Family Accommodation Cooktown
Family Accommodation in Cooktown That Gives Everyone Their Own Space
The selection of a place to stay when you’re travelling with kids can make or break a trip. You need somewhere the children can burn off energy after hours in the car. Parents want a bit of breathing room once everyone’s settled for the night. A kitchen helps too, especially for early breakfasts or fussy eaters who won’t touch restaurant food.

We’re set across 8 acres of tropical gardens. Just a short walk from Cooktown’s town centre. Kids can explore safely here. You’ll find many silent spots to relax.
