Rekindle your connection with the great outdoors at this private hideaway overlooking the ocean. This unique location offers a front-row seat to the majesty of the Willyabrup Cliffs and is only 200m from the Cape to Cape Track. A stay at Cliffside Caravan offers simple pleasures and serenity aplenty. A lovingly restored vintage 1970's caravan offering a cosy campout for the naturally adventurous. The minimalist set-up offers everything you need, and nothing you don’t, including a double bed, gas burner stove, outdoor compost loo with a fantastic view and outdoor camp shower. And it's pet friendly! Located in the heart of the Margaret River Region wine country, there is plenty to see and do - although sometimes doing nothing is the best option. The perfect base for those looking to walk sections of the Cape to Cape Track or a central, comforting stop for those tackling the full 135km distance. A sunset at the Willyabrup Cliffs is a truly magical experience and a bit of a hidden gem. The property is owned by a local winemaking family who can organise wine and a cheese platter to take the experience to the next level. Your hosts are more than happy to provide their personal recommendations for things to do while in the area. It is a 500m walk from a public parking space - a little bit rocky so best suited to those travelling light. Happy to chat with guests prior to arrival and will do our best to accommodate your needs.

Guests appreciate the cozy and well-stocked caravan, though some mention practical challenges like the walk from the car and occasional weather-related issues.

Cliffy the Caravan is an absolute gem! Perfectly located just a short walk from the ocean, this beautifully maintained caravan had everything we needed for a cozy and stress free getaway. Thoughtfully stocked with all the essentials, it made for such a comfortable stay, allowing us to fully relax and soak in the stunning surroundings. A truly magical experience, we can’t wait to come back!

We had a great time at Cliffy. The only downside was the wet & windy weather, but the caravan kept us warm and dry. Great private location near the breathtaking cliffs and would definitely come back. Just as a heads up for dog owners, there are a lot of prickles and grass seeds around the area to be wary of this time of year.

The stay was wonderful. Caravan has everything you need including a view. Be prepared for the hike from the car to the caravan and make sure to wear proper shoes! But all worth it at the end when you get to sit back and listen to nature. Just beautiful.
