The cabin was cosy and quiet. We enjoyed that it had a spa however the covers for some of the jets were missing and needed replacing. It was lovely to have wallabies visit while sitting on the balcony in the afternoon.

The room was a little dated, but clean and comfortably. Because there were very few options to by food or places to eat, or a stove top in the cabin, it would have been good to have a webber bbq outside the cabin to cook on. The communal BBQ the only option for cooking, and the cooking implements were dirty and needed to be cleaned.

It was lovely to arrive and find the lamps and heating on. The bed was also very comfortable. Only a 20 min drive from Cradle Mountain made it an ideal location for our stay.

Made Fawlty Towers look good. No reception facilities, had to walk about in the rain to find someone, James who was very good, to tell me what to do. Very isolated, as you would expect, but a below average meal supplied by the new owners, when they eventually turned up. Room was fine but woulen't stay again.
