Wondering what your
stay with us will look like?
As you arrive at your own private gate and drive down your own private gravel driveway……..your Glamping journey begins.
You’ll probably smell the freshly baked bread as you walk in – cooked by our bread-maker Linda.
A unique blend of outdoor adventure and luxury nestled in the countryside with rolling hills and sweeping mountain views.
Our tent has all the comforts of home while still being close to nature. A lush interior with carpet, heaters, electric blanket, bean bags, games galore.
THE TENT
We purchased the tent from Safari Tents. Our tent is a high-quality luxury tent. Cloths are breathable, water-repellent, and treated against moisture, suitable for winter glamping. The windows are made of three layers, consisting of a roll-up transparent and weather-resistant PVC, a mesh fabric reinforced with fibreglass and a roll-up canvas cover so top of the line in the tenting world.
We lost the fly of the tent in a weather event in 2022, the inside wasn’t damaged at all thankfully. It was actually a blessing in disguise as it turned out, as we have now put an iron roof on which will help to protect the tent in the long run.
The Chandelier is the feature of the tent and was the very first item I purchased so everything was designed around that.
We also have lots of little family bits and bobs spread out around the tent to give it that homely feeling.
relaxation time
Its a journey back to simpler times – with all the luxuries! A private deck, seating area, outdoor beanbags just relax and take in the views!! Wake up in the morning to the sound of the creek in all its glory – flowing, bubbling and gurgling past………..take a picnic down chill out or go feeling (catch & release)
Sit in the outdoor bath with a glass of wine, a beer or a cuppa tea and soak up those country views, rolling hills, our beautiful Mountain, surrounding trees and birds chirping.
Have the outdoor fire roaring, toast some marshmallows and star gaze on a clear night.
Do as much or as little………as YOU like.
If you can tear yourself away town is only a short distance away…but try and make sure you come prepared with food and drink…so you can just stay put and be at one with nature.
