Skibo House - Exclusive Escapes

Welcome to Skibo House, a place where you can relax in comfort and enjoy all that the Margaret River Region has to offer. Situated just 2.2km from the beautiful little town of Witchcliffe and 8.5km south of the main town of Margaret River, you are close enough to everything whilst at the same time feeling miles away.

Skibo House is named after Skibo Castle, an enchanting castle in the Northern Highlands of Scotland. This house is perfect for families. Your children will delight in making their own memories in the play area, let their imaginations run wild as they pretend to be in a genuine Scottish Castle! The extensive 5 acre grounds of the property allow for hours of outdoor and nature play, while the parents can relax playing lawn games in the dedicated games area, while there is a fire pit that you are welcome to use during the winter months. (Although restrictions apply over the summer months, please check with https://www.amrshire.wa.gov.au/ for the latest fire information and fire bans).

Upon entering the home, the main living, dining area, and kitchen are filled with light from the huge floor-to-ceiling windows and doors on both sides of the house; which open out in the summer to let cooling natural breezes through the space. The large kitchen area is big enough to cater for a full family-cook-up, and there is an adjacent butlers pantry with sink and washing-up facilities. The main living area and all bedrooms are comfortably warmed and cooled by fully ducted air conditioning.

The master bedroom features a large ensuite with twin basins and an extra-deep bath. There are 4 other bedrooms in the house and a further 2 bathrooms and powder room. Bedrooms 2 and 3 have queen beds, and bedrooms 4 & 5 has tri-bunk (double on the bottom, single on the top). There is a TV/playroom for the kids adjacent to the bunk rooms.

This property is pet friendly, but we respectfully ask that pets are not allowed on the furniture or in bedrooms, that pets are well behaved around the neighbouring properties and are responsible around the landscaped and reticulated areas. The perimeter fencing on the property is rural-style post and wire, some dogs may be able to get through the fence so supervision is required.

If you are bringing a pet, please add the pet fee at the time of booking. It is important to note, your pet cannot be left unattended at the property, this is a requirement of the local council.

There are external security cameras operating at this property.

Things to do:

The front gate to the house sits on the Wadandi Track, allowing for easy bike access to Margaret River and beyond, while at the end of the road is the rear entrance to the world-famous Leeuwin Estate where you can escape for long and lazy lunches.

With Witchcliffe so close we recommend trying the the McHenry Hohnen Cellar Door right on the main-dray, ride a bike on in and take advantage of the regions wonderful wine offerings.

Amaze'n is just 3km away and a great place to spend the day, get lost in the maze, sprawl on the manicured gardens and compete with the kids at mini golf.

Fantastic property
The house was great and easily accommodated 6 adults 3 kids. The outside yard and kids playground kept the kids entertained and was big enough that we didnt have to worry about them too much. The location to Witchcliffe was a short 10 minute drive with lovely quaint shops. Would definitely stay there again

Just perfect
My family and I (8 adults, 2 small children and a dog!) all had the absolute best stay at Skibo House. Everything was as pictured, in fact some pictures don’t do the property justice. We started each day by visiting a different beach - all within a short drive and ended most days in town which is also only a short drive away. The outdoor space was perfect for our 3 year old and 1 year old. Our dog also enjoyed the freedom to sniff and explore the fenced grounds. Thank you a wonderful stay!

Beautiful property
Some minor issues, we could hardly get the tv, Netflix etc to work not even free to air. It would have been nice to know we needed basics like salt, pepper oil The light switch in the main bedroom didn’t stay on. As I say minor things, the property was perfect for us as a family of 3 generations.
