Relaxation and Romance

From big things, little things (sometimes) grow...

In early 2007 we had big plans for what amounted to a small resort here; we'd managed to get the local Town Planning Scheme amended, and had made a start on some of the infrastructure and engineering. Reality intervened when Colin's job ended abruptly, swiftly followed by a financial onslaught from the GFC, which saw the grand plans shelved. We opened a weekend cafe in a building we already had, and came up with the name "Mumbles" because it had some synergy with our location, Mumballup, and as a bit of a parody on common cafe names like "Whispers" and "Rumours". The cafe was well received by its patrons, but there were not enough of them, so we converted it to a studio apartment "Paperbark", and started a major renovation of a flat at the other end of the building, which became "Tea Tree". Mumbles checked in its first guests in October, 2013; since then the business has flourished, with continuous improvements of our own initiative and the suggestions of our guests.

We're rather glad that Mumbles turned out the way it did. It's small, personal and friendly, "boutique" in every sense of the word, and a place where you can come and "turn down the World" a little. We look forward to seeing you soon.
