Clean property, as described. Comfortable and close to caves in the area. I was disappointed to not have the expertise of the owner as many had mentioned in reviews that he was helpful, but he was out of town while I was there. Fridge was handy and we brought our own coffeemaker and frother from home.

Such a peaceful and confortable stay at Edge of the Forrest motel. We only stayed 2 nights but they were 2 of the most comfortable and peaceful nights we've had on any overnight stays. The king bed is heavenly and Steve keeps the room temperature perfect so that you don't freeze even in winter. The bed also has heating but I never had to use it. The forrest surroundings are lush and serene and the brewery is just a quick walk down the back trail by the forrest. The town centre and everything you'd want to see is within 20 minutes walk from the motel so transport was not a problem. Steve's dog Clover is gorgeous too and loves pats. Would highly recommend staying here if you want a quiet, comfy place that isn't far from all the fun.

Steve is a great host. He was quick to share lots of information and answered all our questions as first-timers to beautiful Margaret River country. The rooms and grounds are first-rate. Downtown shopping and restaurants are a short walk, but Edge of the Forest is really in the edge of the forest. We loved our stay and hope to return.

We’ve stayed in numerous hotels/motels in and around Margaret River over the last 15 years, and this motel is the friendliest we’ve ever experienced. Steve was great to deal with and chat to, and the accommodation was good. We’ll definitely be back.
