Cottages

Every day at Watatunga is different and there is no better way to experience the variety of the reserve than by booking one of our newly renovated holiday cottages. Guests staying in the Stable Cottage, Gate Lodge or Major’s Lodge are welcomed on a complimentary guided tour of the reserve the morning after their arrival to learn about the animals and their conservation stories.  Unsupervised use of our electric buggies is exclusive to guests booked into our holiday accommodation to ensure that your experience of the reserve is unique and undisturbed, experiencing the magic of Watatunga’s wildlife at your leisure.
