This retreat south of Perth is steeped in nature, from interior materials to the surroundings. You can relax and luxuriate in a deep, stone bath set before a lush courtyard. If you prefer ablutions in nature, rooms have outdoor showers too. The Empire, a former farmhouse by a river, is centred on a spa. Doubles from $295 (€200).
