Horrible experience, left after 1 night.
The property had no mobile phone service - which posed safety issues. I had to drive 20 minutes into Nanup township to make a call.
The grass surrounding the property in the photos didn't exist, instead dry, harsh prickles made it impossible for my dog to walk around the property.
Upon my arrival at the property, I was greeted by an incessant beeping coming from under the house that continued throughout the night until the following day when I drove into the Nanup town to get reception and was able to tell them about the beeping!? Apparently this happens all the time! I just need to hold down this button. Why wasn't I informed of this issue prior?
Mainly due to the property having no mobile phone connection, and the prickles, I had to leave after one sleepless night, more exhausted than when I left. Such a shame as the houseitself is lovely.

Nice, Quiet, lived-in Cabin
The cabin was nice over all; clean, new, with most essentials supplied. There were a few issues that we were not aware of until we arrived and we were advertised otherwise. The air conditioner in the main living room was broken and had been taped up. The back sliding door would not stay on its tracks and the glass door with it was heavy and difficult to move and lock. There are also large dents in the wall beside one of the children’s beds and another behind the couch in the living room, again, did not cause us any issues but were there upon arrival. We also could not find any wheelie bins on the property so ended up taking some rubbish with us to alleviate rubbish concerns.
There are bats living in the roof, which didn’t bother us but may cause concern for others.
We did experience some amazing interactions with wildlife (Kangaroos, Emus, blue wrens) and this spot was MAGNIFICENT for star gazing.
