Wonderful stay.
Norman, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Top class accommodation.

We stayed at the Saltbush Retreat for three nights in a slab hut and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. A lot of detail has gone into the presentation and comfort inside and out. It's position is handy to the Qantas Museum and the Stockman Hall of fame. Thank you to the management of Saltbush Retreat for making our trip to Longreach so memorable.

We stayed in one of the slab huts which was delightful with many touches harking back to pioneer days. It was comfortable and well spaced from neighbouring huts. I highly recommend this lovely resort.

Exceptional accomodation! We receied a free upgrade to the stable accomodation. Fully self contained with a Nespresso Coffee machine. Everything was spotlessly clean. Great to relax in the artisuan outdoor bath in the bush setting. Owners have done everything to make their guests stay memorable. A must stay in Longreach.
