Karridale Cottages

Karridale

Karridale Cottages has curated the ultimate outdoor bath experience for their guests. You’ll take a short stroll, along a lantern-lit pathway, to a sumptuous stone bath tub surrounded by majestic jarrah and marri trees. The free-standing tub sits aloft a deck, with an outdoor fire pit blazing when the seasons turn cold.

The bath itself runs on solar energy, which we have to say is pretty cool. Plus, guests get to indulge in bath salts, made from 100% natural ingredients, by local maker, Corrynne’s Natural Skincare. An outdoor bath in the incredible Karridale forest is the perfect way to shake off the hustle of everyday life and ground yourself in the calming beauty of the Margaret River Region.

Hilltop Studios

Margaret River

Wanting the best of both worlds when it comes to soaking with a view? Have a look at this bathe-envy design at Hilltop Studios with wooden bi-fold windows opening up over the deck, leaving you with the luxurious choice to bath inside or out (and anywhere in-between).

Stepping into your studio, you’ll quickly connect the dots. It’s called ‘The Panorama’ for what you may call very unquestionable reasons. Not only does those gorgeous windows open up over the deck, but beyond rolls 150-hectare private and uninterrupted farm and valley views hosting residency to the region’s ‘roos and local wildlife. If you’re ready to soak in both views and a spa, this stay should definitely be up there.
