Escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Our quaint 1 bedroom cottage set amongst 10 acres of gumtrees is the perfect escape for the single or couple looking for a getaway. The cottage is set up for those looking for peace and quiet, with a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom bosting a vintage claw foot bath, majestic views from the sitting area where you can pass the day watching the birds bathe or the kangaroos come in for their evening meal.

This is such a beautiful spot! Liza & Dave have created such a lovely space and are so welcoming and friendly. The stove, the outdoor shower, the little tree house! So simple, cosy and adorable. A friend and I stayed here after doing some hiking nearby and we are going to make it an annual thing. Thank you so much for opening up this space for people to enjoy x

Weekend Trip to Citrus Park – A peaceful escape

We had a fantastic stay at Citrus Park Camping. Vicky was a lovely host, great communication before the trip and special touches when we arrived. My children loved feeding the donkeys, meeting the animals, exploring the property and venturing up the big hill opposite. My dog also enjoyed the use of the agility area to run around. We hope to be back again.

My stay at the Cottage was just what I'd hoped for: very comfortable, peaceful and private. I enjoyed the gorgeous views and company of birds and kangaroos . Our hosts were welcoming, helpful and non-intrusive.

It was a nice experience. Close enough to things around but secluded enough you feel alone.

Weekend Trip to Gumtree Gully Cottage

We had such a lovely 2-night stay! The cottage was clean and inviting. We arrived to a lovely welcome sign and some goodies like chips, m&m’s, oats cups for breakfast, jerky and biltong. There was fire wood chopped for the fireplace, and bubble bath and bath salts by the bath. These were such unexpected but lovely touches that made us so grateful to have booked this weekend away! The property is wonderful for dogs to have a very enjoyable run around and sniff.

Liza was a friendly and welcoming host and the yurt was spacious, clean, and had a lot of privacy. Loved the little platform up the tree where we could sit and enjoy the peaceful surrounds. Easy access to amenities and numerous trails. Thanks Liza!

Weekend Trip to Yurt Abundance in Perth Hills

I had a really wonderful two nights here. There are some other houses around but it feels secluded and the neighbourgood is beautiful. Cooking with the camp cooker and having the pot belly stove on was super cozy and wasn't too cold inside. This is such a good option for the feel of camping but way more convenient and sheltered. The outdoor shower and tree house were also great. Lisa the owner is very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend this yurt.

Great for a quick, well priced stopover in suburbia. We had a 10month old pup and he loved playing with the owners dog and he was allowed in the yurt.

Weekend Trip to Yurt Abundance in Perth Hills

Close enough to everything if you need it, but far enough to feel like you've escaped the city. :) Private, lots of birds and a cute puppo that likes to say goodmorning. The tree house, swing and the cards were a nice surprise! Definitely entertaining and just what the doctor ordered. Yurts are a big part of my husbands culture so he found the experience quite nostalgic, too. Thank you having us. :)
