Absolutely gorgeous place to stay, We saw snow fall for the first time and it was so romantic for our 1 year. (August 10-13th Great time for snow!) breathtaking scenery in Cradle Mountain..Great hospitality and great cheese platter and wine. Great for that special romantic getaway with your loved one with a spa and fire place which warms up the room very quickly! If you visit Cradle Mountain make sure you take a walk around Dove Lake in St Clair National Park - Absolutely magical views.. We Didn't want to leave this beautiful, peaceful place - And I'm sure you won't want to either! If you stay in this cabin you will get a visit from peter the Possum every night wanting some attention and food.. He Loves his grapes. A Fantastic experience all round! We will be back for sure! Thank You kate & Kim for your hospitality.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Highlanders. THe cottage was amazingly cosy and warm, the fireplace added that extra touch of being in the wilderness. We saw the resident possums, including Pevelope (who really does love apples). Thank you very much to Kate and Kim for such a wonderful holiday/experience.

What a fantastic place. We've manged to cover many miles but still feel like we've had a holiday. We had sunshine the whole time we were here, but it gets mighty cold. The early morning walks with ice on everything was amazinng.
Cradle Mountain was a spectacular area. The cabins were fantqastic as were the cheese platter, breakfast hampers. Everything about this week has been perfect. Thank you.

Stringybark Cabin
Found this accommodation while looking for a place to stay other than Lodge at Cradle Mountain. It was a "rustic" in keeping with the environment. But also was a quality place and very comfortable on a rainy, windy and cold night. It was well furnished and the wood heater that had all the making ready for a quick and easy fire with lots of wood.
The cabins are quite separate from each other and are very private. The location is central to all the Cradle Moutain National Park offices and the main feature of the lake. Note: You must bring all your food as there are no shops selling non-prepared food at Cradle Mountain. However, the owner/managers of the Highlanders do have an extensive supply of good wine and beer at a good price.

Our stay - 21 Dec 2006. Great place with friendly hosts!
Serene, lovely environment and super weather. 1 night's stay is too short. Some local park residents we met were Pandemelons, kangaroos, possums & a fairly big wombat.
If there's any reason to visit Tasmania again - it will be Cradle Mountain Highlanders Cottage's environment & hospitality.

Wombat Cabin
We stayed in the newly completed Wombat Cottage - exquisite! How lucky were we that it was snowing while we were there, even though it was late October. Plenty of wildlife visitors who came to see us. A great complex run by great people - can thoroughly recommend.

What a totally different experience from tropical Singapore. Our most exciting experience is waking up in the middle of the night to replenish the wood in the fireplace. It is so beautiful to see 3 wallabies (?) hopping around our cottage. Suddenly I felt lost and cut off from the outside world - my mobile phone fails to connect to any network. From a hectic lifestyle in Singapore to a really don't-know-what-to-do environment here! However, it is a wonderful change to come here to recharge my "batteries" to continue with the frantic pace of life back home. Thanks for making our stay here a memorable experience.

This cabin is everything we could have imagined for our Cradle Mountain stay. So well built and very thoughtfully equipped. And yes, it is the smell of the wood as you enter the cabin that will stay in our memories. Beautiful warm log fire... even some wildlife to share with!
