A home away from home

This was our second visit to this place and it was as perfect as we remembered. The location is excellent, walking distance to the beach, to the shops, doctors. The house is amazing, the garden is huge! The dogs had a ball. I ended up getting sick and so spent most of the time indoors, moving from one comfy couch to another, watching Netflix and looking out of the large glass windows or sitting in the garden. At night one can hear the waves from the ocean. It was just lovely. Highly recommended.

Leavers

I booked this house for my daughter and 5 of her friends for Leavers this year and they really enjoyed their stay. The house is beautifully set up, easy walking distance to the shops, beach/jetty and also the official Leavers bus stop! Leanne is a pleasure to deal with and checked in on the girls daily. I would highly recommend this property for any family or group looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay anytime in Busselton.
