◎ Margaret River mouth, Prevelly
◇ An independent guide⌖ Seven bases, one extraordinary region◷ Less rushing. More exploring.

Where will you feel at home?

A couple of choices. A clearer place to start.

FIRST, FIND YOUR PLACE

Same region. A different kind of stay.

Town, coast or countryside? Start with how you want your days to feel.

THE EVERYDAY-EASY BASE

Margaret River town

Dinner nearby, useful shops and a central starting point for coast, forest and wine days.

The trade-off
The town is inland. Choose your address carefully if walking to dinner matters.

FOR SALTY, SLOW MORNINGS

Prevelly & Gnarabup

A coastal stay for beach time, ocean views and relaxed days near Margaret River.

The trade-off
Meals, shops and tour pickups need an address-by-address check. A car adds flexibility.

A WINE-COUNTRY STARTING POINT

Cowaramup & countryside

A small-town or rural setting for a slower stay and selected cellar-door outings.

The trade-off
A countryside address can mean driving for almost everything. Arrange tasting transport.

Regional photographs: Boranup forest, Prevelly coast and Naturaliste Ridge vineyard. Images show the wider setting, not accommodation properties.

A LITTLE PLANNING. A LOT MORE HOLIDAY.

You don’t have to
fit it all in.

The best place to stay is the one that brings your favourite days closer. Choose a base, pick a few nearby stops, and leave room for whatever catches your eye.
