It was exceptionally clean and quiet and close to the main attractions of Longreach. The bed was very comfortable. An added bonus was the early morning visit by four lovely kangaroos outside the kitchen window.

We really enjoyed the friendly service provided by Wendy at check-in after a long drive and throughout our stay. We were even invited to enjoy a hot tub experience under the stars which was a highlight. Wendy provided an additional roller bed at no additional cost, as my partner had trouble sleeping. We felt comfortable and at home here at Saltbush Retreat. We definitely recommend this property. Thanks, Murray and Liz

We stayed in the Slab Huts, they were a very authentic feeling replication of slab timbered, but with insulated corrugated iron roofed huts, very roomy with great facilities and gave a true feeling of outback history. They were large and extremely comfortable and exactly what was portrayed on their website. We totally commend the operators who went out of their way to make our stay memorable.
