TWO ADULTS ONLY - NO CHILDREN OR PETS PLEASE.

Get back to nature and unwind in this tranquil, sweet little bush cabin on the banks of the Blackwood River. Situated between Nannup & Balingup, Kookaburra Cottage is part of unique Fern Gulley Retreat.

Breathe the country air, watch the wildlife, enjoy sundowners on the veranda overlooking trees & river, read a book, stroll around the property, visit local attractions or nearby towns, go walking, cycling, or just chill out and relax.

The cabin is part of 'Fern Gulley Retreat' in a peaceful & picturesque rural area in Southwest WA. You'll be in the country but just 20 minutes' drive from the closest town of Nannup - a popular tourist destination for nature lovers, cyclists, weekend motorcycle enthusiasts & walkers which has several cafes, a pub, brewery/restaurant, small supermarket & a few shops (opening hours are limited). When planning your holiday be sure to visit the Experience Nannup website.

Staying in the cabin is a gentle, back-to-nature experience with no washing machine, no clothes dryer, no noise, no dishwasher & no city hassles!

PLEASE NOTE THAT MOBILE RECEPTION & WIFI ARE ONLY AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE TELSTRA & A SMART PHONE WITH 'HOTSPOT' CAPABILITY!

However, you DO have most other creature comforts - electricity; gas hot water; kingsize bed with doonahs & electric blankets; en-suite bathroom with privacy screen; reverse cycle air conditioner/heater plus two electric 'log' fireplace heaters; indoor & outdoor dining areas; microwave; mini-electric oven; air-fryer; gas stovetop (4 burners); electric outdoor BBQ; crockery, cutlery, glassware, cooking utensils; comfy couch/sofa bed in living room; wrap-around scenic verandah with outdoor settings and cocktail bar; birdfeeder with special birdfood; and magical views of the tree-lined valley leading down to the Blackwood River.

For your entertainment, there is a TV/DVD player, a selection of books, movies, cards & board games; resident alpacas & geese; visiting kangaroos & emus; and beautiful tiny blue wrens and cheeky parrots who come for treats.

The cabin could be called "McCubbin Cottage" as the walls are decorated with some of the best-known bush paintings of this much loved turn-of-the-century artist.

If you're a romantic, for a special treat turn the main lights in the bedroom ON half an hour before you go to bed. When you retire & turn off the lights, look up to see a sparkling night sky!


You'll have access to your cabin & surrounds plus six acres of private wooded river frontage 'common area' which form part of Fern Gulley Retreat.

The valley behind the cabin is ideal for a gentle stroll; to watch the visiting wildlife & colourful birds; or to just admire the view from your verandah. When the Blackwood River is up you can go for a dip or maybe even catch a fish!

Please don't touch or feed any of the wildlife (other than at the birdfeeder where special food is provided for parrots & wrens). Thanks!

There is a resident caretaker on-site in case of emergencies, but please do not go onto their property unless invited to do so. Thanks!
