What a hidden gem! If you are looking for tranquility in a hectic world, this is the place to spend a night or two. A beautiful rustic cottage far enough outside Balingup to feel remote, but close enough for your morning coffee. Little touches like homegrown tomatoes and freshly laid eggs were much appreciated and delicious. You can also fall asleep to the sound of running water from the water feature in the courtyard outside your room.

Make sure to stop for a chat with Lisa and John as they are great people and also have top recommendations of places to go locally - we enjoyed Kirrup fruit and veg shop and visiting Lake Clifton on our way back to Perth.
