What are some towns in Tasmania?

Stanley

Stanley Tasmania: At the western end of the north coast. An attractive fishing port established in 1826 by the Van Diemen's Land Company. In 1832 the company built the nearby Highfield House as its first headquarters. This historic little town, with its original cottages and other buildings, has been well preserved. It is dominated by The Nut, an unusual flat-topped circular headland 152 metres high, with a path and a chairlift to the summit. The town sits against a backdrop of beautiful countryside.

If you get to here you must go to Dismal Swamp and to the end of the road.
We stayed at the pub small room but great breakfast down the road and it opens early.
