The Carriage

The Carriage is a small, self-contained stay in the Perth Hills at 1590 Stoneville Rd, Mundaring, run under the Quiet Escapes banner. It suits travellers who want a quiet, nature-focused base east of Perth and are happy to work around a clear set of dog rules rather than a fixed online pet policy.

Dogs at The Carriage

Dogs are welcome by negotiation with the host, so you arrange the details directly with Quiet Escapes when booking rather than through a standard booking form. Well-behaved dogs are allowed inside, but only on tiled or timber floors. They are not permitted in the bedrooms, on carpeted areas, or on any furniture or beds, so bring a bed or mat your dog can settle on in the hard-floor areas.

There is no published flat pet fee. Guests are liable for any damage, and the policy specifically flags steam cleaning costs for carpets if a dog gets onto carpeted zones. Confirm the agreed pet terms and any charges in writing before you arrive, since everything is handled case by case.

The vibe

The Carriage is pitched at quiet escapes rather than busy family trips: a self-contained property in the hills, close to heritage trails and local national parks, where the draw is peace and a bush outlook. If your dog is comfortable settling indoors on its own mat while you are out, the setup works well. The property is one of several Quiet Escapes listings in the area, so if dates do not line up there are alternatives under the same management.

Getting there

Set your GPS for 1590 Stoneville Rd, Mundaring WA 6073, which puts you about 40 minutes from central Perth via Great Eastern Highway and the hills roads. Parking is on site, and the location works as a base for walking the nearby railway heritage trail with your dog before settling in for the evening.

Close by with the dogs

For a coffee stop on the way through the hills, Cafe Mojo Mundaring is a local option. If the fenced-park run suits your dog better, Swan View Fenced Dog Park is a short drive back towards Midland.
