About this property

Chidlow, Lake Leschenaultia, cycling & walking, Book the Spa & Sauna, cost extra

We welcome you to stay at our peaceful, private bush retreat and escape the stress of the city. We are in the Perth border.
Lake Leschenaultia is a short 800m walk from the unit. Take a picnic and enjoy a day of swimming, walking or cycling. It is a gentle 3km walk around the lake. There are BBQ and picnic areas that can be used. There is a cafe and shop on site if you forgot to pack food. The children can enjoy a fun playground area and the more adventurous can hire a kayak or paddle board and have fun on the lake. There is the newly installed mountain bike tracks at the back of Lake Leschenaultia that are for beginner to intermediate level and are proving to be very challenging and fun courses. There are many walking and cycling trails in the area so make sure to bring your cycles and some good sturdy shoes.
Villa Sittella is situated on a 5 acre bush block that is shared with the owners.
You will have complete privacy during your stay as the villa has its own private driveway access and parking area.

Nice setting.
Property is nice and impressive decor, clean and well presented. Dogs barking made it hard for us to know if they were loose or not during the ins and out as we can see them from a distance.

Villa sitella
The house was at a great location- within 8-10 mins drive of several neighbouring town taverns, shops and the Noble Falls. Short walk to the lake. House was welcoming and clean with pancake mix, milk and goodies on arrival. The fireplace heated the house very well in winter and the hot tub was a highlight for the kids.

Great for a weekend getaway
Stayed with a group of friends over the weekend and the property was lovely. The owners were great with communication. The spa on the chilly nights was so relaxing! We would definitely stay again. Thanks Mark and Fayanna for your hospitality.

About the host

Hosted by Mark and Fayanna Sowerby

Host profile image
Your hosts are Mark and Fayanna. We are happy to welcome guests onto our property and to enjoy the peaceful bush retreat atmosphere that we also value and love.
We are parents to two children and grandparents to two adorable grandchildren. We are really enjoying this chapter of our lives and are thankful to be young enough to do lots of fun activities with them all.
Mark is very active and enjoys most sporting activities. He will happily share with you the local mountain biking tracks etc. Fayanna is very craft focused and enjoys almost all craft projects. She is really looking forward to the pottery shed being completed and learning a new skill. At this stage we are motivated to complete our home and property renovations and to establish our business.
We are both very much into working hard and playing hard and after a good day of work or play we love to relax in our own private spa/ sauna area.
We are happy to give you complete privacy during your stay but are also available to answer any questions you may have.
We look forward to meeting our guests at Villa Sittella.

Why they chose this property

We have loved the Chidlow area and had been looking for property to purchase here for around 8 years.
We have enjoyed going to Lake Leschenaultia over the years with our family and are very happy to have purchased so close by.
The property already had the purpose built accommodation Villa on it and we are excited to start this new adventure in hospitality.
We are still renovating the main house and property and have many good ideas for future developments.

What makes this property unique

Our guests so far have really enjoyed use of the private spa area. The executive spa has numerous jets and has a waterall and volcano feature. There are coloured lights that can be put into many sequences and there is also a function to hook into your phone to play music from within the spa walls. You may choose to sit quietly in the spa and listen to and watch the local birds flitting and foraging through the trees. Relax in the outdoor spa and enjoy the beautiful night sky that you just don't see living in the city.
The other unique feature are the numerous blue and white LED lights spaced throughout the bush surrounding the unit and down the driveway from the road entrance to parking area. These are set automatically to come on at sun set and to turn off at 11pm.
Villa Sittella is set in a very private and peaceful bush setting where you can just relax in the spa and look at the star studded sky or you can choose to go out for a meal and come home to watch a movie or TV. In winter you can enjoy evenings with the log burner heating the unit and creating a wonderful ambience.
Relax in the upstairs lounge area and look out through the double height windows into the native bush surroundings.
Your days can be filled with blissful and relaxing activities or spent on exciting adventures where you come home exhausted. The choice is yours.
Enjoy beautiful Villa Sittella and all it has to offer.
