"Absolutely love the accommodation! Cute wooden cottage, spotless, full of character and a full kitchen to stay in and cook. Surrounded by nature we even saw a wallaby outside the balcony ❤️ highly recommended!"

"Really helpful having the evening meals delivered and they were delicious, thank you. Cafe on site a bonus too. The cabin was well equipped, lovely throws and couldn’t have been snugger as temperatures dropped. BBQ area looked good but too tired to use it."

We stayed at Cradle in September for one night when the weather was very overcast and raining. It was great to come back to the warmth of the log burner. The cottages are rolled away in the forest and you get a real feeling of being on your own part from a few furry visitors in the twilight. Great place to take your own food ( no reall opportunity to get provisions at the cradle mountain)
The area itself is must to visit

We had the pleasure of being the first guests here and it was honestly amazing. The peaceful area, the lodge, the domes. The lodge is majestic with the fairy lights in the evening! The domes are kitted out so you have all the pleasures of a hotel room, it was faultless. The view from the domes are stunning. Our host was extremely friendly and even gave us a bottle of wine on the house! The communication was perfect and they really cater to all of your needs. I'm already planning my next stay!

Cosy cabin with everything we needed.
Bathroom was a good size and the shower was hot.
We had an amazing view of hills and mountains in the distance from our kitchen window and veranda.
Ate at the nearby Mole Creek Hotel, great food!
Visited Trusnna sanctuary next door to us, would highly recommend this.
Great location for walks in the area.

Located in the forest, so remember to buy your food in the nearest town before you head to the hotel. You will find everything you need in the room. The jetted bathtub was awesome. Will definitely stay in this hotel again.

Family of 4 used the AAA granary accommodation to explore Cradle Mt. , Mole Creek and surrounds. Really fantastic for the kids and amazing views on the mountains. Aging cottages, but spacious, clean, well equipped and fully functional. Would not hesitate to stay there again.

Great for the price and stars. Rooms were simple but very clean with an updated bathroom. Location is perfect and check in was easy. Breakfast is basic - toast, cereal, coffee and juice but free so excellent. It felt very local and authentic. Great character.
