Located 210 kilometers (124 miles) south of Perth is the small town of Donnybrook. Donnybrook came into the limelight in the late 19th century, during one of the nation’s gold rushes. Disappointed miners who decided to stay after the excitement cooled off turned their skills to growing fruit, hence creating an industry that led to the town being known as the apple capital of the west today. Given the diverse heritage, natural beauty, and sensational tastes offered by the town, it was obvious that a tourism industry will follow. A wide variety of Airbnb vacation rentals now await holidaymakers and travelers in Donnybrook, Australia, so read on to find out more!
