Slow down at Fernara Marri House, a brand-new modern home set on peaceful bushland with room for the whole group to spread out. Just a 20-minute walk from town, it`s an easy, relaxed base for families, groups and couples — polished concrete floors, generous open-plan living and large windows framing the surrounding forest.

Gather everyone around the firepit as the sun drops, pull out the board games on a lazy afternoon, or fire up the BBQ for long lunches at the outdoor dining area under the trees. Three bedrooms offer flexible bedding to suit families and groups, with a full kitchen for shared meals and hot showers waiting after a day out.

A fully paved footpath leads straight into town in around 20 to 25 minutes, so you can wander in for coffee, dinner or supplies without the car. From there you can pick up the flat, easy Blackwood River Walk along the foreshore, or head a little further to the Kondil Park bush loops, lovely when the wildflowers are out. The wider region is known for its mountain bike trails, scenic drives and wineries.

Fast Starlink internet keeps everyone connected for streaming or remote work, and there`s secure lockable bike storage, a wash-down area and off-street parking for multiple vehicles and trailers.
This is a calm bush retreat designed for comfort, care and shared enjoyment. Please treat it as you would your own home.
