Perup – Nature’s Guesthouse Conferences Are you looking for a place to hold your next conference or retreat? Perup – Nature’s Guesthouse provides you with a great location, the chance to see some of our native wildlife and an accommodation and conference facility catering for up to 50 people. Located in the heart of the eastern jarrah forest, Perup – Nature’s Guesthouse might be just what you’re looking for. Must see Surrounded by the 56,000 hectare Tone-Perup Nature Reserve, Perup – Nature’s Guesthouse is one of the best places in the South West to see native wildlife including numbats, ringtail and brushtail possums, quenda, woylies and chuditch. At dusk, spend some time in the ‘hide’ and look for tammar wallabies. The eastern jarrah forest puts on a colourful display of wildflowers in early spring.
The Per Christensen classroom is set up with tables, chairs, whiteboards, gas outlets for gas burners, projector screen, small kitchen, and a fireplace. This room is ideal as the ‘work centre’, leaving the Homestead for relaxing and meals. With no internet access and limited mobile phone coverage, Perup – Nature’s Guesthouse is an ideal place for that annual conference or leadership retreat with no interruptions.
