The house has a rambling quality, which makes it ideal for large groups wanting a special retreat. There are often multi generational family catch ups, which is lovely to see. We are not suited for events, parties, bucks/hens gatherings, weddings or raucous weekends. This is a beautiful, peaceful property and we like to provide the country/homely escape away from the noise and bustle of city life, to our guests. You will be welcomed and greeted shortly after your arrival and I'm nearby on the property if needed during your stay. Set amongst bush, with glorious evening light on the magnificent karri trees, you can relax on the front veranda and listen to the sounds of nature, with kestrels, wagtails, blue wrens and frogs all around. When the wind comes from the West, you can hear the crashing of the surf on Redgate Beach just over the ridge. The house has the wonderful insulating qualities of straw - cool in the summer, warm in the winter. A wood heater with firewood provided will ensure your warmth and cosiness whatever the weather! The house itself is spacious, with several living areas. Wifi, 2 TVs, a fully equipped kitchen, with plentiful good quality pots, pans and appliances, an enormous marri wood dining table, beautiful lead-light windows and comfortable beds. There are 6 large bedrooms - 5 with queen beds (one is on a loft), and a 6th bedroom with twin beds. The enormous upstairs lounge can be closed off to be a 7th bedroom with mattresses to make up beds on the timber floor. There are 3 bathrooms with loos, so no need to queue! There is a table tennis table in the back games room/shed at the back of the house.. A short drive down Redgate Road takes you to the wonderful beaches of Redgate, or head to the bright lights of Margaret River only 15 minutes away. The prestigious wineries, Arlewood, Leeuwin Estate, Voyager Estate, Xanadu, Cape Mentelle and Redgate are 5 minutes away. Activities Walk some of the Cape to Cape, or bring your mountain bikes for a blast through the famous Margaret River trails. There is a local surf school, and plenty of wind-surfing or kite surfing. Fishing, whale-watching, caving, rock-climbing or abseiling - everything is within easy reach. Take a Winery Tour, climb the Leeuwin Lighthouse - whether you want to fill your days with activity, or nothing at all - this is the place to do it! LEAVERS and young adults - We do accept younger crews, but under some fairly stringent conditions. We've been very pleased with most of our younger groups, and believe in giving them a fair go. There will be a returnable bond payable of $100 each. This is to be paid in cash on arrival and will be returned in cash on your departure after a satisfactory inspection of the house by ourselves. Our number policy of a maximum 15 people is firm with this age group. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* ## Property amenities ### Internet -

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This is not “glamorous” accommodation by any means, so if you want to the more “rustic, lived in” style, this is perfect. ##### Marianne E.

May 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Quirky House Suitable for Large Groups The Straw House is set in an adorable town called Witchcliffe, a little south of Margaret River. Set on acreage, it provides a place away from the noise and encourages you to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet, especially on the front verandah. The best place to enjoy your morning coffee and breakfast. The house is large with numerous bedrooms and a large room upstairs you can turn into an additional one. There are also three bathrooms, which means no waiting! A bonus with so many people under one roof. There is also a table tennis and dart board for those wishing for a little friendly competition. The kitchen is very well equipped, which is a bonus, as usually you need to bring your own equipment if you wish to do anything but basic meals. The house is well stocked with the basics and clean. The welcome bottle of wine and chocolates were unexpected but appreciated and enjoyed. DJ was a welcoming and attentive host, and easy to communicate with. And I can't write a review without mentioning how Ivy was the highlight of our stay. The bestest doggo who deserved all the pats. The only minus for us was the unsealed gravel roads leading to the property. While I personally didn't have an issue with this, some other members of my group did and would have liked to know before booking the property. But all up, a lovely property set in beautiful surroundings that can accommodate large groups easily. ##### Michelle T. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda T.
