The cottage was perfect for us. It is in a quiet location - a bush setting with nice ringneck parrots and the occasional kookaburra coming to visit us. The cottage was as advertised in Stayz. We would rebook it if we ever returned to Margaret River.

The cottage is amongst the trees - very quiet and peaceful - but very handy to the centre of town. Lots of space where you need it - in the living room. Margaret Fiver is a great place for staying whilst seeing all the surrounding attractions.
