The Tanah Marah came highly recommended by our friend and it did not disappoint! We loved the sunrise and sunset overseeing the lake from the Verandah, taking walks in the bushland, and seeing sheep and birds roaming around. It is clear the owner takes great pride in upkeeping this vast property. And, it's only 10 min drive from town! They were right, the 2km of dirt road was worth it! We also loved the comfy beds, modern and well-equipped kitchen (oven, dish washer, and BBQ included), great amenities (great coffee, eco-friendly lotions, sunscreen, extra blankets, fluffy bathrobes), baby friendliness (high chair, plastic bowls, cups and plates, baby bathtub, extra baby cot), and great laundry facilities on site. One could also play tennis, golf, and kayak on the lake. We didn't try the boat or kayak as we didn't want our little kids go on the lake without life jackets. But confident swimmers can try. We were able to truly relax and were giddy the whole time. Thank you for opening the doors to us, Linda, Lucy and families!

Its a very beautiful area, well kept, quiet, and private. The owner is very welcoming and natural. Kayaks, paddle boards, tennis courts, and golf are included. Friendly sheep and cows and food for them provided. The lake right in front of the house is stunning. Kitchen has everything that we need. BBQ and fireplace outside. Seating area outside with a table and cushions. Lawn super well-maintained, and nice to walk on. Working TV with an antenna, had usb ports to watch our own movies, or they had dvds provided, or books to read. Milk in the fridge. Double shower in one of the bathrooms for 2 people. Aircon worked perfectly. Blinds for more privacy. Was told that there is a washing machine and a dryer, didnt need to use it but its an awesome addition in case staying longer.

Would be happier to get more coffee. Also, the kitchen might need some blinds too. Somebody was walking in the dark with a torch, felt a bit awkward. To me personally, pillows were too high profile so the second night I ended up folding some blanket and using it as a pillow and slept well. Meant to bring my own pillow but forgot. ------ >None of these comments are a deal breaker. Just suggestios and thoughts.

If there was a heaven on earth, I am pretty sure Tanah Marah comes close to that description. Where do I even start? First of all, the view when you open your chalet facing the pristine and beautiful lake in the morning sunlight along with the smell of fresh grass definitely takes away stress and brings you back to Nature. Secondly the support and friendliness of the host, especially Lindy and Lucy. Of course the fury support friends Panda, Annie and Milly. I never had a pet in my life, but the fury friends will make you felt like you had them your whole life. There is a stream of activities that will keep you in touch with nature. Might it be running, kayaking in the lake, feeding the sheeps and cows or just hiking. You can also see kangaroo and other wild animals. Truly a testament of great hospitality and great Australian nature. 3 days 2 nights were too short for our family at the end. Would come back to this place 100% if we are ever back In Margaret River. I would highly suggest anyone visiting the area to book Tanah Marah in a heartbeat!

Truly nothing, everything was lovely. Only issue if you can’t fully “disconnect” from the world. There is no service in the chalet itself but there’s is a 24hr quick Wi-Fi in the visitor Center. Hence not suitable if you can’t truly “disconnect “ . I actually loved it as it forced me to disconnect and truly just enjoy the experience. Something I didn’t experience since I was young.

This property is perfect, it is situated far enough away from the main road that you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere but close enough that it is easy to explore the surrounding areas. From the moment we arrived our host Lucy made us feel like we were part of the Tanah Marah family and she loves sharing her property and its story with you. The accommodation is excellent with everything you need and an amazing view that will have you wanting to stay longer.

Having to leave. Nothing, this place is a hidden gem.

It was one of our best stays ever - great scenic views and lots of activities for the little ones - they got to feed cows and sheep and had a go Marron fishing. Our chalet overlooked a beautiful lake, and Tanah Marah is relatively close by to Margaret River town, Yallingup, and Busselton. Rory, Linda, and Lucy are great hosts and took great care to make sure we had all we needed and took us on a little tour around the estate and learnt about nature. We would love to stay here again!

We belong to the "hard mattress camp", so the soft beds that some people prefer were not our favourite!

The chalet is huge with big bathrooms. There are mini golf, tennis court and kayak available. ( we didn’t use these facilities as it was raining during our stay.) We were visited by a few goats.

It’s at the rural area with poor WiFi in the room (actually none). The mobile signal was weak too. We were warned about the issue of ants which really visited the master room toilet. A bottle of wine was given as apology.

Location was stunning- beautiful setting, flora abd fauna including a great guided tour by the host, lovely reception, nice treats, superb cleanness- felt like home. We simply loved it!

teenagers would have preferred a better wifi in the room, but I am not sure 😉 - it helps everyone to relax and disconnect!

The place is absolutely beautiful. Super spacious and luxurious and tastefully decorated. We love the house, the field outside the house, the lake, everything. And there is a dishwasher in the unit which makes our stay really great, no time wasted to wash dishes after cooking

No wifi, so it is really hard to keep kids entertained at night time when outside is dark and they cannot play

Exceptional resort with own lake and own golf course and very spacious cottages. Very nicely located in the forrest 5 min drive from Margaret River. Linda and her family are great hosts that took perfectly care of us. Always very friendly and helpful and even gave us Christmas decorations to celebrate Christmas Eve and a nice basket full of presents from local suppliers. Can only recommend this place - especially for families.

Wifi and mobile reception is quite poor in the cottages - but good if you like to relax ;)

The location of this beautiful property was perfect. Very secluded amongst the forest, yet only 5 minutes from the centre of Margaret River. The accommodation was great for a family of four with two separate wings either side of the main living area. The hosts were so lovely to deal with (even when we locked ourselves out of the cabin!)

The only negative to this property is the 2km unsealed road. Had we known about this, we would have bought a different car.
