We had such a wonderful stay at Mary-Ellen's home in Balingup, and would definitely recommend it to others. The house is beautiful and tranquil, and while it is conveniently located on the Main Street (less than a minute's walk to all the shops!), it is also very private. While we didn't see her in person, Mary-Ellen was a very helpful and friendly host, and getting into the house and settling in was a breeze, thanks to her clear instructions. We also appreciated being left to our own devices for the entirety of our stay. Balingup is a very interesting little town, and there is plenty to see and do in the surrounding area, including wineries and a few arts and craft and antique shops.
