Guests will find a stovetop, a refrigerator, kitchenware and a toaster in the well-equipped kitchenette. The tent also has a barbecue. The tent offers a tea and coffee maker, a seating area, a terrace with mountain views as well as a shared bathroom featuring a shower. The unit offers 1 bed. We stayed in Eglington Valley camp for three nights, which was great! Away from the buzz in Te Anau, and a relatively short driving distance to Milford Sound. The rooms are nice and cosy, and the kitchen includes the necessities needed.

At the luxury tent, units are equipped with a outdoor furniture. Each unit has a shared bathroom with a shower. At the luxury tent, all units include bed linen and towels. Honestly, i love the place. Its a revamp of old shepherding stations and i love how the current owners did up the place. Its very modern and cozy. Strong wifi actually. We visited in June, beginning of winter. The cabins: 1. We had our own cabins. Loved how the owners turned up the warmers in the cabin so the place was nice and toasty. The 2 twin beds, loved that they each had their own electric beddings.. 2. The cabin we had, had a tv and 2 armchairs. We enjoyed every episode of the nanny reruns we've watched there. Lol. 3. Cozy place. Very homey. We loved it. The Kitchen and Bathroom!: 1. This is in a separate cabin.. 2. Because we were the only guests during that period, it felt like we had the whole space to ourselves which was awesome. (But there's only 2 residence cabins so it shouldnt be a squeeze either.. not too sure if the other cabins on the estate uses the same space).. 3. The kitchen's very well equipped! It even has a portable grilling machine. Loved it. The usual drills of washing and cleaning up after yourself. #lovethat 4. The bathroom, now thats the VIP. Huge space, it had a wet and dry 'corner'.. big space to bathe, good supply of hot water.. electric heaters and clothes warmers. Very thoughtful of the owners. 5. We made sure to turn off every light and heating to conserve energy every night. The main morale of every bnb story is to take care of the place like u would your own home. The space: 1. The 2 to 3 nights we were there, super cloudy else it would have been an excellent place to view the southern lights cuz the cabins faces south. 2. U can star-gaze above as well.. i had a good 1 - 2 hrs of clear skies. Lol. 3. The owners stay nearby. Very friendly people! They have 3 dogs, very friendly as well. 4. The carpark is just below. Very close by, very convenient. 5. Huge space to walk around... we had a good walk to see the pet deers and sheeps. :) love it.
