Dunsborough is a must for any family wanting a relaxing getaway and a real local village atmosphere, immaculate and kiddy friendly beaches, with breweries and wineries nearby.
Colin's 'Peron Cottage' is a really cosy home and encapsulates dunsborough. It was really easy to find. It felt like a home away from home. It has a blend of rustic and modern with a great kitchen and really good back verandah/alfresco area and will suit most couples and families. The outdoor shower (hot water!!) is fantastic to hose off the sand and then come in and prep up the food for the evening BBQ at the house. There's a pretty good collection of DVDs and games if you want a quiet night in! It has a Bluetooth compatible mini hifi perfect to pair up with your smart phone to play your own music, great touch!!

We are a couple with an 18 month toddler and Colin accommodated with a good quality portable cot and highchair. Our daughter loved running around the back verandah and yard and we always felt safe and secure.
The house kept cool on a 33 degree day with little need for aircon and it always cools down at night.
The annexe out the back would be handy though if you have adolescent kids or even suit 2 couples with kids.
The main drag is under a 10 minute walk and the closest beach is a 5 minute walk but suggest the 5min drive to Meelup beach (stunning) and the eagle bay brewery is a must for lunch!
Tips for guests: Bring a hoodie, cardi etc in the summer, it can get cool at night, but really good for sleep comfort.
The Driveway is a little bumpy at the crossover, so we scratched the bottom of our little Toyota Corolla hire car, which luckily had full coverage. 4WD no worries but if using a sedan go extra slow coming out of the driveway and on a slight angle.
Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay and would recommend this for anyone who wants a cosy retreat close to local shops and beaches and easy access to the beautiful Margaret river wine region.
