When Caves House Hotel was built in 1903, its gardens were conceived for a different era - one where an afternoon stroll was not optional, but expected. More than 120 years later, the 4.5-hectare estate remains one of the property’s most quietly remarkable features.
As a guest of Caves House Apartments, you have unrestricted access to the grounds. Step out from your balcony, cross the lawn, and the gardens are yours to explore.
The formal gardens surrounding Caves House Hotel are heritage-listed and have been tended across multiple generations of custodians. Native birds — wrens, honeyeaters, twenty-eights - move through the canopy with the familiarity of residents. In spring, the flowering is extraordinary. In winter, the bare geometry of the plantings takes on a different, quieter beauty.
The gardens are not manicured into submission. They feel lived-in, generous, and entirely real.
From the gardens, a path winds down through the bush and onto Yallingup Beach - a ten-minute walk known locally as the ghost trail. It is one of those rare connective routes that feels like a reward in itself: shaded, quiet, and delivered to the beach without the car park.
At the end of it: the famous Yallingup lagoon, a surf break that has been drawing riders since the 1950s, and one of the South West’s most beautiful stretches of coast.
The heritage façade of Caves House Hotel forms the backdrop to the gardens and to the view from your balcony. Built in its current form in 1938, the art deco building is a registered heritage site and one of Western Australia’s most architecturally significant regional properties.
Guests of the apartments walk past it every morning. Some stop. Most linger.
