This was my absolute favourite place to stay while we toured Tassie. It was quiet, there were hiking trails close by, the staff were so friendly!
We will gladly visit again next time we are down.

This is a great place for a quiet getaway. The grounds are great to walk around, especially the old golf course and the creek area. Looking forward to the bridges being repaired after the floods so we can explore further next time.

Wanted somewhere quiet and comfortable for a few nights. Idyllic surroundngs, could not be more peaceful. Cabins are modern and well equipped, surrounding countryside is spectacular. I just wish I could have stayed longer.
What a find!! Stayed 2 nights, so peaceful, comfortable, spacious & great walking tracks. My husband said he was looking for something to complain about but couldn’t find anything. Highly recommend 😊

This is a lovely property - blends in beautifully with the surroundings. You feel you are part of nature and can enjoy close up encounters with local wildlife. We were fortunate to meet the caretakers who took time to introduce us to the area and how to get the best out of the stay. The cabin has everything you need for a great stay. The view and surrounding are magical.

Unexpectedly great accommodation, almost luxurious cabins with a light, open design. One of the quietest nights I've ever had. Area is super peaceful and true to nature. Hosts are personal and friendly. We could not have wished for anything more!

Unreal location, perfect for a relaxing time out. Would highly recommend it to everyone.
Should be opaque glass in bathroom and a block out blind in long narrow window in living area,a little too bright at night due to outside lighting!

The cabins are modern, clean, well-equipped, and thoughtfully designed to blend sympathetically into the landscape. The location is tranquil and free of distractions, a great place to connect with the environment. Upon arrival, you will find information on bushwalks of varying duration in your cabin. We will certainly visit again, hopefully for a longer stay. Highly recommended.
Communication from the team was friendly and helpful

This is a great spot for a back to nature relax. Great cooking facilities in the accommodation kitchen and a communal outdoor bbq and fire pit.
Possums and quolls on the deck at night. Lots of wallabies and evidence of wombats.
Dog friendly, keep on a lead.
A huge surrounding property to explore and play in nature.
Pack all your food needed as the shops are a bit of a drive away.
Pack waterproof shoes as there are limited formed pathways.
We stayed at Craggy Peaks this weekend for Mothers Day.
The units are really lovely and very well designed with everything but food being available! The King size bed was very comfortable and warm and the kitchen/ bathroom were modern and clean. The views & grounds are absolutely beautiful and the owners are very helpful, going the extra mile to ensure your stay is exactly what you want it to be.
Its fantastic that they are also Dog friendly so we were able to take our fur babies and they had a ball as well!
We will definitely stay there again and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a Getaway that offers peace and tranquility amongst nature with stunning mountain views of "Craggy Peaks". :)

We were fortunate to stay a week at Craggy Peaks and each day was a delight.The location is peaceful and secluded but you can also be as active as you wish with lots of exploring to do in the old mining towns , more strenuous walks up the many bluffs which surround the Retreat, taking a stroll on the soft natural grasslands of the old golf course or simply sitting on the balcony and getting to know the friendly local native animals. The cabins were thoughtfully and tastefully fitted out, recognising the isolation with a full kitchen, a shared laundry and helpful extras available at reception where you find friendly staff who are always to assist with information about the area.
A visit to the Mathinna Country Club is a must if you take the time to travel to Ben Lomond!
There are also three lovely camping spots by the creek and a couple of powered smaller van sights near the spotless BBQ and firepit area.
Within easy reach of the East coast , the Midland ( Heritage) Highway and Launceston, this oasis is a perfect layover.
We certainly hope to return.

Two words: Highly Recommended!
If you are looking for a place to be in touch with nature, stay grounded and "completely switch off" from a busy lifestyle/work schedule, this is the place for you. The site managers are amicable, knowledgable, and can recommend places to explore (within walking or driving distances). Lovely little walks surround the property; the cabin is clean and provides enough amenities to self-sustain you and your family.
