Woodcutters RV
Woodcutters RV is a beautiful waterfront campsite at 621 Kilora Road, on the west side of North Bruny Island in Tasmania. It caters to fully self-contained RV and caravan travellers as there are no amenities.
The campground is about 30 minutes from the ferry terminal at Roberts Point. Woodcutters is located right on the water, offering not only the best sunsets in Tasmania, but the option of harvesting and cooking up the most delicious oysters as well!
Advanced bookings are a must.

General Comments
We stayed at Woodcutters RV when we first visited Bruny Island, and it definitely helped shape our love for the location. We saw the best sunsets we’d seen to date, and it was a really peaceful campground – it comes as no surprise that we stayed on for four nights!
The campsite was on a farm, and suitable only for fully self-contained RVs and caravans. It was a very sheltered spot on the side of a hill, with little levels that you could park you caravan on. Woodcutters probably had enough space to take 10 caravans if everyone spread out.
We stayed right down the bottom and it was beautiful! We were smack bang on the water, had fires by the waterside, and were even able to launch our boat from there. It was a bit difficult to launch the boat due to the rocks and oysters, but those same oysters provided us with an epic cook up one night. At low tide we walked down to the water and picked from literally hundreds of oysters which we crumbed and cooked on the campfire in oil – they were the best panko oysters we’d ever eaten.
We enjoyed fires on the beach, there was a jetty there to fish off (which the kids loved!), and the sunsets were far too spectacular for words.
