"Jewel" is fully self-contained luxury amidst the towering Karris and beauty of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park. Indulge yourself with a glass of champagne in the flowering native garden, or get out and discover the caves, bush walks, swimming, surfing and fishing that are all a few minutes away. It is also a 5-minute walk to the "Boranup Forest" cafe where you can enjoy a coffee, breakfast or lunch.
If 4WD is your thing then take to the many trails in the area that lead to pristine beaches and secluded forest.
Alternatively, take a stroll to the nearby fine-wood Boranup Gallery and on the way explore the extensive native garden and look out for emus, kangaroos and the famous birdlife that frequent the property.
At the end of the day, enjoy a BBQ under the outdoor alfresco area while sipping a glass of local wine and counting the Blue Wrens and other birds as they enjoy the bird bath.
Or choose from one of the many quality restaurants in town and taste the local produce.

Thanks Sonya, good that you enjoyed it, the garden and its birdlife is unique.
We had a beautiful stay here while doing the cape to cape walk. How wonderful to come home to a jacuzzi after a long cold wet hike! With wineries so close it’s perfect for exploring too.
Beautiful bush setting, birds chirping and privacy all around - this cottage was relaxing and comfortable for our family of 5. Fantastic location close to everything you need but quiet and peaceful when you return home. Highly recommend
Beaut spot tucked in by boranup forest. The chalet is perfect for a forest retreat. Comfy, clean and had everything we needed. Beautiful gardens and setting

Thank you, Stephen, glad you enjoyed your stay and we would welcome you back anytime. Kind regards, Ines
We really enjoyed our stay here.
It is close to some awesome wineries and beaches.
Best of all though was the garden and bird life that came with it - the 5 o'clock show was amazing!
Wonderful 4 night stay, peace and quiet in the forest surrounds, bird life was amazing coming in for a drink and bath. Got to see mum emu and chick waltzing by. Loved it.
The cottage was very well equipped and comfortable. Extra marks for providing heaters in addition to the wood-burning fire.
The grounds are fabulous, plenty of beautiful native trees and plants and loads of birds.
Will definitely stay here again!

Bush setting with abundance of birds, easy to walk around the property and take photos.
Loved sitting outside for meals.
Perfect for traveling to Augusta and Margaret River plus coast line.
Such a lovely place to stay in between Margaret River and Augusta. We were able to visit local caves, lighthouse and stunning beaches all within an easy drive. The property is cool in Summer and well equipped and appointed with everything you need for a relaxing, private and comfortable stay. The private outdoor areas and birds coming in every morning to drink and cool off in the bird baths were delightful.
