Worst Choice

On the website I thought it was a Tee Pee in a farm paddock. But there are multiple accommodations on the farm so not as private as I thought! The Tee Pee was old & mouldy. The single beds were not suitable for adults. Too short. Even one bed base had mould on it. I lifted up my pillow to find a spider underneath. While styled with cowboy Indian theme it could of been done so much better. Rather tacky & tired. The bathroom was our life saver. It was lovely and only a few meters from the Tee Pee. This was not a restful stay. The Rooster crowed for 55minutes starting at 5.35am.

10/10 Excellent

Incredible Teepee Delight

My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this incredible teepee. You couldn't have a better experience than this. The natural surroundings add to the beauty. I will definitely be back to stay here. We love it!!!!
