We can't say enough good things about the hosts, Siobhan and Carlo. They were great hosts and wonderful chefs. Siobhan grew up in the area and was very helpful in providing valuable suggestions on how to prioritize our activities given the multitude of things to do in the area and our limited schedule (we stayed 2 nights). We liked the location as it was not as far from Perth as Margaret River and could be reached within a reasonable time after work on Friday, but still conveniently located for access to the wineries, Margaret River, and Augusta. The property is very large with beautiful views of the rolling hills and the ocean in the distance. There is a nice gazebo and deck outside the house where you can have tea/read/watch the sunset. And the general sitting area downstairs has a huge fireplace and is a comfortable place to relax in the evenings. Breakfast was superb, the best we had in our 2 weeks in Australia. At our request Siobhan recommended one of the local wineries for dinner, it too was one of the best meals we had in WA. We did not see any kangaroos on the property although all the other guests at breakfast said that they saw "heaps and heaps" of them. We did see some on the way back from dinner - apparently the general area is a favorite 'roo hangout, so you're bound to see them even if they don't come up to the house. The room and bathroom were comfortable and clean, we had a little balcony outside our room where we could relax and enjoy the solitude. we had requested an extra rollaway bed, and as Siobhan promised on the phone, it was indeed very comfortable and not at all squishy or back-breaking. We would definitely stay here again the next time we are in the area.
