Southport has the last fuel facilities in southern Tasmania, and is too small to support a supermarket, but if you're looking for peace and tranquility in a bushland/forest setting, and friendly, helpful locals, it's a great place to set up base. Visiting Hastings Caves and (warm) springs, and Cockle Creek, are not to be missed. We stayed at Southern Forest Accommodation, a self-contained cottage provided by a lovely couple who really care about hospitality. We were able to cook our own meals, and apparently the nearby hotel also offers meals, which we did not try, but otherwise the nearest restaurants would be in Dover.
