I booked a last-minute trip to get out of Sydney with my dog and stayed in the dome, it was such a cool and unique experience. The amenities were clean, well looked after, and everything felt thoughtfully set up. The shared hang-out areas were really lovely and made the stay even more enjoyable. I'll definitely be back.

Staying in the Dome at Riley's property was an absolute dream come true! Everything was spotless, and having access to the kitchen made the stay even more comfortable. A lovely surprise was meeting Ronnie, a beautiful and friendly horse who kept us company. Being surrounded by nature and wildlife was so good for the soul.

Meet Your Host

Riley - Founder of Unwind Escapes

Experiencing nature doesn't need to involve discomfort.

No sleeping on cold ground. No deflated air mattress. No hauling a car full of gear you only use once a year. Just you, the stars, a comfy bed, and air conditioning; all the luxuries of home embedded in nature.

That's the whole idea behind Unwind Escapes. We break down the barriers to nature, so that anyone can wake up to kangaroos on the oval and birdsong through the trees, without spending hundreds on camping equipment or sacrificing a single night of good sleep.

I built this place from the ground up... literally. It started in 2022 with pallets from Bunnings, a basic deck, and a single bell tent on a historic cricket ground in the Dooralong Valley. From there, thanks to the love and support of all our guests we built a Geodesic dome, a Safari Tent, and now are building our most luxurious accommodation yet! Every detail is added with care, every decision made with one question in mind: what would make a guest feel completely at home in the wild?

The land has its own story. Originally home to the Darkinyung people, this place has evolved in the modern world, first as a cricket ground where legends like Greg Chappell played, then an equestrian facility, and now a sanctuary for people who need to remember what it feels like to breathe.

This isn't a hotel. It's not a campsite. It's something in between, built by hand, for those who've always wanted to connect with nature; and just needed somewhere that made it easy.

Riley, Founder of Unwind Escapes
