Tims Wagon (aka the Gypsy hut/wagon) was an adventure. It was cozy, functional, very resourceful, and the bed was comfortable. The outdoor bath was like a spa. The fridge however would benefit with some additional ice packs on a hot day.

Unique accommodation in a sheep farm by a river and off the grid but with good facilities. Outdoor hot bath for dark sky stargazing ideal.

I think one dining option within 30 minutes which is okay as most would use community kitchen anyway. Great for backpackers with laundry, clothes lines, showers.

Hi! Thanks so much for your hospitality, we enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately we left behind a toiletry bag. We plan on coming by tomorrow to pick it up. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. Thanks again for a wonderful stay. See you tomorrow.

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I guess $80 foesnt buy much these days but I feel this was over priced. Especially considering the locatoon and facilities. Things were clean but very basic.Hard to understand locating it beside the main highway. Signage for access to the river would have been nice....but it was clear that little effort has been made here to do much besides make money off tourists.

Fun accommodation
Stayed in the wagon which was novel. Quiet and clean and away from the traffic. Comfy beds and all essential amenities provided. We used the shower blocks at main site a few minutes away but there is a bath if you wanted one. Bring mossie spray.
