About this property

Boranup Chalet "Jewel"

"Jewel" is fully self-contained luxury amidst the towering Karris and beauty of the Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park. Indulge yourself with a glass of champagne in the flowering native garden, or get out and discover the caves, bush walks, swimming, surfing and fishing that are all a few minutes away.
It is also a 5-minute walk to the "Pies and Ale" cafe where you can drink local brews and devour delicious homemade pies (closed Sunday and Monday)

If 4WD is your thing then take to the many trails in the area that lead to prisitine beaches and secluded forest.

Alternatively, take a stroll to the nearby fine-wood Boranup Gallery and on the way explore the extensive native garden and look out for emus, kangaroos and the famous birdlife that frequent the property.

At the end of the day, enjoy a BBQ under the outdoor alfresco area while sipping a glass of local wine and counting the Blue Wrens and other birds as they enjoy the bird bath.

Or choose from one of the many quality restaurants in town and taste the local produce.

Forrest Stay
The king sized bed is very comfy and the rain shower is very luxurious! The ceiling fans and rammed earth walls stop the chalet from getting too hot in summer. The property is right in the forest which is what we were looking for. The bird life is amazing! The bird baths have been very thoughtfully set up next to trees, with timber stumps creatively arranged for the birds to land on and flit in and out of the bird baths, there are low growing flowering shrubs placed and trimmed so that you can easily see the birds. Very relaxing! Beth & Tony

Beautiful Surroundings
Such a lovely place to stay in between Margaret River and Augusta. We were able to visit local caves, lighthouse and stunning beaches all within an easy drive. The property is cool in Summer and well equipped and appointed with everything you need for a relaxing, private and comfortable stay. The private outdoor areas and birds coming in every morning to drink and cool off in the bird baths were delightful.

Beautiful garden put us in holiday mode
A 3 night stay was just enough to put us in to holiday mode at this beautiful, secluded chalet in the bush. The sturdy rammed earth walls and fire made it cozy through the last cold nights of winter and we enjoyed walking through the nicely cultivated bush native garden. This was a perfect time for the wild flowers and we saw lots of birds enjoying the place too.

Cosy comfortable bird friendly cottage.
We felt at home the moment we entered the property. There was a generous supply of fire wood and the cottage was soon toasty warm. The cooking utensils , pots pans etc were very well stocked and the cooker and oven were very efficient. Even though it was cold and rainy we enjoyed watching the birds and rain from all windows. We will be back and will tell our family and friends of our wonderful stay.

Beautiful cottage in established native garden
Jewel is a very comfortable cottage with premium finishes and furnishings. It's surrounded by a lovely native garden that is clearly a labour of love for the owner. The garden and bird bath are visited by a variety of birds. The cottage is in a great location to explore the nearby limestone caves and sections of the Cape to Cape walk at the coast. The nearby cafe Pies & Ale is just a few minutes walk away and is worth a visit. Nice food and ambiance. Altogether we had a delightful stay at Jewel.

Beautiful Birds and Comfy Chalet
A truly delightful stay in an immaculate, beautifully decorated and spacious chalet with everything you need right there. The highlight was the amazing birdlife right at the front door with the self filling birdbath. We had the best time identifying all the different birds with the little bird book. So relaxing right in the heart of the Boranup Forest.
