Tarraleah in September



Green greetings as we pulled into reception. The lawns were cropped and edged with garden beds. Sprays of daffodils splashed their yellow heads between the pristine gardens and rows of trees. Cottages painted in the subtle hues lined the road leading to The Lodge on the hill. We made our way to our room past paintings, ceramics and even kaleidoscopes. Kaleidoscopes of every shape and design were dotted throughout the Lodge. They must be discovered, each for their individuality and cleverly crafted timbers. Smooth, polished and poised on unique mounts. Our room, number nine, was located at the end of a corridor.  Styled and dressed in contemporary decor and fabrics room nine was impressive. Its bathroom featured a roof mounted jet stream of water that filled the bath for a relaxing soak after a day's travel to the high country and Tarraleah.  To celebrate the occasion, High Tea was served in the lounge area. An area with views to the cliff face opposite and its neighbouring valleys. Savoury and sweet delicacies a most welcome fare to spoil the weary traveller.
