Big cabin, very clean - loved it

We loved our stay here. The cabin is big with really comfortable beds. Is about 25-30mins from Cradle Mountain but there is not a lot of options around. Quite a nice setting too

A bit far from Cradle Mountain, but it has plenty of space for a 4-people family. A big bath is really good for people who trekked a lot to recover. A fire place is also nice to warm in the cold night.

Nice cottage but….

The cottage is very pleasant and comfortable but lacks the final touches that make for a great stay. Knives were blunt, outside furniture poor, no seive just the little things that can irritate

A great way to rest and reset from everyday hustle

As the property is located within the mountains there is very little to no phone reception or internet. It is a great way to step away from the phones and back into nature to rest and reset from everyday hustle. The property was very clean, very well maintained and very homely. All amenities were provided just like a hotel would. It is a fair drive to get to resturants and cafes so i would suggest stocking up on food at the grocery store before arrving at the property. The property owener did mention this prior to us arriving that day. Overall it was a beautiful place to stay

Gateway to Cradle Mountain

This cabin was a great base for our family to explore Cradle Mountain and it had everything we needed. The fire made the main room very cosy (although it didn’t really heat the rest of the cabin, but in April it wasn’t really a problem). The bathroom seemed fairly new but it wasn’t particularly well designed and didn’t have very good ventilation. The shower took ages to get to the right temp and water sprayed all over the bathroom. But these were minor things and generally we were happy with it.
