Willy Bay Resort commands an enviable lakeside setting on 75 acres of bushland and gardens in the heart of the Margaret River wine region and bordering Yelverton National Park. Dotted through the bushland estate are ten chalets, which offer the charm of rammed-earth walls and exceptional interior style. The blend of rustic charm and cool, contemporary interiors is perfect.

The recently refurbished chalets feature quality appointments, including gas log fires, marble flooring, plush furnishings, LCD TVs, local artworks and a palette of modern tones. Each two-bedroom chalet has a gourmet kitchen and dining area and an opulent bathroom with hydrotherapy spa. The outlook from the private patio towards the lake, bushland or vineyards is enchanting. And each chalet has been carefully sited for privacy.

Many hours can be spent wandering the property or relaxing in the lakeside gazebo. Beyond the resort's perimeter, the very best of this region awaits you: wineries (Willy Bay's own winery is on the way), a famed chocolate factory, a coffee brewer and sensational beaches.
