Farm Cottage in the Ferguson Valley

It’s nearly February and it’s the perfect time to book a summer escape
The kids have gone back to school so it’s a great opportunity to enjoy this quieter time of the year. The cottage is well appointed and is air conditioned to keep you cool . You can take a dip in the lake or go for a kayak. The warmer balmy nights means more time spent sitting out on the deck with a wine or two. The garden is abundant with native bird life especially the gorgeous blue wrens. The lake has Redfin and you can try your luck.. just ask and we’ll provide you with a rod and lures.. or you can bring your own.
We have two miniature ponies, Rita and Gidget and two retired quarter horses mares Chocolate and Lily.. they all lovely friendly horses.
The space
We have provided everything you need to have the most relaxing experience during your stay. The cottage has a large open plan living area . The kitchen is fully equipped and the lounge room has a comfy modular lounge suite for you to stretch out and relax. The tv is a smart tv so you can watch your favourite streaming channels using the free wifi. The day bed is a perfect reading nook, with reading lamp and close to the fire it’s a cosy spot to read and relax. A coffee machine is provided in the well equiped kitchen so you don’t miss out on your morning coffee. The outdoor seating is another comfy space to sit back and enjoy the view. The light filled house backs onto native bush and kangaroos often come close at night to graze on the lawn. You can wander along many bush trails found at the back of the property and during spring you will find beautiful wild flowers and native orchids.

Other things to note
Children are welcome , we just ask they are supervised at all times especially around the water and animals
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Just what we wanted
If I chose two words to describe this property, they would be "welcoming" and "generous". We entered to find a comfortable, cozy, well furnished place with lots of little extras to make us feel welcome. The location is terrific for a quiet stay, with good access to larger, busier tourist towns. Margaret River is only a little over an hour away, while Bunbury, with its excellent Bunbury Farmers' Market and large supermarkets, is only half an hour away for those who wish to self cater. It's also close to the Ferguson Valley, with quirky Gnomesville and many wineries and breweries to visit and enjoy lunch, and for dinner Boyanup Tavern (excellent pizzas) and Dardanup Tavern are less than 15 minutes away. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, utensils and cookware, even an espresso maker and coffee. Our lovely hostess had left some farm fresh eggs, wine, milk and chocolates in the fridge and a platter of limes and avocados on the table, as well as a range of basic supplies in the cupboards and freezer. The furniture was comfortable and the bedding soft and warm. There were plenty of towels and blankets if needed, with liquid soap supplied at the sinks and in the shower. Books and games were available, as well as a TV. Phone reception is spotty but there is good WiFi. We loved watching the birds at the feeder (food supplied) and birdbath. I was unable to walk in the nearby forest, but if you're mobile it looks inviting. I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return

We had the most relaxing few days at Carringal with a group of friends in the Ferguson Valley. The gist Jonine was so lovely,friendly and accomodating. The cottage was beautiful,clean and very comfortable and we loved sitting on the veranda watching the sheep and wrens. Loved picking fresh blueberries from the vege patch too. Thanks Jonine, we'll be back.

Simply beautiful
What an amazing stay we had! The photos and description definitely do not do this accommodation justice. It was so peaceful and beautiful to wake up. My 6yo loved waking up to the animals and feeding the horses a carrot every time we left the property or returned to the property. Jonine was absolutely delightful to deal with both in person and via email. She welcomed us to the property and gave some tips as to where to visit with our kids. Upon departure we left an item behind and she called us to advise and went out of her way to reunite us with our item left behind. Would highly recommend and would also love to return in the future.

Super host, super stay
So glad we booked here! That’s the feeling you get as soon as you enter the property. Comfortable, relaxing, peaceful and private. The cottage is generously equipped and well placed for visiting Ferguson Valley - if you can drag yourself away from the tranquility of that front verandah! Jonine’s welcome was as warm as her bubbles cold. She was ever quick and willing to respond to requests for help and advice. Thanks for the flowers.

The information on Stayz was in incorrect, the property was not called Crooked Brook.
I received an email from Stayz 2 days before I left for my holiday with a map. This should have been sent at time if booking with the correct property name and address. We had to go to the Visitor Information place for information on the property, they called the owner and we obtained the correct property name and address. The aerial of the property is not what you get when you arrive at the property, instead of overlooking dams, you have water tanks and trees out of the windows. Very disappointing and won’t be booking with Stayz in the future.
