What an amazing place to stay! Everything was set up so well, so thoughtful and we really felt at home. The little touches just made it. Lying in bed watching the milky way pass overhead was absolutely incredible! Such a fun thing to do! Highly recommend this unique place.

What an experience. Not only was Cathryn (host) so lovely, she really thought about every single detail to make you feel at home (robes, cocktail maker, small fridge, slippers, eye masks, the list goes on). As we stayed during winter there …

As we were travelling from QLD to SYD with no plans on where to stop. We had come across these bubbletents. To which was a lovely, relaxing change to the same old hotel/motel. Great way to be in each other's company and enjoy the peace & quiet. Comfy bed. To top it off you get to lay in bed look up & see the stars in the sky. Friendly owners, very welcoming & helpful.

A unique outdoor camping experience underneath glorious starry night skies
We spent two wonderful days and nights staying in the Thunderbolt Bubbletent at Mirmumiru near Tenterfield. It was a pleasant country road drive from the Tweed Coast. On first sight and with our host’s explanation of the site we were struck by the creativity and imagination that has gone into the development. The fire pit, the bbq plate, the stocked outdoor kitchen and the luxurious hot bath were all great but the ‘star’ of the stay is lying back and being amazed by the views of stunning night skies from the comfort of a cosy queen sized bed. Lots of places to visit and enjoy in the Tenterfield area.

A wonderful stay under the stars. A lovely way to detox from the fast-paced runnings of the city and enjoy some downtime in nature.
Johanna
Staying at Captain Thunderbolt bubbletent was such an amazing experience my husband and I will never forget. Such a beautiful place, so peaceful and relaxing, plus falling asleep looking at the stars and then waking up to blue sky from the bubble was something else! Great location.
Karley
Wow is an understatement! A bubble dream. Stars were breathtaking, we even got lucky enough to watch a storm from our bed. Big thank you for such a wonderful time we will definitely be back.
Jesse
Absolutely adored our time at Mirumiru, I would recommend it to anyone! Once in a lifetime experience (except for when we book it again, which I’m sure we will).

Thank you for the amazing experience. We both loved Mirumiru and Tenterfield. We had an amazing day yesterday exploring, starting with the most delicious breakfast and coffee at The Gallery Café and then onto Boonoo Boonoo Falls, Bald Rock and Mt McKenzie. Showering in the rain this morning was magical.
Karrie
Our host Cathryn made sure we were comfortable and gave us plenty of suggestions for things to do during our stay. Such a unique experience and will make time to head back!
Georgia
Wow! What an amazing property. Cathryn has thought of everything to make your stay super comfy & luxe. The bed, linen, electric blankets, pillows, toiletries, bath robes and all of the little extras were amazing. Even with cloud cover the whole time and heavy rain each night, we had an absolute blast. The town of Tenterfield and surrounding endless National Parks leave you wanting to stay for several more nights to have the time to see it all. We will be back for sure.

Mirumiru Bubbletent is an accommodation experience like no other. Cathryn, the host, has done such an incredible job creating a unique and beautiful accommodation offering in Tenterfield. Relaxing in the outdoor vintage bath with a cup of tea and a book, cooking dinner on the outdoor firepit while watching the sunset and sleeping in the bubbletent with an unobstructed view of the stars. The perfect place to base yourself when exploring the local National Parks and village. It's an experience i'll never forgot and I'd recommend.

Experience Accommodation
This was a magical stay. Cathryn thought of everything you would need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Tenterfield is cold but that is all part of the experience. The bubble tent was equipped with electric blankets, hot water bottles, OOdies, warm socks and hot hot water for your outdoor shower. The first night we were there we went to bed and thought the stars were incredible until the moon went down and the sky became even more amazing to look at. The seams in the tent roof disappear when the moon does and it is like you are floating in a spaceship. We lay for hours counting the shooting stars. Not only is the accommodation great but Tenterfield as a destination has so much to offer. The nearby National Parks were stunning with waterfalls and huge granite boulders. Tenterfield has some great places to eat and the history of the town itself is so interesting. We couldn't recommend this more. Treat yourself and go!

Wonderful experience in a beautiful town. This was something totally different but so enjoyable.
Wonderful experience in a beautiful town. This was something totally different but so enjoyable.
Mirumiru was exactly what you want in a high country escape. Amazing views of dramatic granite ridges, where you let the day become night. Nights where the stars pulsate and the temperature drops dramatically. Beautiful stands of Eucalypt behind your bubbletent where Maggies and Rosellas roost. You’ll lose count of the shooting stars you count from bed. Cathryn and Brad have done a stellar job of turning an overgrazed hobby farmer block into a haven for native animals. Can’t wait to see the saplings that they’ve planted grow into established trees. The tent and amenities themselves are top tier, with all the creature comforts you want from a glamping experience. Can’t recommend it enough!

The most wonderful stay!
Cathryn is the best host! she thinks of everything. We didn’t come very prepared for the cold but she had oodies and slippers and all things warm already set out for us. she is so accommodating and so lovely! My sister and I stayed in the Captain Moonlite bubble tent, we absolutely loved it! The view and this property is so beautiful. The bath tub on the deck was my favourite part, sitting in a hot tub with cold winds and the most amazing views. We will definitely be back here we adore this place!

I have never seen the night sky so clearly!
What a great stay! My partner and I visited early June and fell in love with the clamping experience. We stayed in the Thunderbolt Bubbletent for two nights and loved sitting by the fire pit at night. The hot chocolate, coffee and tea provided was very yummy and the cheese board lasted us for both nights of our stay. Have never used an eco-composting toilet before we visited, but we loved the sustainable off-grid design of the tent. So many gorgeous things to do in Tenterfield and the New England area as well - we sure got our walking boots on!

What the media are saying
Fall asleep while gazing at a starry constellation and wake up to a glorious sunrise without even having to leave the tent, or your bed.
A glamping haven with a difference.
With a name as cute as bubble tent, it won’t be hard to get the kids to go on this family getaway to the rolling New England region.
One of Australia’s most unique and family-friendly glamping locations. Far away from the city’s polluting lights, it’s possible to soak in the expansive Milky Way from your comfy bed in the bubbletent.
Mirumiru Bubbletent has thoughtfully created an off-grid glamping destination where guests can unwind and relax, knowing that their holiday is not costing the earth – but rather protecting it. The family farm offers two off-grid glamping sites in the stunning Tenterfield high country.
At this new bush escape, blissful luxury awaits. Named after 19th-century local bushrangers Captain Thunderbolt and Captain Moonlight, glamping bubbles come outfitted with a queen-sized bed, proper linens, an outdoor bath and a telescope gazing at the billion stars above. If you’ve got kids, they’ll love sleeping in the “glam swag”, in a mini bubble suspended between gumtrees.
Mirumiru Bubbletent – home to Australia’s first bubbletent in a tree – faces off with the panoramic beauty of Mount Mackenzie. Wallabies bound from paddock to paddock, merino sheep graze in neighbouring farmland, and there’s no one to see you slip into your vintage outdoor bathtub before the sky performs its celestial finale, showcased through the roof of your transparent tent.
A truly unique experience that’s not only beautiful on the outside, but has been sustainably designed to nurture what lies beneath, too.
Suspended between gum trees in New England high country, this tiny bubbletent is one of three new ways to sleep under the stars.
The transparent roof is the only thing that separates you from the soaring sky above at Mirumiru. Nestled in native bushland in New South Wales high country, this bubble tent is the perfect romantic getaway.
Nestled in acres of farmland, Mirumiru Bubbletent provides a magical place to unwind and recharge.
By night you can soak in a vintage outdoor tub before curling up in your designer-appointed Bubbletent to watch the stars rise up through the valley and confetti the night sky.
Camping just got very, very fancy.
If you are yet to sleep under the stars, this one is for you. A little unusual but undoubtedly stunning, the Bubble Tent is lined with a transparent roof so you can gaze up to the Milky Way uninterrupted all night long.
Blissful Bubbles. For those who want to unplug, the tents have transparent roofs, providing a 180-degree stargazing experience from the comfort of your queen-sized bed.
