Stayed here with my dad for two weeks (late October to early November) and absolutely loved it. The apartment is huge, spotless, and has everything you need - comfy beds, full kitchen setup, laundry, air con, even tennis rackets and balls for the court.The location is ideal - tucked away in the beautiful Perth Hills near Parkerville, surrounded by cockatoos, ringnecks and kangaroos, yet only about 40 minutes from the city. The Parkerville Tavern is a short walk away and there are endless trails, national parks and reserves right on the doorstep.Hosts Julie and Ken were brilliant - warm, helpful and full of great local tips (Ken’s organic beef from his farm is a must-try!). We felt totally at home and really appreciated the little touches like local guides and brochures.Would highly recommend this place for anyone wanting a peaceful nature escape that’s still close to Perth - perfect for families, couples or travellers looking to explore the Hills and Swan Valley. Excellent value for money compared to city stays. Big recommend!

I must have missed the info that the owners home is attached to the accommodation as this surprised me. I paid more for a property with a pool but the pool wasn’t even operational yet, there was no water at the premisis upon arrival whilst not their fault (watercorp) it was problematic when we had a wedding to prep for. At 6.30 the next morning when I tried to shower there was no hot water after the first couple of minutes, apparently gas had run out. A series of issues which led me to leave a day early It was suggested to me that there would be some financial compensation but nothing has been forthcoming even after an email was sent

We enjoyed our stay here, the tennis court got a good workout and it was lovely to be able to pick some fresh citrus from the orchard. The guesthouse was clean and spacious, and Julie was very accommodating.

The property is a bit too close to the owners. They could see inside our accommodation. But this wasn’t too much of a problem. Very comfortable. Had a spa bath which was great.

Great Staycation

Lovely place for a quick weekend away in the hills. Comfortable and roomy. Kids enjoyed playing out in the fresh air. Tennis courts were a hit. We were there in winter, but the pool would make it great for a summer visit too. Great lunch at the Parkerville Tavern just 5 minutes away. Pretty sure that we will head back again.

Wonderful!

Thank you Julie for sharing your wonderful property with us. It was beautifully presented and very clean. We had a wonderful relaxing stay and a lot of fun on the tennis court!! The beds were super comfy with beautiful linens. We all slept so well! We only had time for a short stay but your property is so well stocked with creature comforts, plenty of space and things to do we would love to stay for a lot longer next time. We highly recommend! Thanks again.

It was a pleasant stay

I would have liked to see a starter pack on arrival. Simple things like tissues, t-bags, coffee,milk, salt, pepper, paper towel. Having owned and managed a Stayz property, I always provided these items along with other non-perishables, and have always seen them provided in other short-stay accommodation. I was also surprised the nightly rate was based on 1 person. Have never seen that before. The owners were very friendly and overall we had a nice stay.
