About this property

Accommodation on the escarpment of Perth Hills - incredible views and sunsets

At the intersection of comfort, travel and experience lies Vermillion Skies, where the energies of simple luxury blends with nature to vibrate at a higher frequency of quietness, peace and calm. Where you can relax, unwind and enjoy the energies of the surroundings and take in the views of the Perth City Skyline and Swan Coastal Plain. Facing west, you will get to witness stunning sunsets, where the setting sun turns the sky a Vermillion Red.
Just a 15 minute drive to the famous Swan Valley and all that it has to offer for the visitor, fabulous wineries and restaurants to choose from. Also close to historical Guildford and the oldest 'pub' in Perth The Rose and Crown which we recommend.
Midland train station gets you into Perth in 20 minutes, or you can stay on the train until end of journey which takes you to Fremantle.

A wonderful stay
This property is one of the best we have stayed at. It was spacious, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Fabian provided lots of extras which were much appreciated. The location was perfect for watching the stunning sunsets over Perth. We would thoroughly recommend this property.

Amazing Holiday House
We had a wonderful relaxing weekend in this superb holiday house. The owner went over and above to ensure that everything was supplied for us with such loving detail. The views were incredible and there were so many locations to enjoy them. I would highly recommend this holiday house for any couple and we will definately be back!

Location Stay - Glad we found it
We booked as we had a concert to go to and this was the closest, I could get available. Concert was good but we got soaked and didn't want to stay any longer so went back to this beautiful property, dried off and went out for Dinner locally, came back and had a nice night in. Stunning views for Breakfast. Highly recommend, the little extra touches were what made it even better.

Good for the soul
From the minute you turn into the driveway you know this is special. Glad we brought along binoculars the view is amazing we could watch the planes coming in and landing, sunset was fantastic! The Garden is great, the Gazebo is a treat. Although the bnb is under owners home, it is still private, beautifully appointed with everything you need. Awesome BNB thanks for sharing it Fabian. 💜

Awesome. Wonderful!
From sleep to the stunning sunset view to the well equipped accommodation, my wife and I had a relaxing and restful time. Fabian took every effort to ensure that the property is well maintained. Attention to details and making sure that it is a comfortable stay for us. The hut just outside the property was awesome. Spent every evening just to soak in the cool breeze and watch the sunset. We’re thankful for the opportunity. Hope to be back here again someday. Wonderful experience throughout.

Exceptional in All Regards - including value
Could not speak more highly of this property and experience - it is truly immaculate with amazing panoramic views over the city from every window. We arrived and were immediately greeted and shown around the property by Fabian, with a complimentary bottle of Red Wine and breakfast platter in the fridge. Watched the beautiful sunset that evening from the private gazebo and when we retired for the evening, the full-wall windows of the bedroom revealed the twinkling lights of the city. Overall, given some tough cards life has thrown at us recently, we genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience in such a nice place, with great views and character for cheaper than a hotel. Can’t recommend highly enough, thanks again Fabian!

Lovely place to stay
This property was a lot better than I expected. The first thing you will notice is the stunning views over the city on offer. When you go inside you realise what a large place it is. Everything was very tidy and very comfortable. I really liked the complimentary fresh orange juice, fruits and muffins. It’s a shame it was an overnight stay on this occasion, but we’ll certainly be back. Thank you Fabian
