Great food and reasonably priced.

There is a wide selection of hot foods - pies, pasties & sausage rolls - as well as an excellent selection of delicious cakes and slices.

The vanilla slice is excellent.

This review is for Jewel Cave, Augusta WA

verified email - 16 Aug 2013

This is one of three spectacular caves that are open to be explored in the south west of WA.

The visitor center is very new and modern and has some excellent displays including the 3000 year old skeleton of a Tasmanian Tiger found in the cave. There are ample souvenirs and a cafe with some very nice food and a delicious hot chocolate.

Our guide was Crusty and he had a thorough knowledge of the cave and the history of the area. He was very easy to talk to and happy to continue the conversation after the end of the tour.

The cave is mind boggling with some enormous caverns.

Approximate cost: $22

This review is for Colourpatch Cafe, Augusta WA

Nice healthy wholesome food is served at The Colourpatch cafe in Augusta.

There is plenty of salad with the food and it doesn't feel that you have eaten junk food.

Their chips are well cooked and very nice - not greasy at all.

There is an option to eat in the cafe or buy takeaway.

It is located right on the banks of the Blackwood River so it is a very pleasant place to eat.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse Tours, Augusta WA

verified email - 16 Aug 2013

This is an exceptional tour.

You get the opportunity to climb to the top of the tallest lighthouse on mainland Australia AND go out on the balcony at the top and walk around the tower. The forces from the wing are amazing.

The tour guide tells an excellent story as you wind your way up the 176 steps to the top.

When you conclude the tour have a look around the grounds and stop for a snack at the cafetaria.

Approximate cost: $18

This review is for Turner Caravan Park, Augusta WA

verified email - 14 Aug 2013

This caravan park is spread out along the banks of the Blackwood River.

The powered sites are on grass and each site is a nice size.

The amenities are well cared for and located very close to the sites.

There is an excellent indoor camp kitchen. It has an adjoining outdoor (under cover) barbeque area. The camp kitchen has hot plates, sink, microwave, toaster and kettle. There are picnic tables indoors.

There is a riverside bike path running through the park and a cafe about 100m to the south of the park.

Very nice

Approximate cost: $34

This review is for Lake Cave And Caveworks, Margaret River WA

verified email - 14 Aug 2013

This is a spectacular cave and our guide, Crusty, was an excellent host.

The cave entrance is a LONG way down which means there is a big climb to get back up.

Inside the cave you find that the climb was well worth it. There is a spectacular suspended table as well as many spectacular formations.

The guide turns on and off selected lights to highlight different formations.

Approximate cost: $22

This review is for Mammoth Cave, Margaret River WA

verified email - 14 Aug 2013

This is a massive cave with heaps of spectacular formations.

The caverns are quite spectacular.

This is a self guided tour so you can go at your own pace and there is a narrative to listen to. You get an mp3 player and play each narrative by keying in the number at each location.

After exiting the cave there is a short walk through native Kari forest.

Approximate cost: $22
