A home within an “almost zoo!”
At the end of a 2km dirt road you’ll find this expansive property with modest (extremely comfortable) properties (miners cabins.) Our property had 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, very compact, comfortable and had everything we needed. The beds were super comfy, the bathroom was quite small, but our hosts had provided all the special touches. The highlight was what the sanctuary was all about…. they are an active rescue sanctuary for a wide range of animals. Thomas the Turkey escorted us around “his” property like a regal soldier. Goats, peacocks, lambs, spectacular ostriches, Shetland ponies, deers, ducks, pigeons, pigs… the list goes on! We could’ve spent weeks appreciating the love this sanctuary gives these animals! The only downside for us was that we brought our 2 dogs that are not really socialised, and definitely not familiar with wild animals. Don’t get me wrong, our hosts were most welcoming and encouraged us to take our dogs (on lead) around the farm… but we didn’t want to terrorise the poor animals! So the problem was more with us than the lovely place! Also, the cottage didn’t have a secure yard… we should’ve read that first… again, our mistake, not the hosts! But our dogs were welcome inside the house, and cuddled up with us in the evening We loved our stay and highly recommend it!

An amazing place to stay with amazing hosts. We couldn't recommend Wiluna Sanctuary more to those wanting to relax, explore the region and pat beautiful animals. Our kids were in heaven! The cottage had everything you could need and we loved the freedom we had to explore the property and connect with the animals. It was a short dirve to everything and the pool was perfect for cooling off in the afternoon. We'll be back for sure.

The cottage was cosy and functional. Loved that we had Netflix and great wifi. Beautiful relaxing scenary and location. The kids loved the tour with the animals with Theresa and the interaction with the animals. Location is well placed to explore the region lots of quaint towns and nature adventures to do. Theresa was a generous host with well equipped clean accommodation and lovely to chat to about the sanctuary and the animals. Highly recommend
