Our Tents

Our canvas safari-style tents have been thoughtfully placed amongst the eucalyptus and paperbarks, built above the ground to give privacy and to capture the sea breeze.

  • ☀️Lovely warm and sunny weather for the start of the school holidays.. the water is still great for swimming! But note some beaches including Hyams (this was taken two weeks ago 📷 thx @lolajarrige_ ) are experiencing the unique and natural phenomenon of seaweed banks after last week’s storms. Luckily there are PLENTY of other white sand beaches to explore! #jervisbay #glampingnotcamping #paperbarkcamp
  • 🐝🐝🐝 Exciting day yesterday as we welcomed 100,000 bees across 4 hives to their new neighbourhood here amongst the gum trees and paperbarks. This is our second attempt.. a few years ago we tried but seemed they preferred it elsewhere .. it was in a very dry period so perhaps not enough to keep them here.. hoping that they will find enough to feed on this time and will stay a while, and to eventually provide us with Woollamia honey! 🍯
  • ☀️Back to sunny autumn skies next week! Not too late to get a last minute escape into nature and some sublime underwater exploring! The water is still warm, and beautifully clear.. perfect for getting up close to the local sea puppies , or looking for dolphins on a sea kayak tour , such a  great adventure for older kids this school holidays. 🐬🐋 🦭💚 #visitshoalhaven #visithuskisson #jervisbay #unspoilt #visitnsw
  • As the evenings get a bit cooler, time to fire up the very clever and sustainable wood pellet heater from @piazzetta.com.au in our King Deluxe safari tent, ‘King Parrot’. It uses compacted recycled wood biomass and has lower emissions compared to firewood .. literally a handful of pellets warms this tent for hours!
