This charming suburb is famed for its lush golf courses, particularly the championship layouts at The Vines Resort, and its proximity to over 40 cellar doors, artisan food producers, and boutique breweries. Visitors can spend lazy afternoons tasting award-winning wines, enjoying gourmet picnics among vineyards, or teeing off against a backdrop of rolling hills. The Vines itself is a quiet, leafy haven with modern homes and a village atmosphere, ideal for couples, families, and golf enthusiasts. The nearby Swan Valley provides a rich tapestry of experiences: from chocolate factories and cheese makers to wildlife parks and heritage trails. While The Vines lacks a town centre, its resort offers fine dining, spa treatments, and accommodation. The pace here is unhurried, making it a perfect base for exploring the valley's culinary treasures or as a stopover before venturing into Perth's urban attractions.",[10,13],{"key":11,"value":12},"Police","999",{"key":14,"value":15},"Ambulance","112",[17,20,23,26,29,32,35,38,41,44,47,50],{"key":18,"value":19},"Do I need a visa?","Most visitors require an eVisitor visa (subclass 651) or ETA.
