A short time ago we took mother out for a drive to their old farm in Willyabrup which now is the home of Flutes Restaurant and Brookland Valley Vineyard.
The cafe/restaurant is situated over looking the Willyabrup River and a large dam come lake on it. Have a look at the pics below.
Offering beautiful gardens, great food, notice the Peter Pan in the family picture on the right hand side. A popular place for special events, birthdays and weddings.
When the Ensor’s owned it was a 1,000 ac farm stretching from Caves Road to the coast. A most beautiful place with an 80′ gorge country section along the river cutting through granite. They put the local Marron into the lake which grow to a fair size in this large body of water.
Even a great quick stop for a wine tasting or afternoon tea, the Devonshire tea is great.
Imagine the Ensor kids swimming in the dam, surfing the dam using the old beetle (car) with a very long rope………or being towed around by their farm dog who enjoyed a swim in the dam.
Definitely worth a visit whilst staying at Yelverton Brook Eco Spa Retreat & Conservation Sanctuary near Margaret River in Western Australia. A most beautiful region for fine wine and dining options.
