Cosy and comfortable

Gorgeous log cabin. Each cabin had its own specifically Australian name - ours was Wombat. The bed was a little hard for me but my husband loved it so just personal preference. Great kitchen set up and would have màde more use of it if we'd stayed longer. Very close to cradle mountain visitor centre and other places of interest in the area. Set up with everything you need to be comfortable for a longer stay. Lovely host on reception friendly and helpul information. Would definitely stay again if ever back this way.

This was by far our favourite stay whilst we were in Tasmania, we were welcomed by a lovely fireplace already setup for us which kept the room nice and cosy the entire time we were there. The cabins are so close to everything at Cradle Mountain. The cabin was so cosy with a lovely four poster bed, spa bath and full kitchen with basics. Will be recommending this place to everyone in the future
