The cabin was spotless and the location provided everything we needed to explore Cradle Mountain and surrounds. The nightly visits by Pademelons was an added bonus.

We had the Cradle Cabin. This one is tough for me to review as it’s not what I’m used to while visiting Australia. It’s a rustic cabin, with cabin like feel, it was cozy, clean, beds were comfortable and sheets and comforter were fresh linens. Bathroom is modern but the rest of the cabin is dated.Nothing is around here so you will need to drive 25 min. for a restaurant.

We stayed here overnight before we started the overland track. It was more affordable than staying up right outside the national park but still only a short drive away. The room was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. Although I didnt get to try it out, the spa in the room looks like it would be wonderful. I'd stay here again.

Lovely location, tranquil and well maintained property. Not too far drive to Cradle Mountain and all the great walks in the area. Well stocked for cooking your breakfast (eggs, bacon, tomato, bread for toasting, yum!) Bring your own provisions for cooking dinner as the villa provides pretty well all utensils needed.

The location was great near to cradle mountain and caves. Local wildlife was also good. The cottage needs a bit more light in the kitchen, there is only one light for kitchen dining and living area. One light in the kitchen area would help with meal preparation and dishwashing.

This bush accommodation has all you need for your stay. It’s quiet and 30 minutes drive from any sort of shop. The property is in partly cleared forest and the small wallabies and rabbits are very close in the twilight times.

Property was very private & great for a relax. Kitchen was very well appointed although a few microwave dishes would have made cooking dinner a bit easier. Cottage does require a bit of love in regards to a paint & deep clean.
