Ferndale cottage was perfect for us. Perfect host and perfect location. Older style suburban home with Bali flare. Feels like a home away from home as soon as you arrive but you know you are on holiday with its Bali touch. Great for a short or long stay. Great for a family stay. Grab yourself a car and you are on your way as everything perth has to offer is within reach. If you are after a touch of suburban Australian life with a holiday feel I don't think you can ask for more. We visited in the summer and once you had finished your day out the swimming pool was a welcome relaxation. Lyn was a fantastic host and had everything about Perth available to read. Value for money for a family visiting Perth. We wouldn't hesitate in returning to ferndale cottage in the future. Enjoy your stay!!
