Peppers Cradle Mountain Lodge

Our attitude was influenced by the fact that the cabin was not available when we checked in. It was indicated that cleaning was in progress but it took one and a half hours before we had access. This in turn impacted on what we could have done during that time. Had we known the time we may have set our program a little differently. The place is different given its unique location and the cabin is nice, if a little tired. The roads to the cabins were in a poor state of repair. This is an expensive hotel so the expectation is high.

Staff were excellent and helpful. Great location to explore cradle mountain. Not too many options other than whats at the hotel ie. Shops and restaurants but still a very enjoyable stay, surrounded by local wildlife.

A pleasant stay

My room was super clean and surrounded by wildlife. I also booked a treatment at the Waldheim spa as well as two times the private sanctuary (at it was just stunning). The crew over there was so so nice. Especially Senna who gave me lots of nice recommendations about the area and north east of tassie. A wonderful and absolutely unexpected breathtaking stay! I also loved that you can spot platypuses in the lake at the lodge.

The pictures are misleading - it is not 'lakeside', they have a small pond on site. Location is great, with many nice treks starting from the hotel and super great location for cradle mountain. Other than that, nothing to shout about. The cabins are very simple, definitely not a 4 star resort.
