Beautiful property in lovely area
Geri was communicative and attentive without being overbearing or intrusive. The property was lovely and clean - exactly as pictured on the site. We didn’t end up needing the other half but the side we stayed in was comfortable and well equipped for all our needs. Would absolutely stay again and recommend to anyone.

A wonderful holiday home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cape Illawarra, it had everything we needed to explore the local Margaret River region and hunker down in the warm at the end of each day. We spent most of our time in the main living area of the house, which was well appointed and had private views out across the bush setting in every direction. Everything was easy, great hosts, highly recommended.

High quality house in a beautiful bush setting
Cape Illawarra is an excellent place to stay. It is kept very clean with high quality furniture and fittings; all well looked after. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you need should you decide to eat in. The bush setting is perfect and in a quiet neighbourhood. Communication with the owners was very good - clear, prompt and efficient. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and had no complaints (other than that our stay wasn't long enough).

Fantastic place - highly recommended
This is a perfect getaway location for a family or groups of friends. We had 3 couples, and were really impressed with the location and facilities. The peaceful bush location, close to the town centre, and visiting kangaroos added to the tranquillity. Our host Geri was always available to answer any questions. we would definitely visit again.

Outstanding Getaway Location
Just fantastic in every way possible. The location of the house on the 2 hectares of peaceful bush land, is just perfect! A jewel in the bush, yet only a 2 minute drive to the middle of Margret River. The house has everything you need and is beautifully maintained. The 2 separate parts to the house are excellent also. Geri, the owner, was super to deal with and very prompt with answering any queries. The house overall is quite luxurious. We will definitely be back!!

Great relaxing stay
The house is in a fantastic location, a short walk into the main area of Margaret River. The setting is amazing, surrounded by bush, it's a nice relaxing place to stay. The house itself is perfect for a small or large group, with separate areas capable of catering for multiple groups. Geri was in contact on multiple of occasions prior to and at the start of our stay to update us/check in on us which was much appreciated. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. will stay here again if we make our way over to Margaret River again in the future
