Holidays In Wa

[Lucy in the Sky]

i want to go away for a weekend but i cant afford anything too flashy, but i would still like to go somewhere nice.

can anyone recommend anywhere?

i dont mind if its north of perth or south of perth... i dont want it to be tooooo far away, but far enough out of perth so i feel im not in perth anymore, if you know what i mean...

moore river it's about an hr and a half north of perth

it's in guilderton or sumthin

went there earlier this year was q uite relaxin n had got alot of chance to swim n kayak n stuff in the river:)

how much?

[J_R32]

if u have the entertainment book, and mandurah is far enough, so go seashells by the marina in mandurah. its like $190 a nite, but sumfing liek 25% off wif the book.

thou..(no offense to mandurah people) theres not much to do there...

if ur willing to drive to dunsborough, bunker bay is a great place...but thats like $200 sumfing a nite..

bunker bay is awesome... stayed there for the weekend once with liz. great place but very expensive

abbey beach resort in busselton is nice also not too expensive either

There is a multitude of little B&B's and chalets for rent all over the great southern. Some of the caravan parks have little permenant vans there for rent for bugger all if you want to go that way. Personally im always up for going bush so its always just the fuel costs.

have a googling see what you find. aka no real suggestions here im either staying with friends down south or driving 5000ks when i go out of town

if you just want to get away somewhere nice an quiet for a weekend try dwellingup plenty of b+bs and cabins for not to much

doesnt tourism wa have a website for this kinda thing and of course theres always whatif

[Lucy in the Sky]

yeah ive been going to a lot of the tourism places - but i just wanted to see what people reccomended

bunker bay would be awesome, the thing is i would go there and want massages and all the day spa stuff to - then id get my bill and have a heart attack.

maybe i will have to do bunker bay, from what i have heard its top notch.

[GWP021]

well all the lil places down margs way are tops back before i was old and single the missus and i loved caves house good accomadation top food and everything nice and close beach winerys national parks micro breweries (my fave)

[Lucy in the Sky]

cool, i will save up and remember all these things -

only thing is, i dont really like wine or beer so it makes the south west have very little attractions for me =[

[IMPORTD]

I'm not into wine or beer either Lucy so understand you completely.

Save up and go to Bridgetown for the blues festival you'll have a ball... usually october/november sometime
