The Banksia House is spectacular. A home that meets between the ocean and country that keeps you in a bubble devoid of time and space. From the moment you enter the estate the energy is calm, grounded, homely and honestly hard to leave! The wildlife, birds and the night time stars peering through the glass windows were a massive highlight. The house itself is impeccable and impossible to fault. The attention to detail, craftsmanship, interior design, linen, furnishings — right down to the small accents of fresh cuttings, high grade hygiene care, incense and quality kids toys were just some of the details that made us go WOW.
The whole home shouts quality and creature comforts. It is the perfect balance of minimalism, functionality and practicality. We enjoyed a huge amount of nature time with the family playing on the land, but we also loved curling up on the couch watching Netflix. The chefs kitchen is also so well equipped as is the laundry — an important consideration for us on family holidays.
What we loved most was that everything is thoughtfully and purposely placed, which gives the home such a beautiful energy. You can’t help but leave behind any chaos or stress and sink in to enjoy the many coffee table books strewn across the living and bedroom areas.
The Banksia House does not miss a beat when it comes to location and high grade accomodation. It has even inspired us to create more intention in our own home.
Thank you to Karla and Ben who are exceptional and attentive hosts. It has to be one of the most wholesome, re-charging family holidays we have ever had. We can’t wait to come back!
