Climate
The Margaret River region enjoys a Mediterranean climate.

This climate nurtures diverse local flora and fauna, enhancing the natural beauty of the region throughout the year.
Information
Arrival
Upon landing at Perth or Busselton airports, renting a car is recommended to ensure the easiest travel to our Birdnests, with a three-hour drive from Perth and a brief 30-minute trip from Busselton. For an environmentally friendly option, consider renting an electric vehicle. If you are not arriving in your own vehicle, bus services are available to bring you to the Margaret River town center, from where we offer a pickup service to complete the final 10-minute drive to your retreat.
Local Transportation
Navigating the expansive Margaret River region calls for a car, as public transport is sparse and infrequent. For ultimate flexibility, car rental is your best option. Taxis are available too but remember to book them ahead of your journey. For the avid cyclists, renting a bicycle is a great choice for embarking on scenic tours and fully appreciating the breathtaking landscapes at a leisurely pace.
