A convention centre is also on the grounds which means, they are perfect for wedding accommodation, as well as work functions.

- A hair dryer, because leaving your hair wet in winter will freeze your brain.
- There is a centre for self-service catering if you so wish, or you can pop along to Willow Grill Restaurant if you leave poochy behind.
- For the humans in the group, you’ll have access to a 9-hole mini-golf course, so you can practice for the World Minigolf Championships.
- If minigolf isn’t your cuppa tea, there’s a giant chess game, Bocce, as well as a playground and swing set for your kids.

Australia Travel Planning Guide
🚑Should I buy Australian travel insurance?
100% YES! — Australia has “free” healthcare but it’s only for citizens and permanent residents. Foreigners visiting need travel insurance in case anything happens on their visit. I like SafetyWing – their Nomad Insurance starts at just $1.50 USD a day!
🚗Should I rent a car in Australia?
Yes — Renting a car is a necessity in most of Australia! If you want to go on road trips or adventures outside of the major cities, and even if you’re staying in a major city, you’ll want to rent a car. If you are visiting Margaret River, it will be even more important that you hire a car, you’ll need it to be able to get around and see all the great attractions and wineries!
🏨What’s the best way to book my Australian accommodation?
My go-to for Australian hotels is Booking.com. Pretty much all registered accommodation use Booking.com (but not necessarily any of the other major booking platforms), and even most of the holiday homes and caravan parks use Booking.com too!
If you’re planning a trip to Australia where you will stay at multiple locations, it’s super handy to have all your accommodation listed in one place, and accommodation owners like Booking.com because it’s easy to contact the guests using the messaging platform if the guest has an international phone number.
I sincerely hope you enjoy your visit to Margaret River!
