Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Be aware when booking Rose Cottage it has aged considerably since the photos on the site. Also note the photos on the listing cover multiple properties. We were very shocked at the size and condition of the Cottage. The side sliding doors were unlocked when we arrived with no lock on the side sliding mesh door.
The front door lock was very loose and felt like one good pull would have it open.
The property is much smaller than looks in photos and very tired.
We didn’t feel safe here and did not stay.

Great place to stay. Excellent location. Pub is fantastic. Would definitely stay again.
Was nice staying in the yurt-style unit as a quirky change from the norm. Great cooking facilities. A good number of local attractions. Short walk to the Ballardean pub (although the pub’s food was disappointing).
Would stay here again. Want to visit again soon.
I stayed in the Rose Cottage on this property and it was great! The most noticeable aspect of it was how well-equipped the accommodation was. WiFi was hit and miss but that wasn't a big deal.
A old cottage adapted into a comfortable studio-style accommodation. Has an open fire which would be cosy in winter but creates a lingering smoky smell in the cottage (which moderates after you open up the doors and windows). Good value for money and very close to Girraween NP and a family friendly (newish) pub serving good food.
James Farmhouse is an old home with plenty of room and some creature comforts. The wood fireplace saw use as 4 couples enjoyed a cool long weekend. Ample room in the lounge and dining. Nice gardens. The house had 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets and a meals table in the kitchen meant chats whilst meals were cooked. Plenty of cooking gear and options. Rear drinks area. Walk to the tavern or shop. Both basic but you could get a meal (book on weekends).
Well laid out accomodation, lots of firewood/kindling to keep us warm (as well as air con), very short walk to local eateries and short drive to wineries. We chose not to cook but from what I saw the kitchen was well kitted out. Highly recommend.

A rustic cottage with everything you need.
We stayed in the Rose Cottage which looked a bit dated and rustic, and did not look very attractive on the outside. Once we went in, it was fine - clean, comfortable and cozy. Although we did not use the fire place, we could imagine it would be lovely in winter.

It was cozy and very well appointed, fire place added a great touch of comfort. Easy walk to food and tavern. Close to all the wineries
MJ Yurts was so clean we thought it was brand new. Beautiful and very well stocked. The yurt was a first class accommodation! Owners were so friendly and welcoming. Lots to do in the area with many wineries and Giraween Park close by. Would highly recommend staying there.
