Blue Poles Little Grove Albany

Blue Poles is a blue corrugated iron, fully furnished house. The giant wooden poles of Western Australian jarrah were salvaged from Albany's historic deepwater jetty. This combination gives the house its name.

There are 3 large bedrooms - a master bedroom and bathroom upstairs and two large bedrooms (plus extra trundle bed) and bathroom downstairs sleep a total of nine people. There is a spacious games area on the ground floor and separate laundry.

The modern kitchen upstairs adjoins a huge living space that flows out onto a large veranda overlooking a unique stand of coastal karri trees.

The house has reverse cycle air conditioning and the living area features comfortable leather seating, tv, dvd, video and sound system.

There is undercover parking for two cars and a large driveway area suitable for parking a boat or van.

The cost quoted is based on 4 people (see tariff). Extra people incur an additional cost per head. Minimum stay 3 nights.

We built Blue Poles so that when our family and friends were all in the same place at the same time, we would have a lovely, spacious, easy to manage place where we could enjoy each others company.

We hope you will be able to do the same.

Great place for family and friends
We had 5 adults and 3 young teenagers stay for 3 nights. There was plenty of room and a great living are upstairs. Close to the beach and jetty for a quick swim or fish. We all enjoyed our stay, thanks for sharing your lovely property

Golfing Weekend
The house was comfortable for the 3 adult couples in our group with a big A/C that provided plenty of warmth. The location is about 11km out of town but not really a problem. There is a General Store about 1km away which also sells fuel and alcohol. The 3 main bedrooms are large with comfortable Q/S beds. One minor issue is the soap provided does not lather very well ( hard water?) and if soap is provided then shampoo would be handy. Also, the house information does not specify the check out time.

Friends with dogs
Great however because it was so far from the city centre it was a problem because the TV didn’t work (actually unacceptably) and the sailing club ( the only place to go) wasn’t own for food or to watch the footy. Dog friendly but no fenced area for the dogs so actually not dog friendly.

Birthday Trip
Thanks for a great stay, we loved our time at Blue Poles. The whole family came along to help celebrate my birthday and there was plenty of room for us all, as well as our dog who, once he mastered the stairs(!) had an absolute ball. Location was great, easy to get to and it was fantastic sitting out on the balcony morning and night listening to the birds & enjoying our (adult!) kids playing footy in the park - who says no wifi is a bad thing?! Would definitely recommend if you have a large group wanting to spend quality time together in a beautiful spot, hosts were quick to respond to any queries also.

We definitely enjoyed staying at the Blue Poles. The house was very well equipped, spacious and welcoming. Its location was just fantastic, being a short drive to Albany and to the start of many hiking trails. We would not hesitate to book it again.

Great location.
I could highly recommend Blue Poles for anyone visiting Albany. It is so close to most places of interest in and around Albany. Thank you also for allowing us to bring our little Cavoodle. Whilst she was a little tentative on the stairs initially, she soon mastered them! We loved our stay and wished we could have stayed longer.

Great location in a large spacious home with almost all the necessities
The home was a great stay for a party of 10 (6 adults, 4 kids under 6). The common area was spacious, the kitchen well equipped and the bedrooms were clean and functional. Upstairs and downstairs bathrooms were great for so many people. The location was great, right in front of the beach / sailing club where I got some light fishing done (caught some to supplement dinner). Close enough to Albany town Centre that food was available within a short time. The ad already mentions no wifi and dishwasher so it's not hiding anything. No dishwasher was fine, quick and simple to share dish washing duty between everyone. The no wifi / home internet did hit a little due to the poor reception in the general area. All of us were with Optus and the reception was spotty at best. You might fair better with Telstra or maybe even Vodafone but Optus network users might struggle with solid internet connection. Overall experience was excellent and would definitely recommend.

Wifi?
We loved staying at Blue Poles. A large well designed house with big rooms. Very comfortable and in a very attractive location. Dishwashers should be standard equipment in modern houses but the house doesn’t have one. A member of our group needed to work on holiday… alas there is no wifi. It would not take much money to rectify these annoying problems with Blue Poles. Otherwise an excellent place to stay.
