Tynwald Park

Reviewed By I8040FUjillw

Level playing fields for football, cricket, soccer etc. A basket ball hoop off to the side, to add to the entertainment, a cricket cage for practice, exercise equipment, a kiddies safety cycle road set up, a great kids play ground, picnic and bbq facilities, gazebos, toilet facilities, a surrounding walk track, lots of parking, situated right beside kms of river walk tracks, dogs allowed on a leash.. this place ticks all the boxes. Nice to see the new bridge beside the park to allow access to the town side of the river after the last was washed away in flooding. Hats off to New Norfolk council for this great park!

Willow Court Antique Centre

Reviewed By raelp2020

I’m a Tasmanian but travel to New Norfolk every couple of years just to look at what’s available at this HUGE antique store. It holds so much stock you could stay for an hour going from room to room. It’s the best and varied shop that I’ve ever visited. It has not only antiques but new items too. If you’re over 50 you’ll find and reminisce about the reminders of our childhood. if you’re near New Norfolk you’ll love this shop and very likely find a treasure within your budget.

Pulpit Rock Lookout

Reviewed By choml2017

Definitely a great short trip option from Hobart to check out the awesome view of New Norfolk and Derwent river. It is about 35 mins drive from Hobart city centre. There is a section of narrow road before you reach the lookout point, and there is a signage saying only light vehicle are allowed to go through. There isn't any clear directional signage to point you to the lookout point but it is pretty straight forward if you follow Goolemap.

If you have the time and are inclined to visit markets then this country town market is right up there with the biggies, like Hobart's Salamanca Markets. Take a stroll down the main street, meet the friendly stall holders and head off home with a good feeling, lots of bargains and a big smile.

Salmon Ponds Heritage Hatchery and Gardens

Reviewed By Jovimia

New Years Day, 2021 and so very few restaurants open in the New Norfolk / Hamilton area. But this lovely area and its restaurant were. Nice to see people enjoying the various trout ponds and the amazing range of beautiful trees in this well kept park. Glad we stopped for lunch here.

Willow Court Asylum

The beautiful and historic Willow Court & Barracks precinct will be open for tours and a full program of activities in a not to be missed opportunity to explore and learn about Australia’s oldest continually run mental hospital and Military Barracks that pre-dates Port Arthur.Open day coincides with Frascati garden tours—once the Hospital Superintendent’s residence This is a rare opportunity not to be missed!

Reviewed By matttas - Greater Hobart, Australia

The industrial collection of old cars, trucks, and machinery for sale in the gardens was amazing. The setting for this is a vast array of old buildings that have an interesting story in themselves as a historical part of mental health care in Tasmania. The mind boggles as to the stories hidden in the walls of each room that is filled with collections of people's lives. Hayden and Penny have done an amazing job to develop this thus far, well done on persistence and ingenuity to create a place of future dreams.
