Why we’d goA Shoreham tent stay for couples or small groups who want the lake setting and are comfortable with shared camp facilities.
Iluka offers styled bell tents for two with a queen bed, linen and towels. Extra single beds can be added for family or friends. The tents are unpowered; the shared camp kitchen and bathrooms have power. Bring a head torch for the walk back to your tent.
The lake and wetlands are part of the 36-acre setting. The operator also offers group lodges and whole-property bookings as separate arrangements, so a tent booking does not mean exclusive use of the grounds. Check the tent configuration, availability and optional activities directly before planning your stay.
Worth knowing
If you only do one thing
