Comfortable stay at Cradle Mountain

Just a short 20 minutes drive to the cradle mountain national park area, our room was very comfortable with a big bath tub to relax in. The heater was great during colder night. There is a cafe across the street offer good selection of food but we mostly enjoyed cooking on the back veranda with our camp cooktop and eating with beautiful forest view. We saw pademelons showing up everyday in the back yard and they were the cutest.

We really enjoyed our stay in the Platypus suite. The cabin was very spacious yet cozy at the same time. I particularly loved the cute fairy garden decorations and thought it was the sweetest thing on earth. The pademelons freely roaming about outside were also very cute.

We arrived to our lovely cabin, to find the bedside lamp and heater were on. The room was spotless .A beautiful large bed with lovely linen and covers. As an extra bonus there were heated throw blankets to use if necessary. The care taker and the cafe staff were very accommodating and friendly..Nothing was too much trouble. The only downside was that we had only booked one night Wish we could have stayed longer.

This place is the perfect place for a quiet getaway. I stayed at 7 Pademelon’s Place and it was extremely comfortable. There is a lack of mobile reception there, but that is something that is clearly communicated by the owner. Definitely would recommend!
