Creature comforts
Enjoy the comforts of home—including flush toilets, showers, and a kitchen.
Reconnect with nature at this unforgettable escape on picturesque Kangaroo Island. Only 15 minutes from the ferry terminal but a million miles from reality -deep in the native pine forest! We truly offer an island experience like no other! With privacy & complete immersion in the landscape you still have access to amenities such as steam sauna, hot tub, inside bathroom & fully equipped kitchen at the main cabin. Our tent comfortably sleeps 3 singles or easily converts to a luxurious double with high quality bedding & a double hammock under the stars. A sanctuary for couple's to retreat... or to create your own adventure! The bell tent is in a secluded patch of pine forest approximately 80 metres away from the main living cabins, which are hired out to other guests. Private and secluded but close to creature comforts if needed! A 6-seater traditional barrel sauna, ice bath, hot tub, studio and outdoor shower are situated on the outskirts of the cabins; that you can book private exclusive time to use for extra cost. The bell tent contains beds, sitting areas, outdoor lounging space and a hammock. A flushing electric porta-loo is right outside. You have your own BBQ and fire pit (seasonal) and access to the shared facilities at the main kitchen and full bathroom. The main living cabin is cosy and comfortable with an A/C for hot summer days and a roaring pot-belly for winter with open plan living area including a dining table and cosy lounge with TV and internet. The kitchen is modern and has a dishwasher, microwave and gas stove. When you hire the tent you have access to this if needed. The forest cocoons the cabins, there is a veggie garden for guests to access. Island Beach is a 3 minute drive away and Penneshaw is close enough to pop in for a coffee or pub meal. Retreat into nature or use our tent as a base for your Island adventures!With only 1 tent on offer you have secluded privacy immersed in the forest, with your own cooking and lounging area under the stars. Enjoy!
