Glamping: “a form of camping involving accommodation and facilities more luxurious than those associated with traditional camping<\/em>“.\u00a0 After travelling 35hrs from London to New Zealand the day before we were wisked away for a quick break at Kawakawa Station on the Palliser Cape in the South Wairarapa.\u00a0 We had wanted a couple of days away from the hustle and bustle of city life and luckily enough for us, my sister had organised a bit of a surprise.\u00a0 Arriving into Wellington to a howling southerly was nothing new, but it was supposed to be summer! The weather in the Wairarapa wasn’t any better and we thought we were in for a couple of wet days, the first thing we did was light the wood burner in the tent to warms things up.\u00a0 It pretty much rained all night but by the morning it had cleared and the sun came out.\u00a0 Below are a few photos of the ‘glamping’ and our visit to Cape Palliser and here is a link to the glamping website<\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n
