Luxury Bush Retreat- Sleeps 12- Near Beach & Town- Super Winter & Spring Special
Gather your friends and families, round up your besties and enjoy a cosy break Down South. Crowds are thinner, the vineyards are greener, the caves are cooler and the coastline is wilder with whale watching peaking between June and August. Embrace the chill, enjoy the Margs vibe- the breweries, wineries and restaurants are open , their fires are lit, inviting you to relax in the cellar door with a glass of red and nowhere to go for the rest of the afternoon. Any questions- please message me! THE SPACE A “Classic” Margaret River escape, our Down South “home away from home”. Lovingly crafted from rustic mud bricks, timber bush poles, steel and glass with warm jarrah timber flooring and timber lined cathedral style ceilings throughout. Comfortably sleeping 12, all five bedrooms are spacious, airy and filled with natural light. The two King master suites are nestled on the upper level. Relaxing, spacious and calm parent bedrooms and retreats both enjoy ensuite bathrooms, studies and large private balconies overlooking the treetops- perfect for enjoying a breakfast coffee, reading a book, yoga, meditation or lazing on the hammock or daybed listening to the bird life. Other guest bedrooms are collocated on the ground floor. (Refer to Plans) The large, country style kitchen is well equipped with European appliances, Nespresso coffee machine and pantry all set up for family cooking and entertaining everyone. The casual open plan lounge area with double height vaulted timber ceiling, wood fire and comfy sofas is perfect for a family evening get together, movie night, board games or simply enjoying a quiet glass of wine and nibbles by the fire. In the warmer months, throw open the large sliding folding doors from the living area to the alfresco dining and entertaining area overlooking the rolling lawn. This large undercover rear timber deck is equipped with outdoor lounge, sun beds, dining table, table tennis table, dart board, BBQ, portable gas heater, ceiling fans and party lights- there’s not much more you could need or want! The lawn is perfect for kids fun, a bounce on the trampoline, play on the swings, ball games, making cubbies, star gazing or just relax, soaking up some leisure time in the sun! You are welcome to wander the grounds, peacefully enjoying the tall Marri and Red gum trees and wildflowers- the odd kangaroo is likely to hop by and say G’day!

Thanks a bunch for your lovely review Emily and Jeremy. Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Kilcarnup Break and the kangaroo encounters too! We’d love to have you stay again in the future so please just let me know!
Everything was clean, neat and tidy. There were plenty of board games and books suitable for all ages. We had more than enough rooms and bathrooms for everyone. We found the accomodation perfect for small groups and families.
We loved our stay at Kilcarnup break. A super comfortable and well equipped house, it was perfect for our extended family gathering. Very relaxing environment, but also close enough to the beaches and wineries. Brooke was a great host. Please don’t stay here, we’d like to book it again!
Stayed here recently with various family members including two from overseas. Everyone enjoyed the facilities at the property and the location was beautiful and convenient.
Very peaceful location and everything was ready for our family getaway at the property.
Everything was close and easy to access.
We would love to stay again.
We had an amazing stay at Kilcarnup Break. The house is huge and there is everything you could need, including very comfy beds, a ping pong table, backyard cricket set, Nespresso coffee machine and more. Thank you so much for having us!!
We had a large group stay here and the configuration of the house was perfect for our needs - 2 master bedrooms upstairs both with ensuites and private balconies, and the rooms were huge; allowed us to separate from kids. Location is amazing. Would definitely stay again
Great location for what we were doing, and only 10 minutes from town, 10 minutes from Prevelly beach.
The house was great for 2 families (4 adults 6 kids), plenty of space inside and out, plenty of activities for the kids, Trampoline, basketball, table tennis and a huge yard.

It was a good stay. There were a few issues with the trip switch, which went off a couple of times, but other than that everything was okay. The host was contactable and responsive.
Absolutely beautiful property and house.. we loved our stay at Kilcarnup Break.
It was a special family getaway to spend some precious time with our mum.
The house had everything we needed and more and Brooke was very helpful and great to deal with 😊
This property had everything we could have hoped for - hammocks, ping pong, beautifully furnished and comfortable beds, well-appointed kitchen with some basic supplies. The location was perfect - everything we wanted to do and see was nearby. It also feels secluded and rural, with regular visits from kangaroos. The host, Brooke, was really helpful and responsive.
