JahRoc Gallery has something for everyone. Fine furniture, wonderful paintings, glorious glass and beautifully crafted jewellery. I have purchased furniture from this gallery in the past and the piece I bought is one of my favourite items. Now that the intrastate restrictions are lifting I, for one, am looking forward to another visit very soon.

I booked this workshop for my wife and I, plus my daughter and her husband. We had a great time learning how to make the prints and we were surprised that some of our prints looked really good. Frank has a friendly demeanour, is very knowledgeable and also a good host. Frank (or should say his wife) baked a lovely sugar free and dairy free banana cake for us, which catered some dietary issues in our group. We also had some yummy breadsticks, which I haven't seen before in Australia, i.e. they were more like the ones we find in France and Switzerland. If you are unsure whether to do the printmaking course with Frank, I would encourage you (irrespective of age) to have a go. I don't think you will regret your decision.

A completely new experience has opened it’s doors in the Margaret River Region, this will be a must see when visiting the South West region. A collection of weird and puzzling eccentricity.

We loved our visit to wow illusions so much!! I have a 3 year old and nearly 5 year old. It was such good fun & lots of laughs even for us adults! The owners are so lovely, very friendly and great energy to create a fun atmosphere. We also enjoyed the playground and bought delicious goodies to take home from their cereals, nuts & local produce range in the cafe attached. Highly recommend and will be back with more friends and family to support this gorgeous family owned business.

The current exhibition is part of the Scratching the Surface exhibition shown at the Larence Wilson Art Gallery at UWA. It's some of the best of Janet Holmes à Court's art collection. So much of the display is by West Australian artists which is great to see, particularly the Indigenous art.

It's a must to give this establishment a wonderful review! The gallery is very professional and has interesting and high quality works on display. but the best thing was the wonderful meal - a three course degustation with choices in all courses and for a very reasonable price. Our party of eight covered all the choices and all were delighted with their meal!Inventive ,interesting and delicious food.. All served by a jovial, friendly and ever obliging host. You could not fault anything - friendly ,obliging staff,lovely surroundings and beautiful food ! a seamless operation. rare in these times .And it didn't break the bank! i hesitate to write this as it may mean we can't get in next time.

We visited Bellview Shell Museum while we were in Margaret River. We didn’t expect much before paying the visit, but to our pleasant surprise, there are tens of thousands of seashells and other specimen from all over the world on display. The collection is huge in quantity & rich in variety, with excellent quality and labelling. We had a chance talking to both Peter and Kath, very impressed by Peter’s love and passion of ocean and enriched by their knowledge about wonderful sea creatures. There are also good quantity & quality of items for sale, we bought quite a few pieces including some hard to get items which are now proudly displayed in our house ????. It’s definitely worth a visit, the door price is $8.00 for adult, $4.00 for kids. The price is very reasonable for what you could see and learn there. Highly recommended.
