    "I really liked staying at Longford Riverside Caravan Park. The caravan site was clean and comfy.

    My wife loved the quiet and pretty surroundings. They take good care of their garden, and being by the river was awesome.

    We would've stayed longer if we could.

    Thanks for a nice experience!"

    "By far the best site to stay at when visiting the Launceston area as not only is the whole campground beautifully kept, you get to visit Longford which is a stunning little town too.I can't believe it doesn't get more stars on here. Staff are friendly, grounds are so well cared for and the location is lovely.

    There is a great park, skate park and cycling trail nearby. The Hill Street has everything you need and JJs bakery does an awesome cuppa along with the other little cafes in the town. Get on it."

    Excellent caravan park not far out of Launceston (Longford). We stayed on an unpowered site which were beautiful grassy sites right next to the river. The facilities (laundry, bathroom/showers and camp kitchen) were all extremely clean and comfortable.

    We had to make a last minute change to our booking and bring it forward by a night, which they happily accommodated for us just an hour out from check in. Highly recommend this park!
