Welcome to our slice of paradise between Walpole and Denmark on the south coast of Western Australia. At Tree-Elle we like to make you feel at home and help you discover all the things you enjoy for a memorable holiday. We first discovered this magic part of the world in 1998 and we are still discovering all it has to offer. The best part about moving to Tree-Elle in 2011 is getting to share all of these discoveries with our guests so you can enjoy them too. Once you see me in my gumboots, you won't believe that I didn't own flat shoes before we moved from Perth to the country.

Do you love a Secret Garden? We have 5 acres of garden at Tree-Elle filled with birds, phascogales, blue tongued lizards and fairies. It is a real fairytale garden. All our houses have lovely large windows and glass sliding doors so you can enjoy the outdoors from the comfort of inside. The garden surrounding The Barnhouse was designed as living artwork framed by the window and door frames. You will adore watching the bright blue wrens dance across the hedges and through the hydrangeas outside the kitchen window. If you like feeding animals you are in for a treat. Our farm animals are definitely more pets, and plenty of them think they are actually humans. Maybe calling them "my kids" helped with that confusion. They adore a tickle under the chin and have an in built alarm clock for the end of day feeding. You can even help collect the eggs from our friendly hens at the end of the day.

World class wineries, delicious food and restaurants, pristine beaches, fascinating forests and a huge range of flora and fauna. There is SO much to see and do at, and surrounding, Tree-Elle Retreat we are still discovering them, even after 25 years! I love to introduce our guests to Tree-Elle Treasures (AKA local secret spots) including the latest vintage, new menus, great fishing spots and fun hikes. There's fairy door hunts, geocaching, Bibbulmun Track water crossings and so much more. Did you know there are quokkas in our area? That's right - they're not just on Rottnest! Ours aren't quite as used to people, so can be fun to search for in the forest. The Tree Top Walk is a great spot to look, I'll even tell you where I have spotted them. Some of the many wonderful nearby places I recommend are: The Marron Tale Peaceful Bay Fish and Chips The Nornabar The Bow Valley of the Giants Honey Valley of the Giants Olives and Wines Moombaki Wines Denmark Good Food Factory Bartholomew's Meadery Duckett's Mill Cheese Factory The Lakehouse SingleFile Wines Rockcliffe Winery Forrest Hill Wines Pepper and Salt
