Bussells Bushland Cottages is a gazetted "Land for Wildlife" property which occupies a 20 hectare (50 acre) bush block just 5kms NW of Margaret River township. The 8 delightful rammed-earth cottages are all fully self-contained and have 2 bedrooms, an open living room / kitchen, a shared bathroom and a front verandah. Coin-operated laundry facilities are available. The property has old growth jarrah, marri, banksia and peppermint; and is home to numerous wildflowers, prolific birdlife, possums, bandicoots and mobs of kangaroos. Access to the property is via a 600 metre tree-lined gravel driveway, bordered by historic dairy country. It's just a 5 minute drive to Margaret River's Visitors' Centre, shops, cafes and bars; and an easy drive to the region's best beaches, wineries and a myriad tourist attractions. Come along and enjoy the peaceful tranquillity of our idyllic bushland retreat, the preferred choice of many thousands of visitors.
By 31 March 2012, all 8 cottages will have been completely gutted, refitted and raised to a SUPERIOR level. From this date, therefore, there will be Standard cottages on offer.

Costs are based on 2 persons sharing 1 room and we charge extra bed prices for use of the 2nd bedroom. Infants under 2 years using a portacot will be free-of-charge.
During the day, you can head off to visit wineries, cheese and chocolate factories, world-renowned beaches and surf breaks, olive and venison farms, historic homesteads and much, much more.
