There’s nothing quite like going off-grid and escaping the rat race. Indeed, nature often provides the best therapy. Glamping is the perfect alternative for those who aren’t particularly keen on setting up camps and sleeping in sleeping bags. It combines the thrill of being lost in nature with the comfort of luxury accommodation. Here are a few glamping spots we love. Whether your ideal outdoor getaway involves exploring gorgeous gardens, waking up to ocean views, or even glamping on a Melbourne CBD rooftop, there’s something for everyone on this list.
- Mirador Springs This is one of the most beautiful venues in Gippsland, and it’s magical and serene. Located high on the Strzelecki Ranges overlooking Mt. Baw Baw, you are immediately immersed in the tranquillity of Mother Nature. Stroll through 15 acres of botanical gardens and pathways. Slip into a luxurious freestanding bathtub in the jungle and perhaps sight some kookaburras and warbling magpies.
