Bullsbrook Farm Cottages

Bullsbrook Farm Cottages is a self-contained country farm stay in Bullsbrook on Perth's northern edge, about 45 minutes from the city and a short hop to Ellenbrook, with three-bedroom chalets set on a working farm that keeps llamas and other animals. Dogs are welcome with the owner's approval, which makes it a rare family-scale farm stay that takes the dog along.

Dogs at the farm

This is a small, owner-run property without a published pet policy, so contact the host before booking to get approval and confirm any conditions or fee. Dogs are generally fine inside the self-contained cottages if kept off the furniture, and they must stay on a lead outdoors around the farm animals. A pet fee may apply depending on the booking channel, and the farm setting means prompt clean-up is part of the deal.

Max: the llamas decide how relaxed your dog's holiday is. Keep the lead on near the animals, use the open cottage for downtime, and it works well.

The place

The chalets are three-bedroom, one-bathroom setups with full kitchens, BBQs and reverse-cycle air conditioning, built for families rather than polished couples' weekends. Kids get to help feed the animals, and the working-farm feel is the point of staying here rather than an accident.

Getting there and parking

The cottages sit at Bullsbrook, roughly 15 minutes from Ellenbrook's shopping and about 30 minutes from the Swan Valley's wineries and cafes, with off-street parking at the property. A car is essential for this location.

While you're out there

For a secure off-lead run near your base, Westgrove Drive Fenced Dog Park at Ellenbrook is the closest fenced option, and Bully Bazar Market and Cafe is the local coffee stop. In the valley itself, The Naked Fox Wine Bar, Kitchen and Cafe at Henley Brook is a dog-friendly outdoor-table pick. Shetland Park Chalets is the other Bullsbrook stay to compare.
