We stayed here for 2 nights, with our young daughters. There’s a lot to love about this place. The views are spectacular. The girls loved waking up to see the donkeys and other animals in the paddock. We had a nest of baby birds in the carport and tiny wallabies (we think??) were visiting! It was a great base to Cradle Mountain. The girls also loved playing table tennis and the pool table, in the treehouse and riding on the bikes. It gave us as parents lots more quiet time too 😊
The reasons why I sadly can’t give it 5stars is that it just all looks like it hasn’t seen much love in recent years. It’s like you can see how amazing this place once was, but it’s well past it’s glory days and needs attention. The bikes and games room are great, but it smells mouldy and so many toys and bikes are broken or rusted away. The tree house looks forgotten. Our shower head was broken so we cldnt shower properly. We notified reception and whilst we appreciate it cldnt be fixed that day (Xmas break) it looked like it had been ‘fixed’ before but just doesn’t work; it needs to be replaced. The washing machine also had issues.
Yet all in all I still loved it, for the stunningly beautiful views, both from inside the house as well as the veranda and outdoor areas, for the animals and for the space kids have to run around. Thanks so much for having us.
