If waking up to birdsong and being surrounded by spectacular scenery sounds like a honeymoon dream, then a glamping getaway could be your ideal way to welcome in married life.
Western Australia is blessed with some pretty stunning spots to pitch a tent, so no matter whether you’re after a beachside sojourn or an intimate forest escape – there is bound to be a ‘glamp site’ to appeal to you. An array of local glamping companies now offer stylish, full-service honeymoon packages that will appeal to even the most discerning traveller – no equipment or prior camping experience required!
You and your love can while away a few days in the wilderness, yet enjoy the luxury and comfort of a five-star hotel. From dreamy bohemian tents to onsite chefs, and spa baths to mood lighting – this is camping redefined.
