Banana Pancakes - Walk to Town

COVID-19 Risk Management

This premises is cleaned and sanitised using the environmental cleaning and disinfection principals for COVID-19. Scheduled extra cleaning has been allocated during this global pandemic for your safety.

Banana Pancakes is a delicious 1950’s weatherboard cottage, renovated and restored into a delightful and comfortable holiday home, set in a fairytale cottage garden in the prettiest corner of Margaret River and only a kilometre from town.

As the name suggests, this is the place where you can relax with your family and friends, and indulge the eating pleasures of a leisurely Sunday morning, where the world rolls by.

This picturesque jarrah cottage is fully self-contained and is situated on a one acre bush property with cultivated gardens, native plants and fruit trees, fully fenced to keep the family dog secure. A walk at sunset is an enjoyable experience of sights and sounds in a peaceful environment.

All linen and bath towels are included in the price.

"Maybe we can sleep in. Make you banana pancakes. Pretend like it’s the weekend now." - Jack Johnson



Guest Comments

"We stayed at Banana Pancakes Holiday House in June 2014 and I must say that it's the most delightful place that I've stayed at in Margaret River. It's tucked away in a majestic location surrounded by tall trees, cottage gardens and quietly chirping birds. You feel that you are a million miles away, despite the town centre only being a stone throw away. We were impressed by the tranquility, the house design and the amenities that they had to offer. Amongst the highlights were sitting by the wood fire at night or on the back verandah at daytime overlooking the beautiful gardens. We felt as if we were at a home away from home. We have already recommended this to all of our friends and we will certainly be revisiting Banana Pancakes again." Emma from Perth.

"We stayed for our family holiday at Banana Pancakes and loved every minute of it! There was so much to keep the kids occupied, including a trampoline, tyre swings, a bike track and a great selection of games. That was when they weren't exploring the huge property! Looking forward to our next getaway!" The Brennan family.

"We stayed 2 nights at Banana Pancakes and seriously didn't want to leave, its such a beautiful tranquil place. The cottage itself is so well equipped and spotless! With the added bonus of being able to bring our dogs who loved the acre of fully fenced bush garden.I am so glad I found this accommodation and cannot wait for our next stay." - Sarah.

Fabulous Tranquil Bush retreat in town
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage with the Beautiful Garden and Tranquil bush setting, together with wildlife, and so close to town. Our two dogs also thoroughly enjoyed roaming around the bush block. The cottage contained everything that we needed with comfortable fans and air conditioning and we loved sitting out on the veranda overlooking the garden. The only minor disappointment was the Fetch box which we found difficult to navigate and unbearably slow, and, because it doesn't stream services that contain ads, we couldn't watch Netflix or Prime, and it doesn't include Binge or Max. The fetch box is the only way to watch free-to-air TV channels but you need to have your own 7plus, 9now, ABC iview etc account.

Magical!!
We absolutely loved our stay at Banana Pancakes! It was a truly beautiful property, the garden was a hit with our little one. You get a feeling of tranquility and isolation whilst still being so close to everything at the same time and everything in the cottage was really comfy and cosy. Honestly, couldn’t be happier.

Wonderful Place, Close To Town, Great For Dog.
The Property was very private and all fenced it, which was great for the dog. It's just a close walk to town, around 10-15 minutes, and just across the road from the trail system which can lead you into town, or into the national park. We enjoyed our stay and will book again after summer season is over. Property was clean, and had everything we needed in regards to cooking and staying warm during colder evenings.

Perfect for family get together
The large open plan lounge dining and kitchen was perfect for a comfortable and relaxed gathering. We enjoyed the games and puzzles and large comfortable sofa. Fireplace was awesome.The kitchen was great for cooking. Due to the rain we couldn't make the most of the large secret garden but we look forward to staying again and spending more time outdoors.

Shady bush getaway close to Margs
Banana Pancakes was really delightful - it felt isolated and like a true getaway being on an acre of bush, but was walking distance to the centre of Margs. My kids had an absolute ball exploring the secret pathways, trampoline and tyre swing, and we enjoyed sitting on the deck. The whole place was really well stocked with everything we needed, both the kitchen and toys, dvds and books in particular. The owners had great communication and check in and out was easy. Thank you - we will be back again for sure ☺️

Cute house close to town
Banana Pancakes is a gorgeous little cottage style home! It had everything we needed including lots of books and toys for the kids. Great location - close enough to the town centre to walk but away from the hustle and bustle. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Wonderful stay in a lovely house!
Nestled into a forest block a nice walk or quick drive from Margaret River town, Banana Pancakes cottage is a flashback to previous times reminding me of my grandparent’s place with a very well equiped kitchen. All the items to keep warm in winter are provided. The gardens provide great bird watching opportunities with easy access to walking or biking tracks around Margaret River. Everything was clean and tidy upon arrival and we enjoyed our stay with four adults.

The perfect winter getaway
We had the best stay at Banana Pancakes! The property has so much charm and character, we felt right at home instantly. It's nestled under the canopy of the trees, with The Secret Garden vibes, but only a stone throw away from the main strip in Margaret River. The kids had the best time exploring the garden, jumping on the trampoline, as well as the roasted marshmallows by the fireplace. It was the perfect location and home to retreat from our busy lives in Perth and explore the surrounds such as the caves, Boranup forest and Hamelin Bay. The kids won't stop talking about our "holiday house". I'm sure we'll back sometime soon! Thank you for having us Jacqui & Martin!

Cosy winter retreat
This lovely cottage was very clean and really comfortable. It's located close to town but is surrounded by trees and greenery, so you feel like you are in the forest looking out from the windows of the property. The fire made the cold, rainy nights cosy and enjoyable. It would be helpful to have more towels, as one per person for 6 nights wasn't enough, particularly as there's no clothes dryer and it's difficult to dry washing in the middle of winter. That would be my only negative. Otherwise Banana Pancakes is great place to stay in Margaret River!
