Glenburn Lodge & Spa

We were there for our 10 year anniversary and have stayed in several places with in the cradle valley area including cradle moon which is directly opposite Glenburn So we know what to expect in the area, BUT Spiders are expected in bush type holiday yes but when the resort is over run by spiders where the webs are extremely well developed and old long standing, i counted 18 webs larger than myself in one garden area out side the room in a busy area not in wild bush, and on 1 web there were 31 adult golden orb spiders. There was toilet waste running down the path into the crocodile river with a stench that was unbearable, the food was overpriced for the quality served at the buffet. Ordering of the menu was better and cheaper. They offer mountain bikes as an activity which all 3 were barely ridable we took them out and didnt even make it to the mountain bike trail before having to return the bikes. This trip was by far the worst stay we have ever had. The staff were either really helpful or completely ignore you no in between. Simple thing like garden maintenance and controlling of the spiders not exterminating them but in main areas the webs should not be able to be developed which will force the spiders to move away from the actual living space. Tap in the bath was broken so you had to pull rather than turn the tap for the water to go on. Toilet paper is a simple thing but terrible quality, Beds old and hard and pillows dont even fluff up anymore they so old. worst holiday.

I was a little dissappointed with the accommodation, everything was clean but I found a cockcroach in our room. WE had the buffet in the restaurant and it was fantastic. I am a vegetarian, and there was more than enough choices to satisfy my palate Overall a very nice stay
