We stayed in Number 1 and had absolutely amazing views. No Wifi or reception, just quiet and peaceful with beautiful scenery and walks. The spa bath was a lovely luxury and the bed was extremely comfortable. It's the perfect place to escape for a romantic couple of nights. Definitely recommend :-)

What a find! The cabin had everything you need, a beautiful outlook, Kenilworth is a short drive away for supplies and Booloumba Creek is just down the road for hiking and exploring. Highly recommend.
