Mount Burrell

Our final stop of the day, and home for the night, was Silk Pavilions, nestled between about 5 National Parks. Greeted by our super-friendly host Steve, we were made so welcome from the moment we arrived. Before Steve threw our stuff in the tractor and out to our safari tent, he wanted to show us his land...and rounding the front of his house we came across beautifully kept grounds abundant with kangaroos! So exciting! Including a mum and baby 😊

On walking to our tent, our accomodation was no less disappointing. A huge safari tent, fitted out with a sheltered but outdoor shower, double bed and a barbecue on the veranda. We were even graced with a bottle of sparkling wine for staying with them. We set to work on the barbecue and as the sun decended off the bush and the kangaroos hopped around our tent, we enjoyed kebabs and burgers. After dark, the temperature dropped pretty rapidly...but no worries - out bed had electric blankets!! An unbelievable stop at the Silk Pavilions.Read more
