    Love how child friendly Tasman Holiday park is. Lots of things to do. We had a text letting us know the woodfire pizza oven was being lit, bring your own pizza. Dinner for us wasn't planned so this was very cool added bonus. So much to explore but we were just so busy elsewhere. Have already recommended this place to friends and family :-)
