Peace in the Porongerups.

The instructions for finding the property were easy to follow. The property has an excellent view. It is well equipped to deal with the cold weather we experienced with electric blankets and air conditioning. The kitchen is well equipped and ingredients for a delicious breakfast were provided. Also in a good location to access the local walks and climbs. A really enjoyable stay.

Brilliant!

The property is a dream - backed right up against the national park, you can see Castle Rock Skywalk on the ridge line! Our boys, both under 10, loved exploring the farm, which has magnificent views all the way to the Albany coast line. Magic sunsets on offer every night from the expansive second storey balcony. Equally close to Mt Barker, Albany, and Bluff Knoll, we really appreciated how central the property was. We really didn’t need to bring anything other than clothes and food - bedding was really comfortable (electric blankets). Although asked to be careful with water usage, showers were always hot with great pressure - so good after hiking around all day! Jo and John put together a continental breakfast for us for the first morning, which was not expected - thank you. We ended up buying some produce before leaving, honey from their hives, garlic, Kalamata olives, chard, tomato sauce and apple cucumbers! Couldn’t fault our stay! Fantastic!

Jilba Cottage review

This house was a simple, clean and relaxing. We enjoyed our stay because of the nice views and the fresh farm food was a nice addition. The one thing we felt was missing was a Smart TV. There aren’t any shops nearby, but the location is very quiet and peaceful.
