Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają

  • The 'Platter Bar' and chef-prepared gourmet frozen meals
  • Stunning communal kitchen and fire pit atmosphere
  • Immaculately designed 'glamping' aesthetic that feels high-end

Szybki przegląd: It's a glorified campsite with incredible food and comfy beds, but you're still sharing a toilet block with strangers.

Przejrzane przez @larisajayne: I stayed here for a weekend disconnect and it was incredible. The tent felt like a high-end hotel room, but stepping outside to the fire pit under the stars was the real highlight. The communal kitchen is actually super social and fun to cook in.

FAQ i ukryte porady

Wszystko, co naprawdę chcesz wiedzieć, zanim zarezerwujesz.

Is there really no private bathroom?

Correct. There are 4 showers and 4 toilets in a high-end, unisex communal block. They are private individual cubicles, but you have to walk outside to get there.

Is there food on site?

Yes, but it's unique. There's a 'Platter Bar' and a freezer full of gourmet meals prepared by owner/chef Tom Dicker that you heat up yourself.

Is it cold in the tents?

It can be, but every tent has a heater, electric blankets, and hot water bottles. Most guests report being toasty warm even in winter.

Can I charge my phone in the tent?

Yes, tents have power points for charging devices.

Is it suitable for kids?

Yes, families love the Bunk House and the safe, enclosed bush setting, but quiet hours are strictly enforced.

How far is the beach?

It's about a 2-minute drive or a 25-minute walk to Binalong Bay beach. It is not beachfront.

Porady dla wtajemniczonych

  • ✨

    Pre-order the breakfast ($25pp)—it's widely considered restaurant-quality and better than what you'll find in town.

  • ✨

    Grab fresh oysters from 'Lease 65' down the road and eat them by the fire pit.

  • ✨

    The communal kitchen has excellent knives and cookware, so you can actually cook a real meal if you bring groceries.

5 rzeczy, które warto wiedzieć przed wyjazdem

  • 💡The 'sluggish' wifi is basically non-existent in some tents; you have to go to the kitchen to get a signal.

  • 💡You might wake up to a wallaby staring at you through the tent flap.

  • 💡The showers have watering buckets to collect excess water for the garden (eco-conscious).

  • 💡There is no daily housekeeping for the tents during your stay unless requested.

  • 💡The 'King Room' is just a bedroom in a building; it lacks the charm of the tents but has the same shared bathroom drawback.
