The surrounds are beautiful, the cottage is immaculately maintained and has every amenity that we would wish for. We loved watching large numbers of little birds enjoying the bird bath. Information provided by caring hosts Libby and Darren is excellent. Across the road is a good gravel road through the forest to Big Brook Dam - a lovely place for a walk and picnic. It's only a short drive to Pemberton. We loved our 3 nights at Big Brook Retreat and highly recommend it.
- Melanie (10/5): A beautiful place to stay. Will definitely return. - The most beautiful property with gorgeous gardens and birds. Beautiful accommodation with everything you need. Great shower and comfortable bed. Grounds to walk in. Forest across the road. Nothing to dislike other than the fact we couldn’t stay forever.
- Stephenie (10/5): I would come again and Darrin (the owner) was of great help even gave me a few tips to enjoy our stay. - Very peaceful especially waking to the sound of birds and our adult son took a photo of a rabbit outside his window. Can’t complain it was all good.

The attention to detail was fantastic right down to providing the kitchen basics which we always forget. I would highly recommend this accommodation. We will definitely be back for a winter retreat. The only issue we found was that there was no air-conditioner or fan in the bedroom and the first night was quiet warm which made sleeping a little uncomfortable. The second night was cooler so much better.

- Jennifer (9/5): Absolutely beautiful and well equipped private and peaceful cottage for Two! - This was one of our favourite accommodations on our tour of WA’s South West Edge! For couples who enjoy peace, relaxation and beautiful surroundings, stay here! The cottage was well equipped, comfortable and nicely furnished. My favourite part was being able to open the French doors onto the patio and sit out and watch the myriad of birds visiting the garden from the surrounding forest. The view of Big Brook forest from the patio was beautiful. We were able to walk around most of the grounds and gardens of the owners property & experience the bird life and sounds. It was wonderful actually! There was nothing we didn’t like, it was pretty perfect for our requirements, including provided slippers and gowns. The only suggestion I would make is for a sun lounger or two to really be able to lay back and enjoy those beautiful surroundings.
