HOTEL OVERVIEW

Nestled in the historic mining town of Zeehan on Tasmania’s rugged west coast, the 3-star Zeehan Bush Camp offers travelers an authentic Australian wilderness experience without sacrificing comfort. Located at 1 Hurst Street in Zeehan, this highly-rated accommodation option (boasting an impressive 8.5/10 rating from previous guests) serves as the perfect base for exploring Tasmania’s wild western frontier. The camp’s strategic position places guests at the gateway to some of Australia’s most pristine wilderness areas, including the nearby Tarkine rainforest and the stunning coastal landscapes of the region. Zeehan itself, once one of Australia’s richest mining towns in the late 19th century, provides a fascinating backdrop of historical significance with its well-preserved heritage buildings and the award-winning West Coast Heritage Centre just minutes from the camp. The Zeehan Bush Camp combines rustic charm with modern conveniences, creating an environment where guests can truly connect with Tasmania’s natural beauty while enjoying comfortable accommodations. The 8.5 rating reflects the exceptional guest experience provided by the dedicated staff, who are known for their warm hospitality and extensive knowledge of local attractions. The camp offers various accommodation options to suit different needs and budgets, from powered sites for caravans and campervans to cozy cabins that provide shelter from Tasmania’s famously changeable weather. Each space is thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort while maintaining the authentic bush experience that draws visitors to this remote corner of Australia. The immaculately maintained grounds feature native plants and occasional wildlife visitors, creating a tranquil atmosphere that encourages relaxation after days spent exploring. Beyond the comfortable accommodations, what truly sets Zeehan Bush Camp apart is its proximity to some of Tasmania’s most spectacular natural wonders. The camp serves as an ideal launching point for day trips to Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park, Strahan and Macquarie Harbour, and the stunning Ocean Beach with its seemingly endless stretches of pristine sand. Adventure enthusiasts appreciate the camp’s proximity to world-class mountain biking trails, challenging hiking routes, and fishing spots, while those seeking a more relaxed experience can enjoy scenic drives through breathtaking landscapes or explore Zeehan’s rich mining heritage. After days of adventure, guests return to the welcoming atmosphere of the camp, where they can share stories around communal areas or retreat to their private accommodations to rest before another day of discovery in this remarkable region. The consistently high guest rating of 8.5 underscores the camp’s success in providing an authentic Tasmanian wilderness experience that keeps visitors returning year after year to this special corner of Australia.

Camp bbq by the camp fire pit was a great highlight of our stay.

What could be improved: Bunks not ideal for large adults but you are advised when you book so you can choose.

We stayed in a cabin & it was very clean & cosy. It had everything we needed for one night stay. The bed was very comfy & we had a great nights sleep. Would definitely recommend.

What could be improved: The lack of hand rail at the step going in & out of the cabin.

We were the only ones there, and I took a stroll around the empty tent camps. Within seconds, the camp commandant appeared to tell me that it was forbidden. Didn't leave me with a good impression of a relaxed bush camp.

Great location, nice and quiet. Felt safe and spread out. Clean cabin and a cosy night. Lovely proprietor who gave me heaps of local hot spots to visit around Zeehan.

What could be improved: We would love to have brought our own tents but otherwise a nice night between sleeping in our tent.
