The property was extremely tidy & clean.
We had a lovely relaxing time on the property which was beautiful. If you are a grass tree lover, well you are in for a treat.
Everything was supplied with a little welcome package of freshly picked fruit, cherry tomatoes, milk & eggs. It was great just bringing what we needed for the weekend.
The hosts Marita & Ian were absolutely amazing, could not do enough for you & were super friendly. They even picked a box of fruit for us to take home to the kids.
Thank you for making our little getaway stress free 🙂

A wonderfully picturesque location in Balingup. Fantastic for a battery charge or relaxation after a big day.
Hosts Marita and Ian are terrific hosts.
The gardens are magnificent and great for exploring and a leisurely walk or just sit and enjoy the outlook in one of many hidden locations
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome by the hosts. Marita and Ian are the perfect hosts, so easy to talk with and know how to make things so welcoming with all the little personal touches they put in place. The Rustic Retreat gave us everything we wanted in spades and the location was excellent being just off the South West Highway and equidistant between Donnybrook and Bridgetown. We were able to totally relax and take in the wonderful views from the front of the Retreat. Our sadness at having to go home was counter-balanced by the sight of seven, tiny, newly hatched ducklings down by the ponds as we left. Thank you Marita and Ian.

Why they chose this property
After living and working in the Kimberley for the past 25 years we decided to retire in Balingup and enjoy a cooler climate and rural life style.
What makes this property unique
A unique statement of our property is a large area of ancient grass trees (over 1000) They look spectacular with the sun streaming through the tall jarrah trees, where red tail cockatoo's are often seen. Walking through this area is easily accessible.
