Buckland Estate is nothing short of breathtaking. I cannot overstate the historical grandeur of the main house and the picture perfect Dempster cottage.
Only 1.5hrs out of Perth W.A., it is the most magical place for a getaway.
My partner and I, along with our 42kg dog, had a wonderful 2 night stay.
Dempster cottage has a kitchenette that includes an electric oven with stove top, and a microwave, bar fridge, kettle & toaster, so you're happily self sufficient. The bathroom includes a gigantic jetted spa bath with shower, the bedroom is spacious with a wonderfully comfortable bed and in the front room, there's space to relax on a bed / day bed, or eat your freshly cooked meal at the antique dining table.
Once you walk out past the manicured lawns, the view is rolling hills, huge trees, rocky outcrops and farmland.
The hospitality shown by the hosts is genuine from arrival, they're knowledgeable about the estate history and generous with their time.
Truly beautiful. An absolute treasure.
