Beautiful Character Home, Great Location.

Highly recommend to stay in Busseltonia ,spotlessly clean, well equipped throughout to make your stay relaxed and enjoyable. Location is a high point being a 5 to 10 minute stroll to the beautiful foreshore and to the town centre with shopping and eating options. Very hard to better, this is your home from home along with a lovely heritage garden. Park the car and walk, so enjoyable, we did , sure you will find the same.

Home Away From Home

What a wonderful way to relax! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this character home with all mod cons, lovely furnishings and well equipped cupboards. It is only a short walk to the beach which we visited twice daily thanks to the beautiful weather put on for our visit. The dogs really appreciated the walks and beaching too! I love the close proximity of this home to both the beach and the town centre. Thanks very much.

Picturesque, Beautiful, cosy and very comfortable

We brought our pet dog down for the long weekend and we couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay. The weather wasn’t great, bit we lite the log fire and spent our evenings cosied up in the comfortable living room. The house had everything that we needed including a lovely back garden for our dog. The cottage was in a brilliant location too, there was a park opposite the house which was perfect for walking our dog and the jetty was only a short walk away. I would highly recommend this beautiful property

AMAZING!

WOW! What an AMAZING home to stay in! Beautiful old fashioned house with many wonderful modern features. I have stayed in Busselton many many times before and this last holiday was the best! Close to the town and of course Busselton's World class beach. I will be staying there again 😃. And if you are reading this I recommend you stay there to! Busseltonia as a holiday home is relaxing and in a quiet neighbourhood, tranquil gardens wonderfully equip home and great air-conditioning on a hot day. As you can guess I loved my holiday at Busseltonia.
