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.

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.
