We managed to see the platypus both nights - magical. The Cabin must have been the cleanest I have been in and we have stayed in cabins for over 10 years now , travelling... More

“What a view and great price”

Reviewed 27 February 2013

The view from the cabin is just spectacular and the price is very reasonable especially in the off season which is now. Self contained but close to pub, shop and other eateries. A great place to relax and chill.

Hi, Thank you for your kind review and photos. The cabins are reasonably priced with great deals on offer during the months of February & November. Once again, thank you for your review. Regards, Debbie More

We spent one night in Cabin A at the start of our honeymoon roadtrip of the East Coast and it was a perfect stay. The cabin had everything we needed and was lovely and clean and spacious enough for the two of us for the one night. It was great to have air con in both the living room and... More

Stayed here for one night for a little weekend getway, and were very happy with our choice of accomodation. The cabins are reasonably new, spotlessly clean and well equiped to self-cater. Ofcourse the view is amazing, and the fireflies at night were a bonus! my only slight negative was the cabin did have a bit of a musty smell, but... More

Hi, Thank you for your review. All cabins are regularly aired, weather permitting. However, I did notice that one cabin had a slight musky smell, which I think was caused from moisture entering when windows were left open from a previous guest. Steps have been taken to remedy this. Sorry if the email info was a little misleading. A shared... More

The cabins have all the basics you need (but don't expect broadband and loads of TV channels) and the local is area is scenic, peaceful and relaxing. We particularly enjoyed Broken River (Platypus viewing) and the Finch Hatton Gorge which has some... More
