The property was more of a family home ,just loved the decor and the extra touches that made a very comfortable stay ,we would have stayed longer with hindsight.A much underarated property in a fabulous situation
We had a lovely stay at Boranup Cottage in amongst the trees & the birds.
The cottage had everything we needed & was certainly comfortable.
It is a nice getaway for peace & tranquility.
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.
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.
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.

Lovely cottage
We had a lovely weekend ,a lovely funky stone cottage in the Boranup Forrest
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.
A tranquil, down to earth retreat from the hustle and bustle
Well equipped cottage, waking up to the sounds of nature was bliss.
Jane is a great host who was very receptive when required.

A lovely earthy cottage, warm and comfortable in a beautiful setting. very peaceful. We loved being
A lovely earthy cottage, warm and comfortable in a beautiful setting. very peaceful. We loved being able to walk the path to the cafe in the mornings for a coffee.
Well equipped cottage that is perfect for 3-4 people. We were glad we had the wood fire as the nights were quite cold. The location is perfect - 20min away from the Margaret River hustle surrounded by peaceful woods.
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!

Lovely cottage- nice and quite.
Was a great little place for the 2 of us. Located in the heart of the Boranup forest and caves area. 20min Margaret river.
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!
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!
Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The kitchen and house was very well equipped with everything I needed. Master bed was super comfy. The storm was raging outside, but the rammed earth construction makes the house safe and warm. The fire was a bonus but not really needed as the house was so well insulated. If you are looking for something off the track, and tucked up in the bush, then this is perfect. Phone reception is lousy, but for me, that was a bonus!!
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!
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!!
