Beautiful Boranup!
This was our second stay at the beautiful Boranup Cottage. It was just as perfect as the first time. An idyllic and peaceful getaway. The setting is beautiful and the cottage is well-equipped and warm. The beds are so comfy. We were grateful for the generous supply of firelighters and matches as the evenings were cooler, so we enjoyed the log fire. The kitchen has many extra supplies which is always a bonus. There is an endless supply of fresh towels, soaps, etc too. The shower is hot and spacious. Jane was very prompt to help us find access to the wifi on arrival when we needed assistance. The best thing is that we can bring our fur baby and she loved her holiday as much as we did! We will be sure to be back as we are totally in love with this cottage and the Boranup forest. Thank you Jane for hosting us.

Stunning cottage in Karri forest
Boranup Cottage is unique, quirky, comfortable and peaceful. We loved the eclectic decor and furnishings, the cosey fire and being surrounded by trees and the night sky. Jane was super helpful and friendly, quick to respond and answer any queries. It's in an excellent location for exploring the caves and everything between the capes. Highly recommend staying here.

Family getaway
Our stay at Boranup cottage was a wonderful getaway and we thoroughly enjoyed the serenity and peace of the forest around us. The cottage was well equipped and had everything we needed. We also appreciated being able to take our 'fur-child' with! The only thing I would say is that the mattresses on the sleeper couches were very thin and not very comfortable for my children to sleep on. But we would love to visit again!

Boranup Hideway
A little tired in its presentation, very poor cork floor tiles, damaged fly screens, microwave not working (located new unit in storage area and installed it) BBQ didn’t get hot enough to cook. No door to vanity room, Bedroom door difficult to close/open hence noisy. Its a shame as the location is idyllic, a few less flies and flying ants would have been good, the proximity to a delightful cafe was a bonus after doing the tourist thing each day, Would we book again, probably yes but earlier in the year,

A Fabulous Location
If you want to see the Boronup Forest this is the perfect location; great spot close to both Margaret River and Augusta but in a quiet bush setting. The cottage was well appointed and comfortable for our group of 5 adults and 3 dogs.

Beautiful forest stay
Stunning setting in a delightful cottage property. The facilities provided everything we needed, including logs for the fire during our winter stay. Dog friendly was a bonus… we wouldn’t stay without our doggo so it was great to have access to such a nice place.

Boranup cosy Forrest retreat
We loved being in this little haven with its fabulous hot tub- comfy lounge and kitchen was well supplied.It is picturesque and private. Our dog loved it too. Firewood was all chopped and ready to go. The third room was really more like a bathroom/ laundry and would have been very cold to sleep in at this time of year if needing to use the extra bed- we were happy in the two bedrooms provided. I would have loved an electric blanket ☺️to make it even warmer as it was a very cold week. We would definitely come back and highly recommend. Jane was very helpful when I contacted her. Thank you.

Dog Friendly Cottage in Boranup Karri Forest
The cottage is situated in partially cleared forest, just south of the Margaret River township. Kangaroos and emus are often heard and sometimes seen - very exciting for our dog! Early morning walks through the planted native gardens are wonderful - the flowers of grevilleas and banksias and hakeas and other flowering bushes and trees attract a myriad of birds - also exciting for our dog! Boranup Cottage is a very peaceful and relaxing holiday destination, that is also well situated for visits to all the tourist and natural experiences in the Margaret River/Augusta region. It is highly recommended, especially by Pippa, our Border Terrier!!

Cosy cottage in tranquil setting
Beautiful location and the cottage was cosy and well-appointed with everything we needed. Very relaxing holiday and the kids had a ball. We were impressed with how the heat from the log fire permeated through the rammed earth and warmed the whole cottage. One point to note is that the third 'bedroom' is also the laundry/bathroom, containing the spa and the washing machine/dryer, and the beds are foldaway beds. It wasn't really an issue for us because we had a toddler in our portacot in there, but if you need 3 bedrooms this may be a consideration. Overall a lovely stay and we didn't really want to go home!

Amazing forest location
Accuracy of online listing exactly as it looks. A fantastic rustic feel cottage with a relaxing atmosphere surrounded by the Boranup forest filled with birds of all kinds which come and visit on the doorstep. Perfect location for daily visits to Margs, the caves and the must see snorkel site at Redgate beach. We'll come again!

Peaceful Getaway
The property was situated in a quiet area of Boranup Forest and nestled back enough from Caves Road that it was completely silent which is exactly what we wanted. Very tranquil, lovely bird song to wake you up in the morning and the gallery and adjacent Pies and Ale restaurant were stand outs and places we recommend to visit. We also go engaged on this trip at the close location of Hamelin Bay - so this trip was extra special for us!

Home away from home
Feels like a home away from home. A place you could stay for weeks. Did not know you could stay this close to the Boranup forest. Surrounded by fairy wrens and honey eaters. Private from other properties. A wonderful place to bring family and dogs! Thank you for having us!
