Willow Wood Glamping Retreat

Tucked away on the fringe of the Boranup Forest, Willow Wood Glamping Retreat offers the kind of serene escape that feels worlds apart from everyday life. Set amid towering karri trees and whispering peppermint groves, this adults-only hideaway features a small collection of luxurious bell tents and cosy cabins, each styled for comfort and calm. Surrounded by native bushland yet just a short drive from Hamelin Bay, it’s an ideal place to trade noise for birdsong and breathe a little deeper. Plush bedding, private decks, timber furnishings and thoughtful touches create a boutique stay where you can curl up with a book, wander the forest trails or simply watch the canopy sway with the breeze.

Evenings at Willow Wood are all about slowing down, sinking into an outdoor bath, lighting the firepit or settling under the stars as the forest quiets around you. Fresh local breakfast provisions ease you gently into the day, while nearby wineries, farm gates and coastal lookouts give you plenty of reasons to explore at your own pace. With no crowds and no pressure to rush, this tranquil retreat offers a peaceful base for discovering the Margaret River Region and a soothing sanctuary to return to when you’re ready to unwind.

Olio Bello Lakeside Glamping

It’s not every day that you’ll be waking up with lakeside views in the middle of a 320-acre certified organic olive farm. Olio Bello Lakeside Glamping, however, is one spot where you’ll be able to do exactly that, all from your own luxurious safari-style bungalow.

Surrounded by 8000 olive trees and only minutes from the beaches of Gracetown, you’ll have plenty of space to wander through the groves and get some fresh country and oceanic air. This eco-friendly glamping option is a blissful marriage of style and simplicity. You’ll have the luxury of your own private en-suite, kitchenette and living space, including a viewing deck. Be sure to bring a good book for the lakeside hammock – you’ll not want to waste a minute of this tranquillity.

The Olio Bello café sits right next door, so you’ll be able to enjoy olive oil tastings, a long lunch and a glass of wine without the worry of getting in the car to journey home. Or for the ultimate pamper-packed glamping trip, book a massage or stock up on their organic beauty products from the Farm Shop. You’ll soon be settling down for a night under the stars after you’ve nurtured and nourished yourself into a blissful state.
