Backpacker Budget Glamping Tipees

Tipees with shared facilities, near Huonville

Strong timber and canvas construction has allowed us to build on the edge of natural bushland without major clearings. This gives privacy and a close connection with the peaceful surroundings.

Inside, the tipees are very homely, fully carpeted with a sofa that converts to a double bed, coffee table, 12 volt solar electricity to run the lights and CD player, linen rack and a cosy wood fire.
 
Showers and toilets are at the modern campground amenities block less than one minute walk from your tipee. The campground also features our famous outdoor bath for two.

The shared camp kitchen is well equipped for self catering. Most items are supplied including cutlery, crockery, utensils and pots. The gas range has a full sized oven. Here is the place to enjoy the company of an open fire.

This award winning, carbon neutral (Green Globe accredited) retreat offering guests a choice of contemporary, self contained cabins, deluxe tipees and private campsites against an inspiring backdrop of Tasmanian native forest.
