Our Eco Standards
We are proud to say that our beautiful trees consume more CO2 than our accommodation produces. We believe that we might be Australia’s only holiday accommodation to achieve this by their own means (rather than offsetting).
Both our residence and the chalets are eco friendly as we are totally off-grid. A 15KW solar cell array on our roof supplies a 28KW storage battery. Basically, we run off the sun between 6.00am and 6.00pm and at night the battery supplies us with our power needs. There are 610K Litres of rainwater storage on the property. The rainwater runs through two microfilters and then a UV filter before it is pumped to the chalets.
For the internal fit-out of the chalets, every light fitting and appliance we chose was scrutinised for its power usage and capacity to communicate with us wirelessly. Being able to monitor each appliances’ power usage on our mobile devices is a great help in adapting to living off-grid. We have also utilised trees grown on the farm for the beautiful Sydney Bluegum flooring, the bespoke handmade fittings in the chalets and all signage on the property.
We have tried to minimise our consumer footprint by installing dispensers for our luxury toiletries and providing a single-use plastic free first morning breakfast hamper for guests including farm fresh eggs and where possible fruit freshly picked from our orchard.
Lastly we have drawn some of our inspiration and design principles from the tiny house and minimalist movements. The design of our eco friendly chalets challenges the mindset that luxury must equal more space, more furniture, more things. Our chalets really do pack a punch when guests see all that they offer in a relatively small space.

What a stay !

Do yourself a favour and make this a stayPosted on Mitch RTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Beautiful location, nestled in a Rosegum plantation just outside of Busselton, far enough that it feels remote without being too far from the town. Lovely cabins with everything needed for a luxury getaway, including modern kitchen, bathroom/showers and an outdoor bath with stunning views! Even got to see some Kangaroo families right near the cabins. - Tilly and MitchPosted on Rachel DonkinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gorgeous chalets, immaculately presented. Andrew & Fran have thought of everything to make it a perfect stay. Thank you so muchPosted on Kyara HuttonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I just had 4 nights away for our babymoon and it was absolutely everything we were hoping for! Peaceful, quiet and private. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous. Being surrounded by all the trees and kangaroos while we sat in the bath or out the front was truly calming. A few little details that we thought were a beautiful touch included the fire place being loaded and ready to go (plus a restock mid stay), welcome chocolates, a variety of coffee pods and a yummy breakfast hamper full of local produce! The granola and honey were delicious! I also loved the smell of the shower products/hand wash and enjoyed reading their booklet on how it all began. We can't wait to go back and would highly recommend the tree chalets if you need a little get away. Thank you again Andrew and Fran! Kyara and Ash 😊Posted on Molly FaraiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our second stay at Tree Chalets this past July. It’s the perfect spot for a winter getaway & our visit this time was just as wonderful as the first. Fran & Andrew greeted us upon arrival and explained how to use the fireplace, and they were very respectful of our privacy for the whole stay. The location is so peaceful and cosy, I felt like I got the opportunity to fully unwind. We loved reading about their sustainability initiatives and it’s awesome that they’re certified with Eco Tourism Australia 🙌 thank you for the beautiful stay, we hope to return one day soon! 🌳Posted on Claire ForsythTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. There are no words to describe how transformative it is to stay at Tree Chalets. I was expecting luxury and tranquility, but I was not expecting the meticulous attention to detail Andrew and Fran provided, and I certainly wasn't expecting to feel so moved by the presence of the rose gum trees. It was such a privilege to spend time in this location, and I was inspired by Andrew and Fran's focus on conservation, sustainability and habitat preservation for all of the animals who call the forest home. We will definitely be back!Posted on Elizabeth WellsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tree Chalets was a magical stay, perfect for our WA Winter getaway, featuring an unforgettable outdoor cast iron bathtub and indoor wood fireplace. Nestled among beautiful white trees, my husband and I woke up every morning in the chalet relaxed and admiring the unique view. Andrew and Fran were extremely friendly and helpful, and were genuinely keen to make our stay special. Thank you for the lovely stay, we can't wait to revisit. Elizabeth and Joseph CPosted on Maddie gazelleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutly stunning place i would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a beautiful romantic getaway !Posted on Mumbi SautiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had such a wonderful stay at Tree Chalets! The space is beautiful, private, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. Everything is thoughtfully designed and spotless, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The location is ideal close enough to explore Busselton and the Margaret River region, but tucked away enough to feel like a true escape. Andrew and Fran were absolutely great hosts and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with all the comforts of home.
