As a regular visitor to Featherbed, I always have a great experience. The walk is always fun and the guides and driver are well trained and experienced and knowledgeable.. The lunch is always of a high quality and definitely moreish. The desserts are equally decadent. - SAFG


Our trip to Featherbed was a wonderful experience. We particularly enjoyed the hike, which provided spectacular views, an opportunity to view the stunning cave and culminated in a delicious lunch under the milk wood trees. Together with our guide our trip to Featherbed was a memorable event which is highly recommended. - Peter


I had 2 ladies from Switzerland. They had a wonderful experience at Featherbed, were impressed by the beautiful nature. The lunchspread was fantastic. A big compliment to Colin the charming and knowledgeable guide. Erika Smith - Erika


an absolutely amazing experience. our family had a wonderful time and we will definitely be back. The lunch was out of this word, a build your own salad bar, the meats and chicken so tenderful and fulfilling. we even tried the pickled fish and that was one of our faves. and the desert bar was a surprise with plenty of options from cheese cake to lemingtons and malva pudding an many more. The drive up to the Island was breathtaking and the hike to the hole in the wall was so worth it. a ten out ten experience. Thanks to the team who made the day super fun. regards, Williams family - Marc-Anthony


An excellent trip to Featherbed. Highly recommended. - Paul
