About the host
Hosted by Susan Randazzo
For Susan and Franco, Serenity Gully began as a dream to simply find a few acres with a get away cottage within reasonable driving distance from Perth. When Susan discovered glamping eco tents during a Google search, suddenly the hunt became about peaceful land with stunning views, near a quintessential Australian country town with great amenities.
18 months and 20,000 kilometers later, they drove past a 'for sale' sign on their way to view another property in Kangaroo Gully. It took mere minutes to realize they'd found the perfect spot — breathtaking views, complete isolation, and a wonderous jarrah forest. With the land much larger than they'd imagined at 478 acres, they knew guests would love the adventure of the unrestricted exploration of this magnificent property.
After spending time in historic Bridgetown enjoying the town's charm and wonderful restaurants and cafes, they fell even more in love. Erecting a couple of bell tents wasn't on the agenda though. Only the most luxurious experience possible would do justice to this magical place. Not only do the tents deliver 5-star experience in eco-style, but each is sited for utmost privacy and peace. Every comfort, from the furnishings and cloud-soft mattress, outdoor bath, to even the crockery and glassware was carefully considered. The focus is on self-sustaining and minimal footprint with solar power, water harvesting and even recycling of scraps with vermiculture (worm composting).
Susan says, "The first time you view a sunset here is akin to a mystical encounter. As dusk descends, suddenly dozens of kangaroos appear, birds call goodnight from the trees and the sun turns the towering jarrahs golden red. Slowly pins of light appear in the blue-black sky, and there is revealed the majestic Milky Way and a carpet of twinkling stars. You've just experienced Serenity Gully magic."

Why they chose this property
Just look at the pictures. It's completely stunning Jarrah forests and native Australian bush only three and a half hours from Perth or one and a half hours from Busselton Airport. There's nothing like this property in WA for hill and valley views and isolation available for guests.
What makes this property unique
We're 100% eco, off-grid with 478 acres of private forest for you to explore. Unlike most other luxury glamping offers in Western Australia and even wider Australia, our tents are distanced from each other and nestled into the forest for complete privacy, peace and seclusion.
