Greg and Rachel Power walking together through the mossy forest at Mt Field
Mt Field National Park · Tasmania

Hi, we are Greg and Rachel Power

We are the family behind Mt Field Retreat, Waterfalls Cafe & Gallery and Van Diemen Designs

Since 2012 we knew we wanted to enhance the Mt Field experience. We grew our Gallery space to feature Tasmanian artists and creators. We grew our local team with a focus on training and growing together.

In 2023 we opened the first stage of our accommodation, Mt Field Retreat. In 2025 we added stage 2 which allows us to host boutique tours.

Van Diemen Designs has grown alongside these two businesses. The ability to design our own homewares and a passion to see a little piece of Tassie in every home.

There is always more in the planning so connect with us and follow the story.
