The Crimson Rosella’s are forced to scatter as a pair of Rainbow Lorikeets decide it’s their time to feed. They descend upon the bird feeder we’ve packed with seeds, sending the two Rosella’s into a fast retreat. A sudden burst of vivid plumage and squawking fills the air. The Lorikeets have first pickings here. They have their run of the rainforest and make sure every other bird knows it too.

Over the past few years, Mike and I have been fortunate enough to experience our fair share of sensational accommodation. Think plush penthouse suites in Las Vegas where the range of in room amenities is so excessive it will fulfill every wildest dream. Or an intimate boutique loft apartment in New York. Think a decadent hotel built atop ancient Incan ruins in Peru. We recently also stayed in a room which came with a zoo! Glamping in Australia

Suffice to say, we have slept around quite extensively when it comes to luxury rooms. And it as such takes something truly exceptional to wow us to our core. Who knew it would be our first experience glamping, in the Australian bush no less, which would leave us both in absolute awe.

Sleek and Romantic Cabins in an Unspoiled Forest on the Southern Coast of Australia

Tucked away among 100 acres of natural forest along Australia’s South East coast, and located just over 1km from the sparkling waters of the Pacific Ocean lies sleek and romantic cabins in an unspoiled forest setting.

This part of Australia is known as the “Eurobodalla Nature Coast” due to its natural environment and prolific wildlife, and glampers are invited to come and reconnect with that special someone in pure, private bliss.

Encompassed completely by a lush, green forest, these detailed and stylish accommodations are far from any noise and distractions, and this intimate, natural setting blended with spacious and ultra modern cabins allows for the ultimate romantic escape. This is Australian glamping at it’s best.

There are five cabins total here, each located at least 100 meters apart, and each separated by a screen of natural forest. The privacy here is unparalleled. Privacy is what this property is all about, and your cabin comes in a secluded setting, offering you your own private section of the Australian bush. Each cabin has its own vehicle access, and there is ample space to park.

The perks of seclusion? Floor to ceiling windows in each room allow you to enjoy a spa in total privacy, overlooking the natural bushland. Sip on champagne in the hot tub while watching as kookaburras and crimson Rosella’s come out to play. Where is the best glamping in Australia?

Enjoy the luxury of an outdoor shower knowing you won’t be able to see any neighbouring guests. Quiet forest strolls will help you recharge your batteries, while a late-night log fire in the cabin, along with some chocolate and champagne, tops off the perfect romantic night.

Luxury Accommodation

When you think of a cabin in the woods, “rustic” is one word which comes to mind. Though these “bowers” are anything but.

Each cabin has a king-sized bed, a 2 person spa, and a double shower with piped music to the spa room. Though between the outdoor shower and the spa, we didn’t have the chance to take advantage of the shower indoors. There is a flat-screen TV, DVD player, and W-Fi access. Each cabin also includes a full-sized washing machine and clothes dryer, as well as air conditioning and ceiling fans. Reviews of glamping sites in Australia

There is a genuine wood fireplace, a fully self contained kitchen, and a private deck complete with a barbecue grill meaning guests can be completely self-sufficient if they choose. Recline on your own private deck with a glass of wine over a sumptuous BBQ amongst the eucalypt forest. Pull out the bird seed from inside if you feel like inviting a few guests to join you. Each Bower is set up with a bird feeder too. Australian glamping reviews Best Aus glamping

The accommodation is ultra luxurious, but there’s a very relaxed atmosphere, so that you can totally unwind from the stresses of modern life. Soft jazz was playing on arrival as we unlocked the door, and the aroma of candles and scented soap washed through the air. They truly captured tranquility here.

 

Though luxurious extra touches and attention to every detail are what land the property the title of the most sensational accommodation of which we have ever stayed. The owners, Mark and Sue, have spared no expense in decking out these “cabins in the woods”, and it absolutely shows. Theses sleek and romantic cabins have everything you could wish for from a luxury stay.

Relax in the spa at night and switch on the outdoor lighting to highlight the surrounding forest. Bathrobes, slippers and eye masks are provided to make your nights as restful as possible. Open the blinds to bring nature into your bedroom, or close them if you prefer privacy from the surrounding wildlife.

Heated towel racks, candles, an impressive amount of literature on local adventure and sight seeing options, and even a modest selection of novels and magazines; they have gone above and beyond to cater to everything you could possibly think to need. Where to glamp in Australia

Guests are welcomed with a complimentary breakfast hamper on arrival, which includes all of the best ingredients for a scrumptious breakfast. Bacon, tomatoes, sausages, fresh fruit, a selection of juices, croissants and bread. There are gourmet meal and picnic hamper options available too; pre-order before arrival and you will show up to a fridge fully stocked.

For those who can drag themselves away from their luxury cabin, rolling hills, native animals and nearby national parks and state forests are just waiting to be explored. It won’t take long to find your inner adventurer here.

There are over six miles of walking trails through the surrounding forest, and Illawong Nature Reserve leads hikers past native flora and fauna, and eventually to North Broulee Beach. (Broulee village is flanked by 2 excellent surfing beaches separated by Broulee Island, which is a dedicated nature reserve to preserve its fauna, flora and the remnants of the original Broulee settlement.) Are there good glamping sites in Australia?

Once at the beach, there are a great number of activities and attractions at your disposal. Sea-kayaking, bushwalking, and horseback riding are all within reach, as well as the popular tourist draws of the Murramarang National Park , Deua National Park, and Montague Island. Glamping in Australia

Mark and Sue can arrange for luxury excursions, like surfing and yoga retreats, or mountain biking and kayak tours. The property also organizes whale watching trips on either a charter boat or kayak, as well as visits to local art galleries and expeditions. Glamping in New South Wales
