A Bubble tent offers you the ultimate experience of nature in cosy comfort shielded from the elements and any annoying buzzing frenemies.
A visit to Mt John observatory at the start of a new moon phase, which coincided with a meteorite shower on a cloud-free-windless night set us on our fateful Bubbletent journey. Lake Tekapo in New Zealand turns out to be one of top three spots around the world for stargazing, thanks to a concentrated local effort from the locals to minimise light pollution. After our eyes adjusted fully to the dark we were just flabbergasted at the beauty of the cosmos and the wonderment of what lay overhead. The tour finished – with a kink in our neck – we were sent back to our roofed-accommodation, the cosmos part was over for the night but our quest to replicate that experience and remained ever since.
So here we are a few years later, where after battering our little city car in search of a spot that provides that wonderment not just by night but by day as well, we finally found this slice of splendour overlooking Capertee Valley, the widest canyon in the world and a mecca for birdwatchers, virtually right in front of our Sydney noses, smack bang in the middle of the Central Tablelands of NSW.
To be able to replicate… well dare we say it, IMPROVE on our Lake Takepo experience, is what we’re here for. Come and experience it for yourself, lay back, look above and let things fall into perspective. This is the place where you find your true north.
