We stayed in the Roland Cottage which far exceeded our expectations for only $180 a night in peak season. It’s a little further away from Cradle than most of the main hotels, but in a way we liked this better as it was quiet and peaceful - there aren’t many cottages and they are set right against beautiful bushland, making you feel like you’re in the forest. The cottage has a well-appointed kitchen with all the cookware you could possibly need, plus a microwave, kettle, fridge, stove and dishwasher. Coffee, tea and sugar were also provided. Best part of all though was a huge spa bath with bubble bath provided, lovely after a long day of hiking! We only wish we could have stayed longer.
The bathroom was well equipped and the water was beautifully hot. The bed was comfortable, the linen lovely and clean. The heater kept the place lovely and warm in the below zero conditions. However, the reason for the poor rating was we didn’t feel comfortable. The lounge was old and resulted in sore backs. We had an unknown visitor in the middle of the night probably looking for a room, shining their torch in on us, stomping around the verandah and generally making a lot of noise prior to them then setting off their car alarm. A lot of too and growing then followed. Because there was limited phone connection and no wifi there was no-one to ring. There was no internal communication system. We felt very insecure. We were on edge for the rest of the night. That is not a nice feeling.
