Overlooking a strawberry field at Westerway (8km east of Mt Field National Park) are these great-value, immaculate self-contained cottages: one studio-style cabin for couples, and one two-bedroom rangers’ hut, relocated from Mt Field National Park, for families. There are also a couple of cute two-bed bunkhouses, where you can file the teenagers, and wallaby sightings are a distinct possibility.
