Standard tent, Paperbark CampIt took over 10 years of steadfast patience for Irena and Jeremy Hutchings to achieve their vision of opening Australia's first luxury tented camp.  Paperbark Camp is eco-tourism at its best, being a low impact, niche-market venture that adheres to the principles of ecologically sustainable tourism. The objectives are  to promote the natural environment, to sustain the local ecology, to provide local and regional benefits and to successfully operate a low key, niche, eco-tourism facility.  Paperbark Camp is situated on the banks of Currambene Creek, a lovely bush-lined tidal estuary, close to Jervis Bay.
