Weekend Trip to Nature Immersed Cabin & Glamping

Exactly what we were looking for- a camping experience without the setup. Betty Boop delivered. Everything you need, nothing fancy but very nice. Bathroom is lovely, we enjoyed making a coffee in the morning, beautiful property, bathtub on the deck. Would recommend and we’d definitely go back.

Lovely spot with everything we needed, so close to Byron Bay but feels a world away. This place is a bit different and we loved it. The kids enjoyed an outdoor bath!

It was cold winter days but we enjoyed fire and hot bath so much ! Thanks to a little heater inside and electric blanket, we could spend cosy nights. It was lovely and relaxing time in quiet forest. We have a little dog, we enjoyed a lot too. Recommend for a couple who want private gate way

Weekend Trip to Tuntable Creek Eco stay

Beautiful stay, the surroundings are magical, the truck itself is so well thought out & the attention to detail made us feel like we were in a mini hotel room! The outdoor bath is spectacular, even in the cold cold winter mornings that hot bath felt otherworldly ✨ (the shower is phenomenal too) The bed was warm (electric blanket helped) & even the extra bed downstairs was comfortable. (I ended up down there the second night as I’m 33 weeks pregnant & kept having to get up to use the loo, it’s a bit of a hike up to the top bed otherwise) The fire pit was great, we used the pizza oven too to cook which was a lovely touch! We didn’t have a pen to write in your guest book so can only apologise there’s no review in there. Overall it was a wonderful stay for our baby moon 🌙 Thank you Felicity for allowing us into your space!

Weekend Trip to Tuntable Creek Eco stay

Such a beautiful spot! We had a great stay, even though it rained for most of our time there. We still checked out Protestors and had a nice drive out to Nimbin. The bath was lovely and so was the visit from the neighbours dog…such a cutie. The bed is quite firm and tricky to get in and out of, but I wouldn’t let that stop you if you’re looking for a weekend away! Lots of thought and care has gone into the linens and kitchenware and it was an appreciated touch 😊

The perfect respite from the city, yet so close to the coast and the awesome offerings of Mullumbimby, Bangalow and surrounds. The accommodation offered everything we needed.
