Linen not provided. Doona and pillows only provided. Doona covers, sheets, pillow cases and tea towels needed.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a "glamping" experience so insects and nature is a part of the experience. The tents are set on a concrete slab which is regularly sprayed however insects will still be around as the tents are set in the middle of the paddock so please be mindful of this.
This property uses Solar Power (not connected to the grid) so please be aware of energy usage. All lights and general appliances are low energy and remain suitable for use over an extended sunless/cloudy period. If you drain the solar you will lose power and hot water.
Both domes have aircon. The air-con cannot be left on. They were installed so if you have been out exploring all day and return to find a very hot or cold dome it gives you the ability to modify the temperature quickly. Once the dome has been cooled down or heated up (in our experience this takes approximately 10-15 mins) you can switch it off and use the fans provided if the evening is warm. If you leave the aircon continually running or forget to turn it off and go out you will lose power and the power will not return until the solar has had a chance to recharge the next day.
There are 2 portable fans inside the domes and a fan for outdoor use for hot days. To reduce the impact on hot days the domes have rooftop curtains that should remain closed along with the front window curtains to keep the tents cooler.
Guests have access to the entire 120 acre property. There is a gate for access to the paddocks beyond the dome fencing. The gate needs to be closed immediately after entering and exiting to prevent cows entering the dome area and causing damage or exiting onto the main road.
You can stroll along the road until you reach the bushland on the far end of the property. We do not recommend walking through long grass on the property without protective footwear as snakes are known to live in the hinterlands region.
Please be aware the driveway to the domes is not sealed. It is a gravel driveway.
In the rain it may be slippery. Parking at the top of the property is recommended for cars that are not suitable for gravel inclines.Our two eco-friendly domes sit on a 120 acre property providing a unique experience with a sense of space and privacy that helps you disengage from the everyday.

This property uses Solar Power so please be aware of energy usage. All lights and general appliances are low energy and remain suitable for use over an extended sunless/cloudy period.
During the summer period, it can get quite hot in the region. We have recently installed air conditioning units in each tent. These are able to be used at low power for (**10-15 minutes only at a time**) on hot days to keep the tents cool. They cool down the domes very quickly and then can be turned off and remain cold. If you leave them on they will drian the solar power and leave you with no power and lights until they charge the next day.
There are also 2 portable fans that are suitable for overnight use. To reduce the impact on hot days the domes have rooftop curtains that should remain closed along with the front window curtains to keep the tents cooler.
Guests have access to the entire 120 acre property. There are fences for access to the paddocks beyond the dome fencing. These need to be closed immediately after going through each time to prevent stray cows entering the dome tent area and the main road.
If the creek is low enough to cross there is a rainforest on the far end of the property. We do not recommend walking through long grass on the property without protective footwear as snakes are known to live in the hinterlands region.
Please be aware the driveway to the domes is gravel not sealed so drive carefully as in the rain it can be quite slippery. Parking at the top of the property is recommended for cars that are not suitable for gravel inclines.
