Know of a couple of pet friendly caravan parks in Tasmania?
Permalink  

Hi all, I will be heading down to Tasmania going across on 7/11 and hope to do free camping most of the time but a treat like staying in a PET friendly caravan park and having a nice hot shower etc would be great.  Any suggestions for good pet friendly parks anywhere in Tasmania?  I would appreciate your opinions.  thanks, dusty+dog

Last year I spent 4 months there with the wizzy Whippets.
Ok, Greens Beach at top of west Tamar highway is dog friendly, as is the beach.
The Caravan Park in Longford, just out of Launceston is also dog friendly, but pricey.
Deloraine CP very pretty, beside river, sensible prices with power - dog friendly.
Mole Creek has a CP that is dog friendly too, but I did not stay there so not sure about $$
Bothwell has a CP that is listed in Camps 6 - has power, free laundry, showers etc, very cheap. Small and when I stayed friendly.
There is also the Showgrounds at Hobart, they allow dogs, bit run down but as long as you are self contained (although they have toilets/showers) and power it is cheap for a city CP! Walking distance to major shop centre and buses in to city and to major attractions too.
....I mostly freedom camped though so do not have many more for you.

Enjoy
Annie

The caravan parks at Dover, Stanley, Queenstown, Zeehan are all pet friendly and quite pleasant to stay at.

Unless you absolutely have to have power at Dover you can stay for free in the paddock behind the Pub, toilets and showers in the pub when it is open, good meals and a big area up behind where the motorhomes park to let dogs have an off lead run if you wish!
