LOVED it! From the moment we drove in last week I knew that the following two nights were going to be magical. The lodge itself houses a lovely al la carte restaurant and a tavern that offers great classic pub meals and live music on Wednesday evenings (courtesy of the local ranger!). The cabins are cosy and either have a wood fire or imitation wood gas heater. All of the staff are lovely amd the pademelons and wombats that frequent the grounds are happy for a chat too! Plenty of walks to do in the local area or spend some time in the spa for some pampering! Phone and internet coverage are non existent however you can purchase a code to access the wi-fi. read more

Cradle Mountain Lodge is set on the northern edge of the World Heritage listed Cradle Mountain/Lake St. Clair National Park in north western Tasmania. Cradle Mountain Lodge is an iconic, unique wilderness experience and is the closest you can be to the entrance of the spectacular World Heritage-listed Cradle Mountain-Lake St. Clair National Park. At Cradle Mountain Lodge, guest cabins are dotted amongst tree-lined ranges and overlook grassy folds. Wallabies and wombats pausing between mouthfuls of buttongrass and possums posing gracefully as they criss-cross timber boardwalks are some of the magical sights that await as you make your way along the well-lit trails and boardwalks. Your private timber cabin is set discreetly in the wilderness and each cabin offers soothing natural views whether it be of the Lodge Lake, the Pencil Pine River or into the surrounding native myrtle forests. The best way to appreciate the World Heritage Listed environment at Cradle Mountain is by taking a scenic walk. For guests of Cradle Mountain Lodge, it is not necessary to venture into the National Park to experience the best of Tasmania's wilderness, as we have a host of great walks with spectacular scenery that leave directly from the Lodge grounds. These walks are suitable for a wide range of fitness levels and weather conditions. Around the Lodge, there are more than 20 walking trails to suit every fitness level. Discover animal and plant varieties found nowhere else on earth. You can trek mountains, take to trails on horseback, mountain bike or learn to fly-fish - just some of the many activities on offer.

We spent two nights here as a part of our honeymoon trip in Tasmania. I love the ski lodge vibe of this place and trekking around to get from one building to another. They also had wine and chocolate waiting for us in our suite when we arrived to celebrate our honeymoon. I did have an extremely unfortunate experience here with another guest who was yelling racist terms at me in the common area, but the staff reacted very quickly and asked the man to leave after the hubby went to the front desk to let them know what was happening. They also apologized to me, which I didn't think they need to since it's not really their fault or in their control. The only con I have is that the room needs some "refreshing." Our bath tub bad rusty patches and wasn't really enticing to use. read more

Cradle Mountain Lodge, let me sing your praises. Thanks. My five-star review has gotta line up with the five-star room we booked at five-star prices, so take this all with a grain of salt, but by gosh. If you want an amazing experience, grab yourself a night (or longer, if the budget will stretch) in the King Billy suite. For our ten year bestiversary, my BFF and I decided to spoil ourselves and go for it, and between the two of us we had zero regrets about it! From the full rainbow that welcomed us to the Lodge, to Daniel the charming concierge checking us in, to the horde of pademelons that welcomed us to our cabin, to the free bottle of delicious champagne, to the bathrobes and slippers that we donned immediately, to the opportunity to light our own fire in the double-sided fireplace that stood in the centre of the room with a flipping huge king size bed on one side and a lounge area on the other side, to the hot tub on the balcony, to the big fat possum who came to keep us company while we enjoyed said hot tub with said champagne, to the dinner booking that was automatically reserved for us as part of our accommodation, to Damien the concierge who literally drove to his house just to get his own personal auxiliary cable for us to plug in to the stereo so we could play our iPhone jams at peak dance volume (sorry Daniel but Damien totally beat you out with this), to the incredible double shower with rainfall shower heads, to the seriously dreamy morning view out the huge window right next to the bed (pademelons nomming on grass as the morning sun rose and made the dew-frosty green sparkle like diamonds, seriously, shut up)... just stop. Just. Stop. Ok, yes. There were a few minor negatives. 1. we didn't see a wombat :( though this was our own fault because we basically didn't even leave our glorious cabin except for dinner... 2. no snow. damnit, weather! literally four weeks earlier it was covered in a huge snow dump, would it have been too much to ask for that to happen again? 3. the fatty possum who joined us while hot tubbing was eventually a little terrifying. 4. that plate of canapes... maybe don't? 5. pademelons are adorable but black currawongs are evil and terrifying, and the two different creatures will battle it out for your love and affection (and the hope of scraps, bad tourists are bad). pademelon coats are soft, currawong beaks are sharp :( Seriously though, I still have to rate this a five because it was a dream overnight and if I was a famous celebrity I would have a month-long holiday here once a year (because that's the only way I could ever afford it). KB65 forever. read more
