Hogwarts of Gracetown
Marmaduke is great property for dog owners and folk with small children who like secret stairs and passageways. The upper deck was lovely. The dog had a great time chosing which stairs to bring back his toys. The beds were comfy, the kitchen well stocked with everything you need, and sunsets were lovely.

Location with everything you need
It was great staying in Tony’s place in gracetown for Easter. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay and heaps of room for 2 families. We loved watching the sunset from the top balcony and enjoyed the table tennis tables. The kitchen has more than what we have a home. A beautiful home. Location is also great. Short walk to town and beaches and we enjoyed the Easter festivities on at the hall a short walk away

Home away from home.
Beautiful location. I totally reccomend this place for families. The owner has made everything so easy. Have a barbeque on the bl Balcony, chuck the dishes in the dish washer. All you have to wash by hand is the pots and trays. There is so many rooms and seperated spaces so you can easily stay with another family or grandparents, uncles etc. There is so much to do in the house itself. Every room and section has Telivisions. Separate bathrooms, toilets, and an outdoor accessed bedroom for complete seperation. There are multiple kitchens and food prep areas. Really great place for us. Thanks again.

The house was fully equipped. If you forgot anything you could be sure to find it in this house. Would be great for a family with children or even two families. Three showers, four toilets. Communication with the owner was excellent. I have nothing negative to say about this property. Will be back for sure!

A bit of everything
The house has a bit of everything for everyone. It was well stocked, lots to keep you busy and the kids very entertained, toys, games and adventures for everyone or just sit around the fire and watch a movie. Quirky layout and some steep steps for the elderly, but everyone had a very comfortable sleep and enjoyed the views and ample room with peace and quiet. Not stayed in Gracetown before, but this was very pleasant. Kids enjoyed fishing and the beach and rocks. Would stay again.

Property is well equipped in the kitchen & bathroom with everything you need. Great and quiet location, can't fault the short walk to the beach 🙂 Couldn't find the dart board but we had fun with the pool table and table tennis in the evenings so it wasn't missed! There was an issue with our stay but owners are aware & are onto it.

Ladybird Foundation volunteers at Tour de Gracetown
Our group of 6 (3 couples) stayed for 2 nights at Marmaduke House which was a perfect home base for us as Ladybird Foundation volunteers assisting at the 2022 Tour de Gracetown social community bike ride. We were able to walk the short distance from the house to the Start of the event at Gracetown Hall carrying our banners so very convenient! The house is very well-equipped and comfortable. A home-away-from home with all the facilities we wanted. The views out to the water are great! This was our second stay and we will be back again!

Marmaduke House birthday celebration!
We really enjoyed our stay at Marmaduke House! We were 7 adults + 2 dogs and stayed for 4 days in Gracetown. The house is very well equipped, with 3 bathrooms, 2 staircases, queensize beds in every room, firewood ready to use and even a drinking bowl for our dogs! The kitchen had plenty of utensils and cookware and the pooltable was used continuous with a frequent swap to the table tennis tables in the shed. Tony was easy to approach, quick in response and very helpful. Location is just 5 -10 minutes walk from the beach. I had a great birthday celebration at Marmaduke house and I can highly recommend this house!

Weekend in Gracetown
Our group consisted of two couples volunteering as part of a community bike ride based in Gracetown. The location of this property was very convenient and a short walk from the event. The property was very comfortable, clean and well-equipped and had great views of Cowaramup Bay from the upper level deck. It was ideal for our small group of four.
