Margaret River Accommodation
 Margaret River is a town in the South West of Western Australia, located in the valley of the eponymous Margaret River, 277 kilometres south of Perth. The surrounding area is the Margaret River Wine Region and has become known for its wine production and tourism, attracting an estimated 500,000 visitors annually. In earlier days the area was better known for hardwood timber and agricultural production.
Margaret River is the foremost wine region in the South West Australia Zone, with nearly 5,500 hectares under vine and over 138 wineries. The region produces just three percent of total Australian grape production, but commands over 20 percent of the Australian premium wine market. Several hundred caves are located near Margaret River, all of them within Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park. Six of these are open to the public.
