Churchlane Chalet Albany
Relax in the comfort of our contemporary, yet characterful, fully self contained chalet whilst enjoying a tranquil rural and river outlook.
Churchlane Chalet offers two double bedrooms ( two queen sized beds as pictured) and is configured to suit couples and /or friends seeking a peaceful and relaxing place to enjoy all that our region has on offer. We have a per night rate based on the use of one bedroom with an additional charge for each extra guest. A maximum of four people.
Nestled on the upper reaches of the Kalgan river, a pleasant 15-20 minute drive north east of the Albany CBD, we are perfectly located for those seeking an escape from the hustle and bustle yet still wanting to be close to the city action.
Churchlane Chalet’s quiet riverside location offers guests a range of holiday activities. Sit on the decking with a favorite book, the views and abundant bird life, or canoe the Kalgan river before relaxing in front of a log fire with a local wine . Bush walking, wine tours and pristine local beaches are all close by.
We are only 20 minutes from the magnificent Porongurup Range with it’s wonderful walks and wines. And, for more serious trekkers/nature lovers there are The Stirling Range and Two Peoples Bay National Parks. Also, the stunning Luke Pen Kalgan River trail is at our doorstep. Beach goers are spoilt for choice with Little Beach, Nanarup and Gull Rock only a short rural drive away.
Visit this wonderfully diverse corner of Western Australia’s Great Southern and we know you will love it just as much as we do. We look forward to sharing its wonders and best kept secrets with you.

Will recommend this place to everyone who is looking for a break from city life. Will always look to book here first when visiting Albany. Owners are wonderfull people.
Everything was great about this property. Spotlessly clean, quiet, sunny verandah, wood fire, great kitchen, huge bathroom. This was our favourite stay on our trip to Western Australia.
We loved our stay in this wonderful modern, very well equipped, snug villa in Kalgan, just north of Albany. Beautiful, peaceful surrounds with river access.
Just a 15 minute drive to Albany, but 15 minutes closer to the wonderful Porongurups and Sterling Range.
Highly recommended.
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Churchlane to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary. The chalet was once again very well equiped and set up for our stay. Dee and Steve’s attention to detail makes all the difference! From the fresh flowers and herbs in the vases, to the wood fire being ready to light. Everything was wonderfully thought out.
The welcome gift basket was a very special touch!
Thanks again for a wonderful stay!
A delightfully presented property in a tranquil, picturesque location. Immaculately clean , well equipped & furnished by friendly, helpful owners, strongly recommend
Steve and Dee's place was just perfect. Incredibly clean, well stocked pantry, comfortable beds. Every little detail in house was well thought out. It was definitely a home away from home. Will be coming back again for sure.
Loved Dee and Steve’s chalet, beautiful location and a real home from home. Great option if looking to explore the Porongarups, Albany and Denmark. Highly recommended
Wonderful property, lovely views, extremely neat & tidy with everything you need. Personal touches such as milk, bread, butter, eggs etc etc is so thoughtful especially if you have traveled far & in need of essentials. This is our second stay here & just as relaxing when we were here before.
Thankyou to Dee and Steve for a wonderful stay . Thier chalet is beautiful. The extra touches were so kind and thoughtful ,from the welcome basket of goodies to beautiful fresh flowers . We felt very welcome and it was lovely meeting you .The peace and tranquillity we found in your little haven was just what we needed . Can’t wait to return.
Churchlane Chalet is a home away from home. So well catered for, clean well equiped property. The views from inside & on the verandah is spectacular. On arrival we had fresh eggs, butter, milk & bread. Also there was a basket of goodies - yummy. Dee & Steve are wonderful hosts, everything is provided for. We had a wonderful stay & love to come back.
Churchlane Chalet what can I say other than it was perfect. Nothing was overlooked. Next time we stay I will know not to bring anything with us as there was everything you could need and more. The homemade goodies on arrival were such a nice touch. Thanks to Steve and Dee for making the chalet such a wonderful place that you don’t want to leave
Thankyou Dee and Steve for the most wonderful stay in your beautiful chalet . The roaring log fire on arrival along with your delicious homemade treats were so thoughtful and very much appreciated. The views and wildlife ,peace and tranquility were just what what all needed . Thankyou to Shirley Betty and Thelma for the lovely eggs . We will be back it’s been amazing. Thankyou
Churchland Chalet is the most idyllic place with views from the deck of the Kalgan River, trees, birds (including Blue Wrens!) Everything you need and more is at this Chalet. It is clean, modern & comfortable with a gorgeous log fire. The personable touch of the owners makes it a home away from home. Communication is easy and quick. 5 Stars in everyway, we cannot recommend this place enough. We can't wait to go again. Thank you
Beautifully presented and clean. Very comfortable and located in a quiet location. So many extras provided which were very much appreciated. The best accommodation that we have stayed at by far. We intend to have it as our go to when visiting in Albany in the future.
The place exceeded our expectations. It was a perfectly quiet place with beautiful scenery and the perfect place for a little get away. The option to kayak in the nearby river was awesome as well at petting some cows and horses. The place was really clean and comfy with lots of games to choose from for some evening time fun and the place was well stocked. Look forward to coming back in the future.
The place was just amazing. We were Blown away with how secluded and peaceful the location was.
Our hosts were made sure that every detail was attended to. loved the place
the flowers, candles the bread and sweets made is super special
Churchlane chalet is beautifully designed and well built with quality furnishings.
Dee and Steve are exceptional hosts that have thoroughly thought of every little detail to ensure each guest has a relaxing and very comfortable stay.
The welcome basket was a wonderful surprise as we walked into the kitchen, as were all the freshly picked flowers in vases around the very clean chalet. It's the little things like this that show just how much effort Dee and Steve go to in creating a truly welcoming atmosphere.
The gardens are stunning and full of things to enjoy watching while sitting on the deck. Lots of different birds, butterflies, ducks landing in the pond each morning /afternoon, horses playing in the top paddocks and little bunnies popping in and out of the bushes chasing one another. There was always something to see that made us smile.
The kayaks were also great to be able to use down in the river and the chess board was a big hit too!
Thank you to Dee and Steve for making our stay so memorable.
We look forward to staying again!

We thoroughly enjoyed everything about this property. It was exactly what we were hoping for regarding location and setting, amenities, and that special caring touch from our wonderful super hosts. I hope to return next time we need a 5 star accommodation in the area. Bravo to Dee and Steve! Great effort.
My husband and I stayed here for our wedding night and the following day. It was absolutely wonderful. Dee and Steve went above and beyond, when we got to the chalet there was a hamper of food and drink made up for us. The place was tidy and well equipped. It was such a lovely stay
Churchlane chalet was even better than the photos . The chalet was pristine , clean , well considered with everything thought of with good quality linen and a relaxing comfortable interior . Enjoy the view overlooking the dam with a cup of tea in the morning and relaxing drinks on the porch in the afternoon . Hosts Dee and Steve were warm and inviting . Thoroughly recommended for a relaxing get away .
If you’re looking for a place to unwind by starting your mornings off with a cuppa in the morning on the patio and a wine near the fire in the night, then stay at Dee and Steve’s property. The place was perfectly clean and cosy and the welcome basket and stocked pantry was a treat. Thanks Dee and Steve, we had a great time.
