Steve Collins chats to Resort Manager Mike Stanton.
Nestled in the hills which abut the Swan Valley, close to Perth, Western Australia, is the Novotel Vines Resort, a combination of champion golf course and luxury resort accommodation.
With two 18-hole golf courses, and even an 18-hole mini golf course, the Novotel Vines Resort has been a popular place for Perthites to have a pleasant break for many years.
Near neighbours include mobs of kangaroos who call The Vines home. They are impossible to miss, especially in late afternoon. You can normally see dozens of the roos, and they are so used to humans they do tend to ignore us.
The Novotel Vines Resort is a very special and unique place to visit. Itâs ideal for simply relaxing, golfing or indulging in other sporting pursuits. Thereâs fine dining at the resort, and in the Swan Valley. There are some beautiful drives through the hills and the Chittering Valley nearby.

Steve Collins chats to Giselle Whiteaker of Journey Beyond about The Ghan luxury train.
Australia is a huge country, and one of the best ways to go from south to north through the centre is to take the luxury train called The Ghan.
The train runs from Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory (and vice versa), and is a journey that will both impress and surprise you. It is not just a train trip, but a wonderful experience that takes place both onboard the train and during excursions off the train in places such as Coober Pedy, Alice Springs and Katherine.
Travelling on The Ghan is a true adventure that is completed without any hardship whatsoever.

Steve Collins reminisces about his visit to El Questro, a large working cattle station and tourist park in the East Kimberley region of Western Australia.
Measuring 80 km north to south and 60 km east to west, El Questro is big enough to be the worldâs 29th smallest country. Scenically, it is far more impressive than most of those countries it dwarfs.
The reasons for that is that it is home to many very impressive gorges, rivers, creeks, waterfalls, thermal springs and an abundance of Australian tropical flora and fauna, much of which canât be seen elsewhere.
