Great choices to put your tent anywhere in the paddock. Awesome shower and camp kitchen. The best part is the location to walk to PA and along the beach. Adriana’s talk in the evening is lovely as well.

Camping Perfection! This is the most beautiful camping spot, we truly didn’t want to leave. It is peaceful and we are so happy we found this camping treasure. Marion our host is such a giving caretaker who takes a genuine interest in all her campers. This is a unique experience, we will be back!

We had an amazing time at Semaphore Farm. It’s a beautiful, quiet location with fantastic facilities. Even better, it’s dog friendly! We were here 8 nights over Christmas and New Year and will definitely be back. The property is in a great location, walking distance to the Port Arthur Historic Site and multiple dog friendly beaches and a short drive to other local attractions.

We LOVED staying at Semaphore Farm Camp and meeting Marian, our host. The views are spectacular, it’s within walking distance to the Port Arthur ruins, I LOVED the rustic lounge area, was grateful to be able to top up our van with the delicious local spring water and loved that I could take my beautiful dog with us.
The highlight for us was spending time chatting with Marian and hearing about the history of the farm and how the camp came to be – it’s her family’s camp. So keep this in mind when you go. Some things for people to know before they go:

• The sites are hilly and, being a big rig, we had a bit of trouble betting onto our site. But it is doable and definitely worth it.
• The facilities are rustic – this is camp, not a resort. I’ve seen people complain that it’s a drop-loo. Guys, you’re in the bush, expect it. Most Aussie’s are used to a drop loo, they’re fine.
• Marian, the host, likes to meet her guests and give them a bit of history about the camp. Expect this. It’s only fair that a host would want to know who’s on their private property. And if you put the timelines together, you’ll understand why this is so important in this part of the world. We LOVED our stay, thoroughly enjoyed meeting and chatting with Marian and we will definitely be back. Only for longer next time.
