One of Australia’s top towns to visit in 2026 is for all to see and love and its a morning drive
from Perth 👀✨

Recently named one of Australian Traveller’s Top 100 Towns to Visit in 2026, the historic town of York is packed with heritage charm, scenic countryside, cosy cafés and fascinating history - making it the perfect country day trip or weekend escape from Perth 🤎

As Western Australia’s oldest inland town, York is full of character, with beautifully preserved colonial buildings, rolling hills and welcoming country hospitality.

Here are a few must-do experiences while you’re there:

🏛️ York Town Hall: Built in 1911, this beautiful heritage building is home to the York Visitor Centre. Stop in to grab maps, find out what’s happening around town or chat with the friendly local team for recommendations before exploring.

⛰️ Mount Brown Lookout (Wongberl): One of York’s most breathtaking spots, offering sweeping 360-degree views over the town, farmland and surrounding hills. You can drive to the top or tackle the 7.5km return hike. During autumn and winter, the valley is often covered in magical morning mist.

🚗 York Motor Museum: Home to one of Australia’s finest collections of vintage, veteran and classic cars, motorcycles and memorabilia, including vehicles that cruised the roads more than 100 years ago.

⛓️ Residency Museum: Step back in time and discover York’s rich history inside the last remaining section of York’s Convict Depot, with fascinating exhibitions and historical displays (open Sat only)

🍞 Old Flour Mill: A beautifully restored 1892 landmark that was once the largest flour mill in Western Australia. Today it’s a vibrant stop for coffee, scones and local shopping at the Flour Mill Emporium - full of antiques, crafts and collectables.

And, while you’re there, wander the heritage-lined streets, browse antique stores and local boutiques, grab coffee or lunch at one of the historic pubs or cafés, and enjoy a stroll along the Avon River and Swinging Bridge 🍂
To really appreciate your time in York you can stay at one of our beautiful country cottages or for a more luxury experience Burnley House.
