Just a 30-minute drive from the city, Swan Valley is something of a creative hub for over 150 local businesses ranging from world-class wine producers to dynamic studios. Sample the artisanal produce: think cheese, chocolate, ice cream and much more. Wine aficionados, in particular, will be spoilt for choice by the numerous vineyards – but Mandoon Estate is especially recommended by the locals. If you’ve got children, head to nearby Caversham Wildlife Park to cuddle and feed Australia’s native animals.
