We spent three nights here in March on what was our first visit to Margaret River, and we could not have asked for a better sanctuary to base ourselves in. Gilgara Retreat is nicely situated along Caves Road right by the turn to Carter Road (which leads into Margaret River town). Everywhere was an easy drive away - Cowaramup, Yalingup,... More

We recently spent 4 nights here and enjoyed our stay. Elaine and Steve were wonderful hosts and provided a great deal of information about the surrounding area. We stayed in the self contained units, not the B&B and made the most of the selection of DVD's on offer in the evenings. We found the units very comfortable and peaceful, and... More

We stayed at Gilgara Retreat for 3 nights while we explored the beautiful Margaret River region. Gilgara has a timeless elegance in the main house offering B&B while there are very modern units which allow self catering as well. We wanted to eat at the amazing restaurants that are around there so chose B&B. Steven and Elaine were wonderful hosts... More

We recently stayed here overnight when attending a concert in Margaret River. We came across it as it is one of a very few places that offer overnight stays. I was looking for somewhere quiet away from the big hotels and am so glad I found Gilgara! I was impressed at booking in to receive an email from Elaine recommending... More

We could run without going on roads all the way to the sea from here and encountered Kangaroos as we went. The rooms were clean, and great to be self catering as occasionally we wanted to cook. We were here for 5 nights- Steve and Elaine was super friendly. They lent us books to walk and run around. I had... More

Steve and Elaine were excellent and friendly hosts when we stayed at Gilgara whilst attending a wedding in the Margaret River area before Easter. The retreat has a fabulous setting and the rooms were well appointed. The breakfast was lovely with home made breads and locally sourced produce. A stay here will not disappoint!

We stayed for 2 nights during mid Feb in the Garden Suite as a romantic getaway. The Garden Suite was superb, very spacious for two with simple cooking facilities. The jacuzzi spa was the most memorable. Will definitely visit again and recommend to all!!!! We made a last minute booking and being an unknown to the Margaret River (MR) area,... More

We stayed in one of the rooms in the main house on a bed and breakfast basis. We received a warm welcome and our hosts had excellent local knowledge. Even though we have visited the area before, they made several suggestions for places to visit, eat etc which were all great. The room was simple and clean with a good... More

My Wife and I stayed at the Gilgara Retreat for 2 Nights in early January, on arrival, we were greeted by our host Elaine who immediately gave us the rundown on the area, and showed us to our room (which included a nice bottle of wine as we booked online). The Garden Suite we stayed in was MASSIVE, well furnished... More
