge
Just 45 minutes out of Hobart near the town of Gretna, the stunning Truffle Lodge is the perfect spot to try out glamping in Tasmania. Built on the banks of the Derwent River in the style of a traditional Aussie bush camp, there are also touches of Middle Eastern and steampunk design in the décor of the canvas tents.
Each of the property’s eight tents has luxurious comfy beds, riverfront positioning and private ensuites fitted out with handmade wooden bathtubs and rain showers. If chilling on the riverbank isn’t for you, Truffle Lodge is handily located near some incredible wilderness ready to be explored, including the pristine Mount Field National Park.
You can even add-on experiences like fly fishing or a private tailored cellar door crawl.

Bay of Fires Bush Retreat
Tassie’s north-east coast is rugged and beautiful, with its distinctive orange-tinged rocks and white-sand beaches lapped by azure waves. Binalong Bay, one of the area’s most famous beaches, is home to Bay of Fires Bush Retreat and its cute bell tents – perfect for your next glamping adventure. Stunningly yet simply decorated, the tents all have king sized beds and heating for those cooler nights.
The site has communal kitchen and bathroom facilities, and if you don’t feel like cooking you can order pre-prepared meals (and even a pre-prepared breakfast platter) from the in-house chef. There’s also a platter bar where you can pick up plenty of yummy treats, plus Tassie beer and wine.
3 Reids Road, Binalong Bay
Numie
On the east coast’s stunning Freycinet Peninsula is Numie, a pared-back glamping experience with an emphasis on privacy. There’s only three glamping sites on the property and each has its own ensuite bathroom, dining pod with festoon lights and private BBQ area.
The tents each have comfortable queen-size beds and wood fires for the cooler months, as well as mosquito nets for summertime. On the site’s doorstep are activities like kayaking, cruises and hikes in Freycinet National Park – with Wineglass Bay obviously a must-visit.
65 Flacks Road, Coles Bay
Littlegrove
If you want a classic yurt version of glamping in Tasmania, Bruny Island’s Littlegrove is a must-stay. Built on an olive grove in Adventure Bay, arguably Bruny’s best beach, the property offers stunning views of the Island’s famous Fluted Cape – if you can tear your eyes away from the incredible yurts, that is.
Built out of wood panels with wool-lined walls and decorated with vintage pieces thrifted by hosts Jess and Mark from around the world, you’ll fall in love with your yurt home straight away. That’s without mentioning the private (pink!) bathtub on your patio. Bliss.
McPhersons Road, Adventure Bay
Aquila Richmond
Around half an hour out of Hobart in beautiful and historic Richmond, Aquila Richmond has off-grid eco pods and a glamping tent with views of rolling hills and sandstone cliffs. Decked out in Huon pine with a kitchenette, wood heater and a Victorian clawfoot bath on the private balcony, this serene setup epitomises glamping in Tasmania.
Helpfully situated in the Coal River region, you can spend your days visiting cellar doors, chocolatiers and cheese makers before bringing your goodies back to enjoy while watching the sun go down.
739 Brinktop Road, Richmond
Domescapes
In the north of Tasmania nestled in the Tamar Valley Wine Route is Domescapes, a truly unique glamping experience. Instead of tents or yurts, you sleep in a glass geodesic dome – double-glazed, fully insulated and designed to allow you to stargaze from all angles. (Don’t worry, there’s curtains to pull across for privacy!)
Built in an actual working vineyard, each dome has an ensuite and private deck including a bathtub, so once you’ve picked up a few bottles at the cellar door, you can come back to enjoy them with absolutely no pesky interruptions. Each guest receives a free cheese platter as part of their booking, too.
103 Glendale Road, Sidmouth
Scamander Sanctuary Holiday Park
On the beautiful east coast of Tasmania is Scamander Sanctuary Holiday Park, a glamping spot with plenty of tents on offer. For bigger groups, there’s the safari tents (one, two and three-bedroom varieties) and for more intimate stays, the property has smaller bell tents to cosy up in. While the safari tents are fully self-contained, the bell tents have shared kitchen and bathroom facilities.
If you’re keen to get out and about during the day, the town of Scamander is in the perfect spot just a short drive from the Bay of Fires and three national parks: Freycinet National Park, Douglas-Apsley National Park and Ben Lomond National Park.
1 Winifred Drive, Scamander
The Top Paddock
The Top Paddock is the quintessential glamping in Tasmania experience – on a farm surrounded by sheep and goats, smack in the middle of the bush. Located in Yolla, in the state’s northwest about an hour from Cradle Mountain, this property is the definition of “off the beaten track”.
The tent is set on 20 acres and you’re free to roam around and explore in complete privacy. At the end of the day, soak in the wood-fired private tub or toast marshmallows over the open fire. You’ll see nothing but stars (and the occasional sheep) around you.
Off Sweetmans Road, Yolla
Riversong
A tranquil glamping experience right on the banks of the Tyenna River, Riversong is located just over an hour from Hobart and is right on the doorstep of Mount Field National Park, making it the perfect base to relax after a long day of hiking.
The tent is surrounded by ferns and acacia trees, with any sound of civilsation (like the main road behind it) drowned out by the bubbling river it sits beside. You’ll find it equipped with a cosy indoor fire, a beautiful private deck and its own ensuite – plus an esky to keep your food and drinks cool.
2900 Gordon River Road, Tyenna
