From each booking I make a micro-loan via kiva.org. Kiva is a nonprofit organisation. Amounts as small as $25 can help someone - usually a woman - start or expand a business. The effects can be life changing. empowering people who are living in poverty to make meaningful choices for basic human rights.

A real and comfortable home!

Had everything we needed, comfortable and convenient location. House is full of personality, not a cookie cutter hotel room. Really eclectic collection of furnishing and artworks. A lovely stay

Three Day Break in Augusta

Eclectic collection of art, books and kitchen ware and home wares. Diligent searching through packed kitchen drawers will delight as you will encounter many interesting items before finding the one you want. Single mattress was too thin and uncomfortable so we used the queen which was resting against the wall. Love the items, just need a little more space and Judith is very generous and trusting to allow us to use so many luxury items. Location is great.

Augusta beauty

Very well situated property with views to the river and ocean, right near town and a lovely stroll down to the river. So well appointed with interesting art and artifacts from around the world. Judith was a gracious host and we loved our stay in Augusta.

Not good ..

.. to be fair to potential renters wanting a relaxing holiday the owner needs to be up front on a couple of points. The property is not on Manning Rd but fronts the main road through Augusta, the road traffic noise was loud, very loud and constant from early am until late in the evening. The bedrooms are upstairs with no a/c! It was unbearably hot 🥵 and we had to try and sleep downstairs on the lounge the first 2 nights. The building construction provides no insulation from noise or the elements. It’s a small, cluttered space with no room for the personal things you would bring along on a holiday… “Relax to the max” is what we were expecting, not what we got and not happy.

Wine, walks and enough shoes 😉

Marvellous location and great host. A warm welcome with personal tour and special gift set us up for a nice stay. The house is full with great high quality appliances and wonderful art to admire. We brought too many things which we struggled to give a space in this place. Feather doona is marvellous and warm, but not good if you are asthmatic (change out before you go to bed). Location is so good that we considered buying around the corner!

Elegant and charming stay

The townhouse is beautifully positioned for views and sea breezes. It is genuinely a home and so lacks nothing. The furnishings are comfortable and aesthetically tasteful all at the same time.

Amazing Holiday House with Magnificent River views

This home was located in the heart of Augusta making it easy to access local variety shops in walking distance. The 2 storey town house is modern, clean and has all the mod cons in the kitchen and awesome spices free to use in teh pantry. Plenty of room to relax and unwind either on the lower or top balcony (which was my husband I favourite) and watch the sun go down!

Wonderful

We had a fantastic time staying at Judith's property. The house was well equipped and she was very responsive to any queries we had. The house is on the main strip of Augusta and everything was a short walk away. Thank you for the hospitality!

Luxury and comfort

A beautiful, well equipped and comfortable home. We were very happy staying here despite the bad weather, also very handy to the shops at Augusta. Very responsive host, thank you Judith. The only thing I would add (which may well be obvious to most people) is that the gorgeous view is from the master bedroom balcony and not from the main level where you would spend time socialising. Nevertheless a gorgeous place.

Great stay in Augusta

We had a great time in Augusta, and a perfect stay at Judith's place. She was very attentive and communicative. My questions were answered before arrival and her place was lovely. In the summer it gets light early and the room is quite bright so bring some eye shades if you need it dark. We wouldn't hesitate staying at Judith's place again.

AUGUSTA Fabulous 2 bedroom home

We loved our stay. The house exudes a beautiful combination of warmth, personality and luxury. It was an inspiring place to stay due to both the style of the home and the gorgeous views of the surrounding landscape. The location of the house is so close to both the bays and town. It was ideal for our young family and Judith is so kind and easy to liaise with. We hope to return for another visit!

About the host

Hosted by Judith Fordham

I’m an author, a public speaker, a criminal lawyer and a forensic specialist. I'm a scuba diver and am working on learning to talk underwater. I love wine, shoes and handbags. I split my time between Molloy Island and Augusta in the South-West of Western Australia. I love this region and its people: its world-class food and wine (oh that’s right, I said wine already). I love to travel. I’ve been a guest many times and I’m now hosting also.

Why they chose this property

Perfect for having guests while I am at home and also for hosting. Each bedroom having its own ensuite is a major bonus. I love the fresh air, the views, the feeling of space and light, and the relaxation. Comfortable beds and top quality linen is great at the end of the day. I love it.
