Yelverton Brook is a peaceful retreat offering spacious self-contained accommodation within a private 100-acre Conservation Sanctuary in the heart of Western Australia's Margaret River region. Friendly native wildlife, walk trails and beautiful bushland create a truly memorable nature-based escape, just a short drive from world-class wineries, caves and spectacular coastline.

Discover what makes Yelverton Brook a privately owned Conservation Sanctuary where conservation and memorable nature-based experiences go hand in hand. Meet friendly kangaroos, possums, bandicoots and over 50 species of native birds that call this special place home.

Choose from three spacious two-bedroom Lodges, ideal for couples or friends travelling together, or two cosy one-bedroom Studios designed for couples seeking peace and privacy. Each is fully self-contained and thoughtfully positioned amongst the bushland, offering a slower pace of life where friendly native wildlife regularly visits your doorstep. Yelverton Brook also provides the perfect base to explore the wineries, beaches, caves and attractions of the Margaret River region.

Reconnect with Nature in Comfort
Large, open-plan living areas provide a great space to unwind and recharge. Tall vaulted ceilings and panoramic windows overlook a lush and uninterrupted natural setting, creating a bright and airy feel.  The versatile spaces are well suited for relaxing and spending time together – enabling you to reconnect without the distractions of everyday life. During the cooler months, relax beside the warmth of a cosy wood fire in a Lodge or all have a Firepit outside. A fully equipped kitchen is ideal for preparing delicious meals, whilst a vast patio and secluded lawn surrounded by beautiful bushland allow you to enjoy everything nature has to offer. All of the comforts of home are provided to ensure your stay is hassle-free.

The Story of Yelverton Brook

Joy & Simon purchased Yelverton Brook as a 100-acre virgin bush block in 1988. Driven by a passion for conservation and sustainable living, their vision was to create nature-based accommodation that protected the surrounding bushland while offering guests an unforgettable wildlife experience. Each of the Lodges and Studios has been lovingly hand-built from sustainably sourced materials and features environmentally sensitive design. Positioned within natural bushland clearings, every building was carefully placed to minimise environmental impact while creating privacy and a true sense of seclusion.

Today, Yelverton Brook provides a safe haven for native wildlife and has supported conservation programs through carefully managed wildlife reintroductions and releases over many years. The sanctuary is home to friendly western grey kangaroos, brushtail possums, southern brown bandicoots and more than 50 species of native birds. Protected by a 2.4-kilometre predator-proof fence, the bushland continues to regenerate naturally, creating a peaceful environment for both wildlife and guests.

What a brilliant stay! 🌿✨ The cottages are so earthy, charming, and cosy, offering the perfect escape into nature. And the animals—oh my God! ❤️ They are so friendly, and getting to experience them up close is truly special. The ambience is lovely, the service is excellent, and the caretakers have done a fantastic job of maintaining the entire sanctuary, from the cottages to the surrounding grounds. The security is also excellent, making the stay feel safe and comfortable. If you’re travelling from Perth to Margaret River, I highly recommend experiencing this beautiful conservation sanctuary. It’s a wonderful place to unwind, connect with nature, and create beautiful memories. We absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend it! 🐾🌿

We absolutely loved our stay! It's a peaceful, cosy little place, beautifully clean and thoughtfully put together. Everything was well equipped, especially the kitchen, which had pretty much everything we could need. Joy and Simon were lovely and welcoming, and we enjoyed seeing the wildlife around the property. We'll definitely be back for future getaways.

We stayed here for a last-minute getaway over the past long weekend. The cabin was lovely and had everything you would need. The kangaroos were so beautiful and friendly too. We had so many around the cabin. We also had possums, parrots and a range of birds. The hot tub was a fantastic bonus. Thank you for having us, Laith and Annie
