A friendly welcome awaits you at BIG4 Kelso Sands Holiday Park which is a tranquil place set on 36 acres and surrounded by pine trees. Come and rest a while and visit the Tamar Valley and its attractions and experience one of Tasmania's best holiday parks which has a 4 star AAA rating. At night and sometimes late afternoon you can see wombats in their natural surroundings, also tasmanian devils, cheeky possums, potoroos, wallabies, the eastern spotted quoll and frog mouth owls. Watch the ships sailing in and out of the mighty Tamar River or go for a long walk along the deserted river beach where the only footprints in the sand are your own and view a variety of migratory seabirds hunting for food on the sand flats while watching the beautiful sunsets with Low Head lighthouse as a back drop.
If you like a spot of fishing then this is the place for you and if you have a boat then there is a brand new boat ramp at Kelso 2 minutes away or Clarence Point 4 minutes drive. Gathering wild oysters on the banks of the Tamar straight off the park is another rewarding activity at low tide and they're not too bad done on the BBQ with a little dab of garlic butter.
Your discovery of the Tamar Valley and its many tourist attractions can start here. Visit Beaconsfield Goldmine, Platypus House and the Seahorse World all 10 minutes away.After all that put your feet up and watch the kids playing on the jumping pillow and enjoying a swim in the solar heated swimming pool or riding their bikes and exploring the Enchanted Forest where the wombats live, or play a game of cricket or soccer while the toddlers play in the sand pit or idle their time in the play area. This would be one of the best family parks in Tassie.
After all that you can make your way to the camp kitchen and use the gas Bar-B-Que to cook a good Tassie steak while watching the wildlife and in the summer months enjoy the long balmy evening.
Sorry, no pets.
So come on, come stay with us and find out all about Tasmania's second best kept secret.
