  Convenient, Friendly and Family Feel Accommodation

  Of all cabins we have stayed in Tasmania, I have found Hadspen Discovery Park to be more convenient and with a friendly, family feel to it. There are no boomgates to access the site (I like this idea), staff will give you a map of the park and Wi-Fi password Wi-Fi connection is fast too. The self-contained Standard Cabin I booked was very spacious, comfortable and well laid out. The beds come with clean linen and towels, with complimentary mini bathroom accessories (shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion). A complimentary coffee and tea starter kit is provided (including 300ml milk in the fridge). Offers one free marked car park space per cabin (right beside the cabin). An impressive, neat and clean park but what makes this park more convenient compared with the others I have stayed at, is that they have an IGA Supermarket and Fuel Station next door to Reception. This is great, as I had to find nearby supermarkets to stock up on our groceries, while at Hadspen Discovery Park, it only takes a two-minute walk to IGA convenient right? It has all your necessary amenities plus more! I asked staff at reception, what are the hours to use their laundry, to which she replied that it is opened 24/7 terrific! As I have chosen Day 5 of our Tassie holiday to do our laundry at about 11pm. Both washing machines and dryer costs $4 per machine, the washing machine takes approximately 40 minutes and the dryer takes approximately 20 minutes to complete the cycle. They have Guests Herb Garden beautifully laid out, that you may help yourself for meal requirements. Amongst the herbs, there were strawberries and a plethora of passionfruit growing. I did have a couple of strawberries, they were yum but unfortunately no passionfruit as the fruit was still green (we were there during late December 2019 / early January 2020). It was their Guests Herb Garden that gave it the friendly, family feel to this park just like back at home, having your own herb garden growing. Not too far to drive to Launceston if you want to have take-out or better still, take advantage have take-out from the IGA store next door to Reception, they offer hot foods which is cooked on the premise as well, at a very fair price (I have attached their menu). Along the path on Winifred Jane Crescent, there is a street library situated next to the noticeboard, for you to freely choose a book to your liking to take back and read for free a nice community touch and incentive to read. The park is not too far from South Esk River if you love to spend some time fishing. Or do what we did and visit The Cataract Gorge and Penny Royal as a family fun day out. I highly recommend this park if youre looking for somewhere convenient, friendly and not too far from attractions when in Launceston.

  Good Launceston base

  We just stayed at this quiet and family friendly little park as a base for our Launceston leg of our Tassie family holiday ! The park has a good camp kitchen with a laundry attached with 3 washing machines and dryers ! The camp kitchen also had a coffee machine ($3.00 for coffee/Capacinno ). There is also a very well stocked herb garden outside the camp kitchen and a small outside fire pit with wooden chairs to sit on around the fire ! The showers and toilets were great and well equipped ( 4 toilets and 4 showers in females ). However , I found the hot water tricky to control and found later in the stay that it is flow controlled ( needed to be at high flow for hot water to come through). There was also a games room which my two teenage kids enjoyed ! The park also has a small, very well stocked IGA right at the front gate, which was very much appreciated!! The park is close to most attractions - about 1 hour to Ross and Beauty Point - with about a 15 minute trip to Launceston!! All in all a great stay with friendly, helpful staff at reception.

  Stop over after doing overland trek

  Given site for good internet connection. Satisfied with location until barking dog and woman washing her car next to our site. She actually moved her car from her site to wash it next to us. Therefore, mud and wet ground we had to deal with. Good park for passing through but would not recommend for the long stay.

  Stopover

  I booked into a std ensuite cabin. The cabin had curtains falling down and had a really bad smell. I complained and was upgraded to a superior, very helpful young lady. This was much better, linen was clean, bed comfortable and a wood effect fire. There has been obvious upgrades. The stay was pleasant.
