Hadspen is a delightful township on the banks of the South Esk River. It has a mix of modern homes that are popular with young families, and wonderful colonial buildings dating back as far as 1820.

One notable historic building in Hadspen is the Red Feather Inn, a sandstone building that was one of the first coaching inns in Tasmania. It was built in 1844 by John Sprunt and is said to be haunted!

Entally House is a large country residence that was built in 1819 by Thomas Haycock Reiby, son of Thomas and Mary Reiby. The house and estate is a magnificent example of the rich, built heritage that exists between the townships of Hadpen, Carrick, Westbury and the connecting country lanes.

A range of accommodation options are readily available in Hadspen and the Hadspen Lions Park on the river bank is a great spot to have a picnic or simply relax and unwind.
