Overview

Travellers Rest is a semi‑rural residential locality that sits on the edge of Greater Launceston, split between the Meander Valley (98 %) and Northern Midlands (2 %) councils. At the 2016 census the area recorded 305 residents, many of whom enjoy a countryside setting just 24 km east of Westbury. The community is set against the north‑western boundary of the South Esk River, offering a mix of spacious rural allotments and modest homes that cater to both families and retirees seeking a quieter lifestyle.

The Bass Highway (National Route 1) runs straight through Travellers Rest, providing quick road links to Launceston and the surrounding regions. Within a short 2‑km drive residents can reach the Country Club Tasmania hotel and its casino, while the nearby town of Hadspen adds basic services and social hubs. The surrounding hills, Strahans Hill, Cherry Tree Hill and White Hill, enhance the area’s scenic appeal, making it a convenient yet peaceful place to live.
