Location, and suitability for walkers was excellent. We also appreciated the privacy
It was too hot! We wanted some heating but the lowest setting was too hot - even at the end of July. In the end we switched it off and the place remained warm for several hours.

Warm and comfortable even though it was freezing cold outside.
The floor had a few squeaks to it, more noticeable during nighttime when everyone was asleep.

We had a very pleasant three-night stay. The accomoodation is very near to the cradle mountain visitors center and devils@cradle. There was also sufficient information preparing us for our stay here. Staff is also very friendly and approachable. They atrended to our needs quickly.
There was weak wifi but thankfully there was still good reception from optus and telstra. We used our personal hotspot whenever we needed to use the laptop.

Die Lage ist perfekt als Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen im Nationalpark. Die Hütte ist gemütlich und geräumig, man hat alles was man braucht (Nahrungsmittel sind selbst mitzubringen). Da die meisten Tiere am Morgen oder in der Dämmerung erscheinen, können wir einen Aufenthalt hier nun jedem empfehlen.

Perfect location, beautiful surroundings. It was within walking distance of the Visitor Information Centre and the shuttle bus that takes you to Dove Lake and various other stops along the way.
Lovely, helpful hosts. The heater to our cabin was turned on, making our arrival in more welcoming.

We had a cosy cottage surrounded by trees and bushes. The wood fire came with easy, helpful instructions and kept the cottage warm. The kitchen was well equipped for self catering. It was in easy walking distance of the shuttle bus for Cradle Mountain, which was next to the visitors centre. We had a warm welcome on check in. We will stay there again whenever we visit the area.

Location perfect, short walk from visitor centre, but really quiet, hidden amongst the trees.
Downstairs was lovely. Upstairs could have been improved for me with a chair, or somewhere to put things other than bed or floor.

Loved this cabin hidden in the bush! It was perfect for our two night stay. My husband enjoyed building the fire. Very cosy and snuggly. Has everything you need for self catering. Host checked if we needed more firewood on our second day - which was lovely.

Our family of three absolutely loved our stay at the Cradle Mountain Highlanders. It was our favourite accommodation whilst in Tassie. It was very clean and well appointed. Excellent cooking facilities. The beds were super comfortable. The cabins are spaced well appart with trees all around with wildlife literally at your doorstep. It was such a peaceful, private place to stay, so quiet. We would definitely stay here again.
