Fire Restrictions
At certain times of the year in Western Australia, the Shire imposes restrictions on fire pits (including campfires), depending on the season and the current fire danger rating. The season starts from the 9th of November to the 12th of May.
Residents and visitors are responsible for understanding and abiding by all fire restrictions. Penalties for non-compliance apply.
For more information, please visit the "Burning Periods and Fire Danger Ratings" section on the Shire Augusta & Margaret River website
Amenities
We like to provide you with an initial supply of toilet paper, body wash, oil, salt and pepper sachets, tea bags, coffee sachets, bin liners, dishwashing liquid, washing powder etc. upon arrival. These items are complementary and additional supplies of these are available at any of the three supermarkets in town River Fresh IGA, Coles and Woolworths.
Louvers on balcony
When closing the timber louvers on the balcony, please make sure you close the louver shutters first before sliding the panels closed. If the louver slats stay open they will catch on the frame as you slide them close and may break.
Herb Garden
When in season, please feel free to help yourselves to the herbs growing in the wicking beds (parsley, sage, basil, thyme...) in Autumn/Winter time they seem to be growning like crazy.

Rubbish / Bins
There are 3 bins outside the house. Please make sure to put your rubbish in the bins before you leave so we can avoid ants from moving in.
The bin with the yellow lid is for recycling.
The bin with the red lid is for all other general waste.
The bin with the light green lid is for all organic waste including food scraps.
Smoke Alarms
This is fitted with a hard wired smoke alarm(s) with a battery back-up. Excessive smoke from cooking may set off the alarm. To turn off press the central button for a short period of time. If the alarm is continually making a regular ‘beep’ noise every 60 seconds it requires a new backup battery. Please advise our office so we can make the necessary arrangements for you.
