About this property

Banana Pancakes - Walk to Margaret River Town

Banana Pancakes is a delicious 1950’s jarrah weatherboard cottage, renovated and restored into a delightful and comfortable holiday home, set in a fairytale cottage garden in the prettiest corner of Margaret River and only a kilometre from town.

As the name suggests, this is the place where you can relax with your family and friends, and indulge the eating pleasures of a leisurely Sunday morning, where the world rolls by.

This picturesque jarrah cottage is fully self-contained and is situated on a one acre bush property with cultivated gardens, native plants and fruit trees, fully fenced to keep the family dog secure. A walk at sunset is an enjoyable experience of sights and sounds in a peaceful environment.

All linen and bath towels are included in the price.

Please note that the bedroom with the two single beds has sliding doors that can be accessed if required from two of the other bedrooms.

"Maybe we can sleep in. Make you banana pancakes. Pretend like it’s the weekend now." - Jack Johnson

Guest Comments

"We stayed at Banana Pancakes Holiday House in June 2014 and I must say that it's the most delightful place that I've stayed at in Margaret River. It's tucked away in a majestic location surrounded by tall trees, cottage gardens and quietly chirping birds. You feel that you are a million miles away, despite the town centre only being a stone throw away. We were impressed by the tranquility, the house design and the amenities that they had to offer. Amongst the highlights were sitting by the wood fire at night or on the back verandah at daytime overlooking the beautiful gardens. We felt as if we were at a home away from home. We have already recommended this to all of our friends and we will certainly be revisiting Banana Pancakes again." Emma from Perth.

"We stayed for our family holiday at Banana Pancakes and loved every minute of it! There was so much to keep the kids occupied, including a trampoline, tyre swings, a bike track and a great selection of games. That was when they weren't exploring the huge property! Looking forward to our next getaway!" The Brennan family.

"We stayed 2 nights at Banana Pancakes and seriously didn't want to leave, its such a beautiful tranquil place. The cottage itself is so well equipped and spotless! With the added bonus of being able to bring our dogs who loved the acre of fully fenced bush garden. I am so glad I found this accommodation and cannot wait for our next stay." - Sarah.

We loved Banana Pancakes. Kids loved the toys, books and activities and had plenty of room to run around outside.The kitchen has everything you need for cooking.Beds and couch were super comfortable and the aircon in the lounge was enough to keep the house cool during the hot days.The property felt secluded but was close to town and an easy 20 minute walk to the main strip. We were super lucky and saw kangaroos on the drive our first morning.

There was plenty of toys for a small child to play with and they where kind enough to ensure there was a slip mat for a toddler to use in the bath. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the walks in the garden.

Perfect house for a family holiday. Our teenager was happy to have her own room, while the kidult boys were happy in their own space. They even used the cricket toys (after a few ball purchases). Meanwhile I felt like I was a millions miles from anywhere. Being surrounded by the most beautiful trees and birds. Loved my little walks around the property

Gorgeous cottage

Beautiful little cottage - really nicely decorated and super cosy. Had a fab few days. Maggie dog loved it but had to keep on lead as cattle cross and fence not high enough to contain her. Perfect location between town and beach too!

Response from VrboOwner on 7 September 2021
Thanks for the feedback Lesley. We are not sure what you mean by cattle cross as we don't have one of these on the property. The fence is approximately 1.5m. Sorry that your dog was able to get over it. Thanks very much for staying with us! :-)
