the rustic charm of cooks park b&b

check out this stunning location for weddings...

just down the road from our humble home is this gorgeous b&b...cooks park, run by Peter and Maria. besides the scenic location that showcases awesome sunsets across the glass estuary filled with 1000's of balck swans, the stylish and comfortable accomodation, and the incredible hospitality of peter and maria...the grounds boast the historic cooks cottage...a 1862 homestead built by the original settlers...

maria invited us over to see the cottage (heads up also to mike and jen at australia's own fj holdens who called us soon after visiting themselves) and also to promote the grounds for wedding ceremonies for couples who are looking for somewhere a little different..

here are a few images of the homestead...we think its just perfect for many photo opportunities - and especially for a trash the dress session...stay tuned for more details...

check out the crumbling fireplace....ooohhh - i'm getting so excited...then theres the windows and the half restored walls and - oh, just everything!

heres Daisy - doing her best 'bride' pose...he he he - see the wall behind her? it has all old original wall paper, half-peeling etc - just soooooo perfect...

another images of the cottage...so tranquil in the late afternoon...

and heres a few of the b&b...it is surrounded by farmland that horses graze upon and the views are to die for...

15 minutes from bunbury, and 5 minutes from belvedere beach...

choose from a king size waterfront room or a queen size room with rural views...just beautiful...

both rooms share a large well-equipped kitchen and a comfortable sitting area, with water views...

so if you are looking for somewhere different for your ceremony, or if you would like to organise somewhere fantastic for your guests to stay, go ahead and phone maria on 97960505 or visit her web at www.cookspark.com .

and if you would like to contact us about a FREE trash the dress session, possibly with make-up thrown in, go ahead - make the call! its about creation not destruction...that is what is promoted through websites both here and in the states - check them out here and here and here...
