Mid Week Getaway
Myself and my sister who was over from NZ had beautiful stay. Such a warm welcome from Marita and Ian and they think of everything from chocolates in the fridge, fresh food from their garden including baby tomatoes and Figs. We arrived in the middle of a 40plus degree heat wave and the aircon was already on for us and the pool was fantastic. Highly recommend.

Absolutely as advertised and wonderful!
This property could not be more accurately described as "Rustic Retreat". It is indeed rustic. And it indeed provides all that is needed to serve as a retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. As we were driving back and hit Perth, we commented on wishing we were back at the peaceful surrounds of the Rustic Retreat. Thank you Marita and Ian for welcoming us and providing such a quaint and fun retreat for our quick getaway. Also, the sheep and ducks are just too cute and funny!! :)

Lovely people, lovely property, lots of birds!
Everything was clean and comfortable and as described. Leaves were just beginning to turn (Easter 2023) and we would love to go back in other seasons too. The location is good to visit Nannup, Bridgetown, Donnybrook as well as Balingup itself.

Loved this 5 Star Rustic Retreat
This is a beautiful property housing an amazing ‘Rustic Retreat’ built into part of a shed in a wonderful part of the South West. Hosted by the owners of the property, Marita and Ian who really know how to make their guests feel special and have ensured everything has been provided to make you more than comfortable. As guests you are invited guests to explore and enjoy their amazing surroundings with beautifully maintained gardens, ponds, sheep and cattle on the property together with all the wonderful native birds in the area. The hosts have provided a unique experience in which to be located so close to the Balingup township, yet with the impression that you are miles from anywhere. The wood fire keeps you warm in the cooler seasons and there is a reverse cycle airconditioner for the warmer weather as well. The accommodation is super clean & superbly decorated and furnished to suit the environment together with very comfortable beds. We look forward to returning again in the future and would highly recommend to family and friends and anyone looking to visit this absolutely beautiful part of the South West.
