Lemonthyme Wilderness Retreat

My partner and I stayed in the Spa Suite. We were amazed how beautiful the room was! The gas wood fire heater looked so inviting and kept us warm. We loved the character of the buildings. Amazing serenity and so relaxing. The massage chair was a lovely surprise. The food was incredible and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was included in the price and the options were great to choose from. Thank you!!

"An Absolute Paradise!" We had the most incredible stay at this mountain retreat! From the moment we arrived, we felt the stress leave our bodies. Nestled in the heart of nature, this place offers the perfect balance of seclusion and comfort. The cabin is spacious, and beautifully decorated with a rustic yet modern feel. The cozy gas fireplace warmed us up instantly. Tracy was exceptionally welcoming and went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed. The serenity of the area made it feel like a true escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We loved waking up to the sound of birds chirping and the sight of mist rolling through the valley. Whether you’re looking to relax, explore, or just disconnect, this place has it all. We can't recommend it enough and will definitely be back for another stay. Highly, highly recommend!

Lemonthyme was amazing. The staff were wonderful, the food was delicious and the venue was so serene. A great way to escape technology. Most unforgettable moment for us was the chef offering to prepare us a lovely breakfast care pack for our very early road trip to the airport! Just wonderful 🙏🙏. A simple thank you will never describe our sincere gratitude. Hands down a must visit!

Hidden deep away of the norm, we found ourselves being welcomed by Caitlin and Miley who provided service very personalised warm and adaptive. So thank you to the both of them for making our stay extremely comfortable. Just be aware there is no toaster/microwave or cook top. The rooms are extremely comfortable and quiet with beautiful view straight into the surrounding woodlands. Thank you again Lemonthyme, Caitlin and Miley

Simply amazing. Beautiful suites with fireplace, spa, massage chair and a HUGE bed. And then there is the restaurant. Service exceptional, and the food was perfectly presented and cooked. AND then you get to feed some of the local wildlife. No, it's not a budget stay, but you definitely get what you pay for and some. Highly recommended

A stunningly beautiful setting for this retreat up a long, unpaved road. Our room was up on stilts in the trees, absolutely amazing from our balcony. Cozy room. The staff were super helpful, really enjoyed the feeding of the pademelons & possums after dinner. Our stay was perfect, our only negative comment being the small amount of the portions at dinner the first night, although the second night they were more generous. No wifi in the rooms ( it was nice to switch off!) but available in the main building.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay...completely away from everything. We loved our stay here but a couple of points... - the rooms are noisy due to the heating system they use...and kept us awake (we were there in winter so needed the heating) - dining staff just need more training especially on dinner service as they forget your orders, they forget to serve the wine ordered, they just need to up their game on observation...especially when dinner is by staged bookings, so not everyone arrives at the sane time... - the food served is high standard - breakfast is great - beautiful fires - family friendly Would definitely stay again

This is ecotourism at its finest! The lovely resort staff proudly describe how the long term vision for sharing and preserving pristine wilderness was achieved by the early 1990’s. The cabins are comfy and authentic. The gas ‘log’ heater and underfloor heating in the bathroom were a pleasure and the on-site bush walks were just beautiful (ranging from easy to moderate grade). The restaurant is lovely, and the food and wine was reasonably priced. We loved the entrees and deserts. If you order the risotto just ask for knob of butter, some Parmesan and cracked pepper. The only reason we didn’t give 5 stars was the road in - although well maintained, we found the drive pretty nerve wracking. The two way route was narrow with sheer edges. Take sunnies in the morning (driving into sun) and don’t arrive too early (to avoid guests checking out). Then again, we are from the NT, most guests didn’t seem to flinch. Thanks Lemonthyme.
