Recently competed the Permaculture Design Course (PDC) - Jan 2023. What an amazing - and educational - experience. The PDC is not just for ‘greenies, hippies, landscapers and the like’ - it is a course that all should attend for the broad appreciation of earth and life, to preserve and engage. Highly Recommended - extremely informative - very thought-provoking, the managers, staff and teachers each bring broad knowledge on the principals of Permaculture - Earth Care, People Care and Fair Share. Worth every cent! The food (for the course) was simply AMAZING - all prepared onsite using where possible site grown ingredients, even including Osso Bucco (meat from one of the farm animals), organic (everything of course!) eggs, veggies, and for our time there, in season apricots and plums (YUM) - that had REAL flavour and I would imagine nutrition packed. Again - SUPER recommended - if you’re fortunate to get on the next course - DO IT!!!

Probably one of the best campsite I stayed in (and I went to many in Australia/New Zealand). Eco friendly campsite located 6km from Margaret River in a quiet and wild area, this place have hot showers/dry toilets/campkitchen/plugs to recharge your phone and other devices/playground for children (or adults ahah). We paid $53 for 3 adults (1 car, 2 tents). You can recycle cans/glass bottles/food scraps... Just make sure you bring your own trash bag for your trash that can't be recycled (they only take the stuff that can be recycled, which is fair enough). They also have some goats with their own house, chilling around... I wish we had enough time to check the permaculture area, an other time maybe :) Anyway, everything is built in a logical and ecological way, respectful of the earth. I hope we will see more places like this in the future, this is a great concept and that's how I picture the accommodation of tomorrow. Thank you!

It's beautiful here, we came when it was a little hot though. Love the geese and goats! The veggie garden was lovely, and we really wanted to camp in the teepee but it was booked for a while, next time though! Really wanted to try the food but having a fussy eater child made it a bit difficult. Menu was fresh, but could do with more drink options, would have been nice to sit outside with a milkshake or smoothie.

If you love camping and also want to be facilitated with all the amenities at the Margaret River region, this is it. Really appreciate the host Jodie for making everything available for us in short notice and replying back our queries fast as lighting. Will surely be back and was one of the best experiences we have had while camping.
