There's glamping, and then there's the 56m² luxury tent at this sweeping country property, kitted out with king-size four-poster bed, ducted air-conditioning, fireplace, full kitchen, laundry, L'Occitane toiletries in the bathroom and an outdoor hot tub with views of bushland and star-drenched skies. The property also offers two stylish, self-contained studio-style villas, both with heavenly bedding, crackling fire, Netflix and outdoor hot tub.

Rates are cheaper on weekdays and for longer stays; for instance, a midweek, two-night villa stay is $360 per night. All rates include a breakfast hamper. The property is a 7km drive southeast of Stanthorpe.
