Cabin Accommodation

Our cabin accommodation consists of eight student cabins for up to 98 students.

Six of these student cabins have separate shower and toilet facilities.  Two more student cabins offer full disabled access with shower/toilet facilities.  These two accessible access cabins can also be utilised by students without disabilities.    

All beds are bunk style.

There are four cabins specifically designed for teachers with two desks, wardrobes and sleeping up to three teachers.  This consists of a bunk and single bed in each of these four teacher cabins.  

Each teacher cabin has its own ensuite with a shower and toilet.    

The coach drivers have not been forgotten with two designated single rooms each with their own ensuite, tv, tea/coffee making facilities and a small fridge.  

Catering

Offering full catering for your school, Camp Cottermouth prides itself on nutritious meals. 
Providing a continental breakfast each day including cereal, toast, fruit, yogurt and juice.  

For lunch, students have the opportunity to make their own to be packed on the bus for their daily excursion.  We provide a lunch making station in the morning with a variety of breads, wraps, spreads, meats, salad fillings and condiments.

Morning and afternoon teas are provided daily and packed with fresh fruit, cake and snacks.

After your day exploring Canberra, return to a home style cooked dinner and a yummy desert before settling into the evening.
