Highland Cabins and Cottages at Bronte Park

中央高地的獨特風情小木屋，很熱情的服務

The two negative reviews from 2023 were embarrassing to read and show why it is important to research your holiday before you leave. Any road map will show you that Bronte Park is a very small and isolated village in the centre of Tasmania. One can’t expect to “Get away from it all” and have all of the city amenities too. Gloria was very welcoming and our “cabin” accommodation turned out to be a fully equipped and spacious two bedroomed house, complete with a fully functioning kitchen, laundry and carport. Ok, the windows could do with a clean and there were some wear and tear marks on the walls and carpet, but everything else was very clean with crisp linen on the beds. Despite the distant gunshots that we heard on arrival, it was very peaceful and the stars were so clear at night. My fussy children wanted to stay for a few more days.

Totally dodgy. The accommodation was ordinary, comfortable, cleanish. It was in the the middle of no-where ( but not in a good way) so there were no choices for meals apart from the food we had with us. The local pub which was the only food outlet in town, burnt down 4 years ago. This was unexpected but ok as our cabin “ deluxe” had basic cooking amenities. There was a power outage the next day and Gloria, the manager/ owner? made no attempt to communicate this apart from leaving a vague note on the unattended office window. When we did spot her greeting new guests we had to run to her car to catch her because it was clear that she was trying to avoid us. We asked her for more information about the outage and she said she would let us know more after 4pm and that she wanted to get back to her cuppa soup and that there were emergency supplies - candles and a gas burner under our sink. She sped off in her car to her property which was about 100 metres away and from that point on she did not communicate or respond to our texts. We were not prepared to pay $205 for an evening with no power - no shower, no internet, no lights, no tv and a very ordinary view of a vacated office and back paddock. We returned the key, tidied up and left after several attempts at communicating with Gloria. No refund, and still no response and this was a week ago. The other reviews on this website must be fake, even without a power outage and without a rude evasive host no one would give this place 5 stars. As dodgy as the Gloria herself.
