We loved Cradle Forrest Inn - it is not that close to any town and it is in the middle of the forest but we loved that - there is a restaurant at the Inn which we ate Breakfast and dinner at and it was great - Pizza and hamburger type menu but the pizzas are wood fired and really good and too big to get through. The rooms are quaint and in the forrest - bed was great - there is a small kitchen and a sitting area - and it is all just 30 kms or so from the Cradle Mountain national park - we would stay here rather than in the park. there is parking outside the room and a little balcony outside the room which looks out into the wilderness - we would have no hesitation in coming back - in fact we hope to to do some walking in the National Park.
