loved the little touches that made the stay so enjoyable, such as the bird seed for the cockatoos in the morning and that the fire was set and the cottage was warm when we arrived, and there was additional logs and kindling set out for us. incredible spot, so peaceful and the night sky view of the stars was wonderful. Access was super easy too.

Perfect family getaway

10.0

I stayed here for one night with my two kids, 4 and 7. Our only regret is not having more time here! We were so impressed by the Eco Safari Tent! Staying during winter, I was concerned about the cold over night, but we were so cosy in the room with the electric blankets. We had space to comfortably hang out around the tent, and did plenty of exploring around the grounds, seeing plenty of amazing wildlife. We woke up to beautiful views and sounds of birds. The kitchenette had plenty for us, the bathroom was perfect. It was just about a 5-10 minutes drive from the town centre, but felt like a full escape. We absolutely plan to come back for a longer stay next time!

Cosy and relaxing for a chilly evening

10.0

Absolutely loved the woodfire. Was the cosy vibe we were chasing

This will seem random but the location of the bath tap is too far to reach without being in the spa itself
