Highly recommended is the Yindi day spa at the Carrington Hotel, a wonderful escape for a few hours for a total pampering, an easy stroll from the cottage. www.yindi.com.au
Waratah Cottage was lovingly restored by its owners in 2002. The gardens though not large are spectacular and peacefully designed with relaxation and privacy in mind.
Dry stone walls are a feature in the garden all built rock by rock, hand by hand, the huge 17 meter dry stone wall took owner, Phillip Campbell, 7 weeks to construct.
It is a pleasure to just relax and read in these beautiful surroundings and all so close to everything the mountains has to offer.
If you are arriving by train with light luggage the walk is only 5-10 minutes at the most, down hill all the way. A taxi ride would cost from $6.00 - $10.00 and take about 2 minutes.
