Liked having the local wildlife on our step. A wombat tried to join us inside. We saw a pademelon and currawong. So curious. Dined up the road at the Tavern. We went early and avoided the rush. Was nice to have a log fire as the temperature went right down.

The Bushmans Hut was perfect for our stay in Cradle Mountain. The cabin is compact, cosy and the pot belly stove kept the place nice and warm. It’s great for 2 people and has everything you need to cook your own food. Wildlife visited us right on our doorstep. The property is located just across from the visitor center where you can catch the shuttle bus to the National Park. Would stay there again.

Excellent communication with the cottage staff. We got to check in a bit earlier. Very friendly staff and cozy cottage. It has everything we need for a two night stay. Just step away from the visitor center, yet we were like in the wildness with wombat and wallaby and birds visiting. Excellent value for the price.

A very pleasant stay for our family. The team of staff here is a group of wonderful people. And we had the great experience of coming so close with Charli, the “resident wombat” here & also a few pademelons right infront of our cottage. This will be our accomodation again should we be travelling back here to the Cradle Mountains in future.

Everything we needed. Great to arrive to the fire going for us. Beds comfortable, very clean cabin and great communication before arriving. 2 night stay was good for us. Right across the road was the shuttle bus to Dove lake. We enjoyed a pizza at Peppers for lunch and then we went to Cradle Mt Hotel for dinner. Great food.

Cradle Highlander cabins are truly breathtaking!! As soon as you drive into the driveway, it feels like a magical place. The staff were super lovely and very helpful, the cabin we stayed in was just gorgeous and I was genuinely sad to leave. The fire was lit, heaters in the bedrooms were on on our arrival and the setting was cosy and warm. I cannot recommend staying here any more highly and I look forward to coming back another time for a longer stay!

A perfect stay in paradise!
Highlanders (Woodsmoke cabin) was perfect! It is a credit to the cleaners how spotlessly clean the cabins are always presented. The pot belly fire was wonderful and the cabin was cosy, warm and comfortable. The Cradle Mountain National Park is amazing and using the bus shuttle into the National Park was easy. $15 pp for 3 days and it’s a 5 - 8 min walk from Highlanders. We did so many beautiful walks. It doesn’t matter if is sunny, raining, or snowing this is a very special part of the world and we never get tired of visiting paradise! Thank you Rachael and team for making our stay so perfect in every way. We were lucky enough again to have native visitors to our cabin porch. Many birds - yellow parrot, black currawongs, a wallaby and a pademelon. Cheers Suzanne and George
