The Duck Hole at Farnese Olivo
Where To Stay Hobart, Hobart, Tasmania
This is a hosted stay through Hipcamp, below is the information provided by the Host regarding their offering.
Farnese Olivo is a family hobby farm set on 5 acres overlooking the Coal River Valley in Acton Park, just 15 minutes from Hobart CBD. The Duck Hole is a historic farm dam offering a quiet rural experience. We highly recommend 4WD only between April and August due to large amounts of rain periodically. All campers have free access to:
– potable drinking water
– shower (open air, cold only)
– outdoor basic cassette/camp toilet for tent bookings only, we ask if you are self contained to use your own facilities
– rubbish bins
– fire pit and firewood
– cast iron bbq plate and skillets for cooking in the fire pit
– picnic table and chairs overlooking the dam
– dam side hammock The property was established in the early 1980s on the site of one of Hobarts oldest farms (the original house built in 1826 still stands as a beautiful family home 2 doors up on our street). We are home to three friendly hand reared sheep – Daisy, Frank and Bill who love pats and food.
