Fantastic stay yet again - Amazing!

Stated in the new Homsteads this time, the only accommodation I hadn't previously stayed in. Very modern and comfortable. Good WiFi out front of cabin, but not inside, excellent up at restaurant area. Room and bathroom were both spacious and clean. Good hot water and water pressure in shower. Bed comfortable, though the pillows were quite hard. Very quiet and peaceful. The restaurant, as usual was excellent. The subset tour was awesome, Ty was a fantastic tour guide. Fantastic stay !

We last visited the Undara Caves 55 years ago, yes in 1970! We bush camped in swags in the dirt. What a pleasure to now have enjoyed the very comfortable Undara Lodge facilities. The converted railway carriage we had was delightful. We were able to visit Barkers Cave again, that we had explored in our early 20s.

A well organised and attractive property offering interesting tours of the geology of the area. The tent accommodation option proved comfortable and practical. Facilities for food preparation and eating are good but the addition of basic eating utensils would have enhanced the experience further
