We were two families holidaying together and we can not rate this house enough! We have already booked for next year. Everything about it was amazing. The lay out, location, cleanliness, everything was 100%. The fact that we could take our furry babies with us was the cherry on top!! HIGHLY recommend a stay here!!!

Weekend in Gracetown

Our group consisted of two couples volunteering as part of a community bike ride based in Gracetown. The location of this property was very convenient and a short walk from the event. The property was very comfortable, clean and well-equipped and had great views of Cowaramup Bay from the upper level deck. It was ideal for our small group of four.

Weekend away

Property is well equipped in the kitchen & bathroom with everything you need. Great and quiet location, can't fault the short walk to the beach ๐Ÿ™‚ Couldn't find the dart board but we had fun with the pool table and table tennis in the evenings so it wasn't missed! There was an issue with our stay but owners are aware & are onto it.

The dart board may have been difficult to see but it is in a cabinet on a wall on the back veranda.

Authentic gracetown beach house!

Great quirky beach house. Very clean and well maintained home that has everything you need and more. Kitchen is a highlight - well set up and very easy to cook in. Owner was very easy to deal with and communicated promptly when there was an issue. Comfortable beds. Secure side yard for the dog. Loved it.
