Old Kempton Distillery and Cafe

This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering. Beautiful 8-acre property situated on the edge of the Craigbourne Dam, 5 minutes from the township of Colebrook and 40 minutes from the Hobart CBD. The property offers a great getaway experience for any traveller. The Craigbourne Dam is an all-year-round recreational fishing ground and stocks many species of fish including Atlantic Salmon, Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout to name a few. The property is a pet-friendly park but we do ask all patrons to be considerate of the surrounding farmland and livestock. As we are in the early stages of providing grounds for travellers/caravans we are unable to provide power, toilets or showers. You will need to have your own amenities and leave no trace when you leave. Contained campfires are permitted when restrictions aren't in place and firewood is for sale for a small fee. Please note, that any guest that wishes to fish the Craigbourne Dam will be asked to purchase an angling license for the duration of their stay.

The Picker's Hut is a luxury cabin perched dramatically above the Jordan Valley in southern Tasmania, just 40 minutes from Hobart. With one Queen bedroom and one King bedroom (which can be arranged as two singles), the hut provides exceptional comfort for up to four guests. The Picker’s Hut was designed to capture the essence of the natural landscape - huge windows in every room provide a panoramic view of the vineyard and the valley. The north-facing location and a huge outdoor deck capture the beautiful all-day sun. You can sit by the cosy stone fireplace and admire the vines, or relax on the deck and take in the unique landscape of the valley and see if you can spot the farm workers herding sheep or ploughing paddocks.
