  In need of renovation/ maintenance

  23 Jan 2024

  Was a little disappointed with this stay. Had been to visit many years ago and the chalets were in perfect condition back then but have not been maintained. In our chalet- the bath was broken (did not fill), the stove was broken, the main light was broken, a blind was broken… not what you would expect for this price. I emailed the contact provided to inform them but have not received a response. For this price would recommend finding an alternative.

  Stunning location and cabin

  25 Oct 2023

  Absolutely stunning cabin with high ceilings, modern décor, comfortable bed, ample sofa, lovely hot tub, reverse-cycle air-con, gas heater plus a spacious deck with BBQ in a beautiful, tranquil location overlooking a small lake. Hosts provide generous 1st day breakfast provisions and a welcoming bottle of wine. If you don’t want to self-cater there is a gourmet restaurant on the property that serves lunch from Friday to Monday and cafes/restaurants 16 km away in Pemberton.

  My happy place :)

  19 May 2023

  My partner and I first discovered Silkwood Estate in 2018 where we popped in for a tasting and decided to stay for lunch. There is no other way of putting it. The meal blew our mind. The salted caramel iecream with a Zin Liqueur is still the benchmark for my favourite dessert.We came down again during COVID to have a break and to stayed at the Silkwood chalets. It was gorgeous. A luxurious space, with a very comfortable spa, a welcoming fireplace and gorgeous private lake overlooking the Karri Forrest whilst sitting back enjoying one of Silkwoods fabulous wines. The complimentary breakfast provisions were absolutely delicious. Sadly however , due to COVID the restaraunt was closed so we passed our time enjoying the very peaceful bush walks opposite the lake, and exploring Pemberton.Skip to 2023, where on hearing the restaraunt had re-opened we were excited to return for another long weekend. In short, it was sublime. Easily one of the best meals we have ever had anywhere.For starters I had the Lamb, my partner had the grilled asparagus. For mains, we both got the beef. For desserts I had the quince crumble with salted caremel ice cream and my partner had a pavlova with a baked fig soaked in Liqueur (the Zin from Silkwood, which is an absolute must try!)Honestly, the entire experience was outstanding. A stunning meal, with a beautiful setting looking out to the lake and Karri forrest beyond. Literally my only hesitation in writing this review is my apprehension of making it harder for us to get a booking for lunch in the future. But alas, the chef, George, who we had the pleasure of talking to after our meal, continues to do an amazing job with the menu, and im sure bookings will need to be made weeks in advance before too long. A foodies dream and an absolute must visit in WAs South West.

  7 night escape the city break.

  06 May 2023

  This is the third time we have stayed at Silkwood. We went there for our honeymood and liked it so much we have been every year since. They do great deals if you book directly through their website which include stay four nights pay for three or our option, stay seven nights pay for five. The five star architect designed chalets are luxurious and on the accomodation deals you receive a breakfast hamper with lots of goodies which lasts you for quite a while. The 5 chalets are right on the waters edge and are very peaceful if you want that break from the everyday pressures of life. Washer/dryer, dishwasher a huge spa bath and comfortable king sized bed make staying in the chalets a pleasure. The cellar door and restaurant have recently reopened after a COVID hiatus, and although we haven't been there it looks quite enticing. A new addition since our last visit is a wine fridge in the chalet fully stocked with local product and available for purchase (charged to your credit card after checkout). Ducted reverse cycle A/C and gas log fire mean you can stay cool in summer and toasty warm in winter. There is an IGA grocery store in Pemberton which is less than 20mins away so you can always stock up on food and other essentials.

  Very pleasant stay

  10 Feb 2023

  A very pleasant stay in ‘Merlot’ chalet, the first one along from the Restaurent and nicely located / isolated. Beautiful lakeside setting. As we were only staying one night and noticed the Restaurent/tasting cellar was only open for lunch we asked if the chef (George) could prepare us something to cook in the chalet. He produced a mouthwatering dinner with the best steak -Hand delivered to the chalet with everything we needed. Excellent service. Chalet - bed could do with replacing but this did not detract from our enjoyment. . But overall just perfect. We washed a load of clothes but as a previous comment a washing line would have been very much appreciated. Tumble dryer function not the best and clothes dried in a matter of hours outside. Good base to discover the Pemberton wine region. And what better to start with than the Silkwood Walcott Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Highly recommend.
