Testimonials

Some comments from our guests:

“We both really enjoyed beautiful, peaceful setting of the cottage; close enough but not too close to Margaret River.  It was simply just what we needed and have returned to Perth relaxed and refreshed with ample supplies of good wines and olive oils!
We look forward to a return visit in the not too distant future.” (Mike and Sandra – Perth March 2010)

“The cottage is amazing – views and atmosphere was fantastic.  Great time had by all.  Two great experiences that we always remember so fondly.”  (Fintan, Carmel, Tony and Jennifer – Ireland March 2010)

“A unique and memorable location in a delightfully secluded location with great attention to detail and personal care.
Equipped to a very high standard, with the lovely touch of fresh bread, olive oil and olives provided. Would go back without hesitation.” (Victoria – Perth Jan 2010)

“A truly beautiful spot to stop and take it all in – thank you!
This is a fabulous cottage and an ideal location for a family holiday. Up a dirt road and with a huge garden it is a very peaceful and relaxing place. It is however beautifully deceptive and is only a short drive away from Margaret River which allows you to enjoy any of the numerous other attractions the region has to offer. We would highly recommend it!” (Nick, Kate and family – Melbourne Christmas 09)

“Thank you so much for making us feel so welcome.  Everything was wonderful  – the attention to detail instantly engendered the feeling of pampering associated with a retreat/spa – the smell of newly baked bread on arrival, the olive oil, the Christmas tree and the lovely fire.  The river, the garden, especially the mulberry tree, and the available walks completed the scene.  Well done!” (Rosie from Scotland, December 09)
