Stay at Stellar Violets Cottage
World weary traveller, this is your homecoming.
Between forest and orchards in Manjimup, Stellar Violets is a place where rest and renewal unfold naturally. Since 2009, we’ve lovingly nurtured these grounds into vibrant gardens and peaceful spaces that invite a deeper connection with nature and self.
Our newly restored cottage offers two thoughtfully designed spaces: Heartland, a spacious accessible studio with a cook’s kitchen, and Morning Bird, a cosy retreat for living lightly. Positioned side-by-side, each features its own private entrance and living space, allowing for rest and reflection. Adjoining acoustic doors between the studios can be opened, if desired.
Here, you’ll find a sanctuary to gather your thoughts, listen to the birdsong, and reconnect with what matters most.

Once an industrial relic, this 1950s Western Australian heritage icon was lovingly transformed by a French and Australian co-creative team. Emerging from the forests and gardens of Stellar Violets, “le bus” is a wondrous, light-filled sanctuary. Sink into the king cloud bed with its sumptuous, locally made velvet curtains, or unwind in the plush dining space with a retro board game.
We instantly felt a sense of calmness, peace and grounding on arrival; Stellar Violets is full of so much natural beauty, with colour, the vast array of birds, fruit trees, lavender, and vintage train carriages. After four nights reconnecting with the land, we left feeling rejuvenated.
