Beautiful property, excellent host, and so close to town but with such country vibes you would never know. Kangaroos hopping past the verandah in the evening and morning, lots of lovely birds in the bird bath to watch and a nice wood fire with shelves of books to curl up and read.

Has everything we needed. Great fireplace. The property is right in the bush with birds all around. The outdoor bathroom might not be for everyone, but met our needs. Comfortable beds. Might book again and bring the kids next time.

Accommodation was great. Loved seeing the birds and kangaroos from the back deck everyday. We had two very hot days and was worried there being no air-conditioning but the place stayed so nice and cool. Outdoor bathroom was a highlight. Had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.

We had a great time down south. It was our first time going to Margaret River, I also took my mum and nice who came live overseas. We saw a kangaroo as soon as we arrived at the property. The place is rustic and we loved all about being surrounded by nature. The bathroom is very exotic and we also took our beloved dog. Thank you Emily, we had a great time.

Stay in Margaret River

Was a lovely stay, pleanty big enough even for five people. The location was perfect, being so close to town but feeling so rural at the same time. Was a lovely stay would highly recommend.

This was a fantastic place to stay - we loved the quirky outdoor bathroom/toilet, plenty of space to chill out and the deck area with the birds all around was lovely. Thank you to our amazing host for the little added extras: a bottle of red wine left for us and beautiful flowers all throughout the house, these things were much appreciated. We would love to come back and stay here again.
