WA Roadtrip, perfect stopover in Albany

Everything you'll require for a relaxed stopover, in a beautifully finished property. Our only regret was we stayed for 2 nights, when we should have planned for more. Jill was very responsive to any queries we had in the time prior to or actually at the property

Comfortable home stay in the centre of Albany

A lovely home within easy distance of all the attractions in Albany. We enjoyed the contrast of old with the new. Everything was to a high standard, truly a home from home.

Great home in Albany

We booked this home as part of a trip to WA. The house is very well appointed and is as per the photographs in the listing. The property is spacious with 3 bedrooms, a huge kitchen diner and a separate lounge. Best of all there is a lovely covered patio area / garden at the rear which was great for the warm evenings. The house also has its own parking drive which could probably accommodate 3 cars. It is located next to the town centre which made all the shops and restaurants within easy walking distance. Although it is next the the town centre we were not disturbed by any noise as it is in a very quiet neighbourhood. Albany is also a great base for visiting this area of the south coast of WA. The owner Jill was very efficient with both the check in process and answering any questions, always responding promptly. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this property and would recommend this for couples or families.

Perfect for young families

This property was comfortable, had character, felt safe and the kids loved the outdoor deck and garden. So close to everything in town, we could just walk everywhere which was perfect for our 6 month old who took naps on the go. Because there werent any stairs, we could really switch off and relax while our kids played.

The perfect holiday home

We have stayed in many holiday homes over the years and this has definitely been our favourite. The house has everything you could need and more, with so many extras provided. We didn't expect to need the air conditioner, but one day the temperature in Albany reached 44 degrees and we were very glad of it. Communication was great and Jill very generously refunded a night's accommodation after I messed up our booking. It was late notice and she was not obliged to make any refund at all. We enjoyed watching the birds in the garden from the covered outdoor area. Location is great, an easy walk to shops, cafes, restaurants. We couldn't have asked for better accommodation.

Girls Getaway

This property was perfect for our over 40+ girls weekend. The property was fantastic. It was spotlessly clean, newly renovated,had really comfy beds and had everything you need for a relaxing stay. It was central to everything and walking distance from lots of food and retail. It is situated in a lovely quiet street. We would highly recommend this property.

Brilliant

Our stay at the Castle in Albany was amazing. This has to be the best appointed accommodation we have stayed in. The furniture was great, appliances excellent, it was warm and cozy and overall just finished to a very high level. We'll definitely be staying here again on our next trip down to Albany. 100% would recommend staying here
