About this property

Jilba Cottage

Nestled on the southern slopes of the ancient Porongurup Range lies Jilba.
Surrounded by national park and backing onto the famous Castle Rock it is a magical place , a special place , a nature lovers paradise.

With granite outcrops and beautiful karri trees , there is 25acres behind the cottage where you can explore to your hearts desire. Go barefoot , reconnect to the earth , recharge and just breathe.

Perhaps you would prefer to walk through the beautiful gardens and stop to smell the roses instead.

In winter you can sit and toast marshmallows or make smores and memories around the firepit, teach the kids how to start a fire and that there is so much more to life than screens.

At the end of the day you can kick back on the balcony , taking in the breathtaking views over rolling country side all the way to Albany and the Southern coastline, while the kids play on the lawn below. At night you can lose yourself in the stars.



Situated on the second story, you have complete privacy with the downstairs used only for storage.
Jilba cottage has a fully equipped kitchen with full size oven and fridge.
There is an oh so comfy leather lounge suite with 4 recliners so you can put your feet up and relax ...just like home ! We have lots of books , movies and board games to while away the hours on rainy days.
The queen size bed has a good quality mattress and our linen and towels are of a high standard.
All beds are fitted with electric blankets . The bedside lamps in the master are fitted with usb charges.
A complimentary breakfast of Harvey Fresh orange juice , Bannister Downs milk, freshly baked bread , organic free range eggs , butter , jams , Vegemite , homemade muesli , tea and coffee will be provided for your first morning to fuel you up for one of the many spectacular hikes you can choose from.
