A message to all the Valentine’s Day sceptics out there; I challenge you not to ‘opt out’ until you’ve tried celebrating in Your Margaret River Region! You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more simple and relaxed backdrop for enjoying the most romantic feast day of the year.
Mother Nature will be pulling out all the stops to set the scene; with quiet beaches, tranquil forests and awesome west coast sunsets over the Indian Ocean.
While Nature feeds the soul, our region’s beautiful wineries and restaurants will feed the stomach – which as we know, is the way to the heart! Expect fresh produce, unpretentious flavours, fantastic wine and gorgeous surroundings, all served up in a laid back atmosphere that’s become a signature trait of this corner of Australia’s South West.
