The Hermitage - Lovely Historical Accommodation

Escape the modern world and stay at the most unique accommodation in the Midwest.

No television, no WIFI, just the most romantic cottage experience ever.

The Hermitage was designed by Monsignor Hawes, architect of many heritage buildings including St Francis Xavier Cathedral.

It is a small brick and tile residential building with design elements of the Inter-War Old English architectural style and with internal features such as cut out hearts, reflecting the Arts & Crafts Movement influence.

This little cottage is historical & by modern standards, very basic. That is part of its charm. People stay there as an experience & as a retreat.

The hosts live nearby and are available for any queries or assistance anytime.

Although situated close to the CBD The Hermitage sits alone on an acre of fenced land. The only neighbours are the very quiet tenants of a retirement home.

The Hermitage is the perfect combination of spiritual retreat with access to beaches, restaurants and everything Geraldton has to offer.

NB: The Hermitage is a rustic heritage listed property & of significant historical value in the Mid West. It has not been renovated inside to look modern &, apart from the addition of a shower, it has changed very little since Monsignor Hawes built it. Items like air-conditioning & a full kitchen are not available. There is a portable water cooler & other normal fans, heaters plus a basic kitchen with an air fryer, microwave & fridge, but no stove.

A privilege to stay in this iconic cottage
Pristinely maintained little cottage. A pleasure to learn about the builder, John Hawes, from the historical books - strategically provided on the premises. If you want to experience something unique in accommodation, this is a must!
