Rainforest Cottage - Palm Cove

Rainforest Cottage is priced for 2 guests only - there is an additional daily fee for each extra guest  (4 maximum)

A cottage with hidden depth - from the front you have no idea of the extent of the garden at the back. It's huge.

A small deck on the upper garden overlooks the rainforest glade below and the seasonal creek beyond. North Queensland is all about the outdoors and this garden invites exploration. Take a book and wander off. Find your own quiet seat in a shady nook. Follow the wide creek bed under great rainforest trees. Named Sweet Creek by Capt Cook when he called in to replenish his fresh water not long before the near disaster off Cape Tribulation.

If you are not planning on going anywhere particularly, then you won't even need a car. The beach is about 5 minutes walk away. There are shops, cafes and restaurants all along the esplanade with the big Melaleuca trees framing the sparkling Coral Sea.

If you like fishing you will find plenty of company on the Palm Cove jetty. Go there anyway - for the view of Double Island and the beach running in a great arc all the way down to Taylor Point.

Many of the paintings in the cottage are the work of the owner who has a gallery on the esplanade.

Rainforest Cottage is priced for 2 people but will take 4 more in the other 2 bedrooms at $22.50 per person per night.

This is a wonderful holiday home for a family or a small group of friends.
