Gumleaves Bush Holidays
You can stay on the nearly 150 acres of natural Tasmanian bushland either in a self-contained cabin, a dormitory, your own camper van or a tent, a ten-minute drive from the coast and with facilities for groups of over a hundred.
Starting with the cabins at Gumleaves Bush Holidays, they are equipped with queen, bunk and sofa beds, in two and three-bedroom configurations so between six to ten can be accommodated (two types of two-bedroom cabin are on offer: the larger one can hold eight). Kitchens feature a small oven and stove, a fridge, a microwave and various extras such as utensils. Obviously you have a bathroom as well, and there are two fireplaces – on inside and another outdoors.
For those who prefer a lower-budget stay, Gum Grove dormitory has space for a maximum of sixty-four, commercial kitchens, plenty of dining space, an activity room which includes its own kitchenette, a barbecue area and a huge outdoor fireplace, ideal for telling ‘It was a dark and stormy night’-type stories. A second dormitory, called Candle Bark, sleeps twenty-one, also with a large kitchen, a dining area and an outdoor barbecue area. Depending on availability, an extra eight may stay in a set of outside cabin rooms.
Finally, there is an amenities block, a barbecue area and a communal fireplace, along with powered sites for guests to plug their caravans into. The camp site, next to the lake, park and obstacle course, has fire pots, a camp kitchen, barbecue areas, a communal fireplace and various amenities to make your stay that bit more comfortable than if you were just roughing it.
On site activities at Gumleaves Bush Holidays includes boating on Lake Mulga, mini golf, tennis, tyres for swinging on, a children’s playground and the previously mentioned obstacle course. Bush walkers are in their element here, and it is perfect for anyone who has brought a bike. There are resident deer and horses you are welcome to give a carrot to at feeding time, or head off to the small fishing town of Triabuna, just fifteen minutes away, where you can catch the ferry to Maria Island. Day trips that are ideal from Gumleaves include the seaside town of Swansea, Zoodoo Zoo, Richmond and the truly wonderful beauty of Freycinet National Park, about an hour away by car.
