About this property

Swan Valley Heights Merino Manor

  • Swan Valley Heights sits up on the Scarp with unlimited views over the entire city of Perth. There are plenty of kangaroos to watch all day long as well as sheep grazing the property. Watch magnificent sunsets or observe storms as they slowly make their way across the beautiful city of Perth or just sit on the front verandah and watch the planes as they come and go in the distance. We are situated on ten peaceful acres with a winter creek running through the block, walkways run from here up through the bush land with wildflowers abundant in season. The owner, under the direction of George Lulfitz, West Australian Guru of native plants, is developing the extensive garden surrounding the accommodation making use of our beautiful West Australian native plants. The home is furnished with pictures and other items that clearly reflect the owners New Zealand and Australian heritage and his love of this great country especially all things of nature and the outback.

We allow up to half the number of people on your booking to visit during the day (for example, if you’ve booked for 8 guests, you may have up to 4 visitors).

Fantastic, relaxing and earthy

Had a wonderful time at the property. From the moment we drove up the driveway and admired the beautiful view and tranquility. Thé property had a huge verandah with a fabulous view and felt very relaxing! We were greeted by the very friendly chickens also! The host was very personable and his staff also. Definitely recommend a getaway there. With a group or just a few… it was fabulous.

The first bedroom room opposite the laundry area - The sliding glass door panel was not cleaned so the beautiful views of the land could not be appreciated fully. Otherwise, the property is a very lovely place. The host has even provided us with the fresh eggs for our breakfast.The location is very close to Bell's Rapids which our group visited.

Great location. Outstanding views.

This was our second time at the property. It's such a great spot to completely relax. Close to things to see and do in the Swan Valley, but far enough away to feel like you're "away from it all".

Another fab stay

This is our second time staying at this property and as usual we loved it. Walking distance to a microbrewery, winery and tavern, chickens and egg collecting each day for the kids, a pool (although was a bit cool for a proper swim this time), fully equipped kitchen, comfy beds - can't fault it. Thanks again Paul!

Paul and co (the owner) was amazing and very accommodating to our booking. Property was just beautiful and the view was unbelievable, pictures do not do it justice. It feels like you are down south. Cannot recommend it enough and will be back!
