Overview

Oatlands sits on the tranquil shores of Lake Dulverton in central Tasmania, just 84 km north of Hobart and 115 km south of Launceston. With a 2021 census population of 728, the town offers a relaxed, historic lifestyle surrounded by agricultural land and framed by 87 original sandstone buildings – the largest colonial sandstone collection in Australia. Residents enjoy easy access to landmarks such as the working Callington Mill, St Paul’s Church and the heritage‑grade Oatlands Court House, creating a strong sense of community and cultural depth.

Although the Midland Highway now bypasses the centre, the original route still links Oatlands to the state’s major north‑south corridor, and the former railway line (1885‑1949) reflects its historic role as a transport hub. Housing includes the historic sandstone homes alongside other dwellings set amid the surrounding farms, while nearby hills like Fernleigh Hill and Espies Hill provide outdoor recreation opportunities.
