When we look for short breaks, we want to offer you something different, something that you can’t get anywhere else. The luxury geodesic domes you stay in on this short break are so distinctive that you will always remember your stay in them. 

With a completely opulent look and feel to them, you will be able to relax and feel so entirely close to nature. Sit in your outdoor bath, a glass of wine in hand and stare out at the distant mountains. Sit by the firepit, polishing off that free bottle of wine before retiring to the night to lie and stare straight up at a sky packed with stars. Total bliss!

We also want to make sure that when you take a short trip, you get a bit of in-depth understanding for the region you are visiting and this is why we have your outstanding hosts taking you out on a local time tasting in the Tamar Valley. You will meet the people who live and work here, chat about their lives and their wines and explore all the hidden gems of this enchanting region. 

Your accommodation for the weekend is situated on the Swinging Gate Vineyard in Sidmouth, Tamar Valley. At the airport, you will collect your pre-paid hire car for the trip. A two and a half-hour drive through the glorious scenery of Tasmania will bring you right to your own private cellar door.

Set in and amongst the vineyards each private dome has a full ensuite, it's glamping in true luxury style with interiors inspired by exciting local designers. With comfy king-size bed with quality cotton sheets, quilts and soft furnishings, the interiors perfectly complement the beautiful natural surrounds.
