Our Story

With a rich history dating back to the 1800's situated in the pristine wilderness and idyllic surrounds of the Mole Creek Valley, Blackwood Park is proudly our home. Originally from warm, tropical Cairns, this is our very own 'escape to the country' that we are lucky enough to share with you.

Our Farm

With a range of livestock including alpacas, sheep, chooks, and even an apiary, our farm is a labour of love. Help feed our poultry and collect their organic eggs or, for our more adventurous guests, help us herd sheep between paddocks.

Our Gardens

Carefully manicured to perfection, our gardens offer tranquility along with a place to absorb the sound of nature. Our grounds and glasshouse allow you to help yourself to fresh seasonal herbs, fruit, and vegetables for a healthy afternoon snack or a meal back in your private cottage.

What our
guests say


 

“Our favourite stay in Tasmania. We loved the farm stay experience with the kids entertained by alpacas, chickens, goats, sheep and of course Otto the dog. Mole Creek was also the perfect location for trips west to Cradle Mountain and east Liffey falls. We will be back for our next trip.”

“This experience was by far the nicest, warmest and most rejuvenating stay I have had in a long time. We stayed in an Ariel Cottage and is was sensational. The newly built sandstone property was exquisitely built. The craftsmanship of the building was really quite extraordinary. Everything you need is there, but it was rustic and just very special. Everything is deluxe, from design to amenities and inclusions. The homemade bread, jam and butter, the fresh bacon, it was all divine. But like all places, the hosts and the warm hospitality of Shane and Yuko are what really made us feel like we were somewhere special.”

“I cannot speak highly enough of our stay in the Heritage Cottage. We stayed three nights with our 9 and 2 year old. The accommodation was clean and homely. Shane and Yuko were fabulous hosts and made us feel so incredibly welcome into their home. My children loved feeding the chickens and ducks and absolutely loved the alpacas and lambs. We really appreciated all the little touches in the cottage - the wood, milk, juice and breakfast provisions were appreciated. The fact that a decorated Christmas tree had been placed in the living space was a fabulous touch which we really appreciated. The gardens that surround the cottage are absolutely stunning, the views amazing and the property well maintained and idyllic.”
