Frequently Asked Questions
What are the charges/fees?
- The charges for 2023 are $105 per person per night, with a minimum charge of 10-people (i.e. minimum of $1050 per night) and a minimum 2-night stay.
- There are a couple of exceptions to this, where we are more flexible with the minimum number of people charged for. These are: 1) During a mid-week stay, you are welcome to have less than 10 people if you stay long enough for the charges to equate to at least $2100 (e.g. 7 people for 3-nights = 7 x $105 x 3 = $2205); or, 2) If you choose to take advantage of a night adjacent to your booking remaining available by the time you arrive, you are welcome for each person to pay $105 for any extra night without needing to meet any minimum numbers. Within a few weeks of your booking we are generally able to commit to keeping a night available for you under this arrangement, but guaranteeing nights for you over longer time frames will require the minimum charge of 10-people to be met.
What deposit do you need, and what if we cancel?
Bookings are confirmed with a $210 deposit. This is fully refunded in the event of a cancellation with more than one month notice, or in the event of the vacancy being subsequently filled.
What are the payment options?
Do we need to book the whole facility?
What are the check-in/check-out times?
Can we get our meals catered?
Yes. Although we don’t get directly involved, there are local caterers who are familiar with looking after the meal requirements of our groups. We recommend Wild Thyme Gourmet – contact Polly Campbell 0428 448 466, wildthymegourmet@hotmail.com, https://www.facebook.com/wildthymegourmet20/
Can we self cater?
What is the bedding configuration?
What audio visual facilities do you have?
What heating and cooling does the building have?
Do you get mobile phone reception?
Yes, there is a Telstra and Optus mobile service in Dwellingup. We have installed a booster that gives very good service on the Telstra 4G network. Service on the Optus network is intermittent inside the building, but there is a reliable signal outside in an exposed location.
Is there a WiFi service?
Not at the moment. We did attempt to get a Fixed Wireless NBN connection but could not get a signal. This left the Satellite NBN as the only option, which we declined on the basis it would be unsuitable for a large number of users. Instead, we have installed a booster for the Telstra 4G network so that guests could reliably use their phones for calls/data (note, Optus network reception is reasonable without a booster).
