Get in touch with nature at Frogspark

Frogspark provides comfort whilst being kind to the environment. The home's passive solar design provides warmth and sunlight as well as beautiful views whilst the back to grid solar array, solar hot water system and rainwater supply further reduce its carbon footprint. Care is taken in provisioning and cleaning to avoid harsh chemicals and local products are used wherever possible.
We have been rewarded in turn with an abundance of wildlife including kangaroos, water birds and importantly at least 5 species of frogs indicating that Frogspark is indeed treading lightly!

Crisp mountain air outside, cosy comfort inside
At 1100m above sea level, Frogspark enjoys daffodils and blossom in Spring, mild Summers, Colourful Autumn leaves and occasional snow in winter. Frogspark surroundings are ideal for exercise, you can wander the adjoining forests trails or cycle along our quiet road or into town along the cycleway. The grounds are ideal for you to share with your children with plenty of room to run around, a large comercial playground, and a dam to explore and bike hire is available for guests.
Inside, Frogspark provides warmth and comfort with underfloor heating, electric blankets, cosy lounges, a gourmet kitchen for cooking up a storm and a giant table to gather around. Books, DVDs, CDs, magazines and games as well as a pool table and darts provide entertainment whatever the weather outside.

Highly recommend Frogspark
We recently stayed at Frogspark for our sons wedding. The accommodation was everything we hoped for, absolutely perfect and slept 14 adults comfortably. It was clean, catered for everything with plenty of room for everyone. We had the best time and will definitely be booking a family get together again so we have more time to enjoy everything Frogspark has to offer.

Amazing place for holiday
The place was wonderful and stocked with amenities and things to do. The kitchen was large and well stocked, and the family areas were spacious yet cozy. Many things to do around too like biking and chilling around the pond. My friend’s car got bogged on the way to the home, and Glenn, Charlie and Sharon were wonderful enough to help get us out. Proper life savers! The home and the hospitality was just top notch. We all love the place and would definitely come back some time in the future. I highly recommend visiting Frogs Park with family and friends!
