Conveniently situated just minutes from award-winning McLaren Vale cellar doors, shops, restaurants, cafes, walking and cycling trails, and art galleries. All of this, along with pristine coastline and beaches to explore, you can do as much or as little as you want!
Each tent is lit at night by battery operated candles, bedside lights, and even a chandelier! There is also a brighter lantern if you wish to read or play games, and a large torch.
We provide the basics, and more!

You have a large glamping site area and private bathroom amenities to yourselves, and only share any access roads with other glampers. Outside there is a private parking area, the shower toilet amenities, a large wooden table, a park bench, a firepit (during the Winter months). There is also an additional rubbish bin for convenience.
Our glamping setup is for 2 adults only, perfect for romantic couple’s getaways, or two friends wanting to share some quality time together.
There is a flushing portable toilet with handwashing facilities and small mirror, and a large shower area with a 20 litre solar camp shower.
The homestead is approximately 500 metres away and screened from view by the flower paddocks for your privacy.
*** No open fires permitted from 1 October to 31 April***
Guest Access
We would like our Glamping guests to truly enjoy the experience on the flower farm. The area around your tent, bathroom and car parking space has been prepared for you to enjoy.
The flower paddocks and other general paddocks are Private property and not accessible to guests. Please refrain from taking a stroll amongst the bushes and flowers as there are hazards such as irrigation lines, taps and not to mention the rabbit burrows and holes dotted around the property. You are on the property at entirely your own risk.
We also operate farm machinery across the other areas of the property as we are a working commercial flower farm.
Other details to note
Please note - please take care when walking around your glampsite as there are areas of uneven ground and rabbit holes! No manicured lawns or picket fences here!
No open fires (firepits) permitted from 01 October to 31 April.
Please note - there is no power or electricity to this site.
Please note - there is no running water to this site.
Strictly Adults ONLY.
Bugs and other unwanted guests! As our tents are in the heart of the flower paddocks and vineyards you will likely find some harmless insects sneaking into the tents from the vines; the main culprit is the tiny Portuguese millipede.
While we thoroughly clean before/after each guest, we want you to know that you're likely to see them during your stay.
These are totally harmless insects and can either be left alone (and they'll leave you alone) or you can use the insect spray we provide/pick them up in a tissue, or the dustpan and brush, and drop them in the waste bin, or outside.
This is a normal part of life for anyone living on property in McLaren Vale with lots of open indoor/outdoor space. We hope you'll appreciate it as part of an authentic, real experience!
To eliminate anything getting into the tent we strongly advise to keep all doors zipped up.
We live in the homestead on property (but out of sight!), and far enough away to ensure your privacy. Our property IS NOT the one as you enter the property at the top of the track.
We are happy to answer questions, offer local recommendations (some are already in our Welcome Pack for your information).
Although we are not always available in person, we are available by phone.
