To ‘Tent’ or not to ‘Tent’ is a divider. Those who do, enjoy wood fired earthy pleasures of foraged food, fresh air and natural beauty. Others simply prefer their fluffy bathrobes and L’occitane toiletries.

With the launch of The WOODS at Four Seasons Hotel you can have your hotel slippers and eat at the campfire without spilling a drop of your De Sousa Grand Cru in the process.

Part theatre (Hamish from Bar H centre stage), marketplace (eye catching butchers block piled with sough dough, copper bowls of house churned butter and a vertical herb wall), bar (second level down) art gallery (white ‘Hair on cows hide’ wall cladding, ceiling by Wall Candy detailing recipes of Coffee Brittle and hand drawn pictures of vegetables) and a campfire (theatrical stone clad wood fire burning fueled by changing woods from Apple to Olive).

Graze over silky scallops exploding with citrus punch and a crunch of puffed rice, smoky hoods of grilled King Island calamari with luscious translucent cheek bacon and roasted hazelnuts (earth n turf in one mouthful), Wild fillet of grouper with a hairdo of sweet roasted peppers under blanket of wood grilled fennel. Don’t miss the almond tahini green beans or hassle back potatoes.

It’s the food which will set your taste buds alight, with veggies sourced from Anthia at Little Leura Farm in the Blue Mountains. This ain’t no teddy bear’s picnic, it’s a multi-sensory feast where you’ll have a rollickingly good time.
