This superb property, on a working cattle farm, is unique. Chalet Arunga is part bed and breakfast and part self contained. This is a five star chalet with a difference- offering stylish interiors, original artworks, fresh flowers and a fantastic view across the property. The chalet's extensive garden seems to flow into the paddocks because there are no fences to keep the cattle out, just a single electric wire fence- one of the reasons the chalet is not available to families with children.

Nearby to Chalet Arunga
Five minutes away, is Cosy Corner Beach and the adjacent West Cape Howe National Park, which includes part of the Bibbulmun Track and some spectacular cliffs and bays.

Torbay is an area rather than a town. It was originally a site for timber milling and there was some whaling at Cosy Corner. There is still a fishing camp at the beach in summer. It is an area which has been neglected in the rush to develop around Albany and Denmark but which is starting to come into its own.
