Perth residents often joke that the initials WA in the city address does not stand for “Western Australia”, but “Wait Awhile”. That is how laid-back the city, as well as its residents, are. Perhaps it is due to its isolation from other major Australian cities, perhaps it is due to its economic luck with its numerous mining booms, but everything in Perth feels less hectic, less frantic and utterly carefree. Little wonder that it is a popular vacation destination as travelers come to unwind and enjoy the fine weather and even finer wine from the wineries in nearby Swan Valley. If wine is your passion, then you might want to check out these top 10 Airbnb vacation rentals in the Caversham suburb, which is close to numerous wineries around the valley.
1. Clean holiday cabin at caravan park (from USD 212)
Despite the rural charms of the Swan Valley vineyards, downtown Perth is a mere 25-minute drive away. There you can check out the iconic Bell Tower, enjoy scenic views of the Swan River at the lush King’s Park, or venture even further out to the historic port town of Fremantle at the mouth of the river. If you prefer not to intrude on Swan Valley residents, then this holiday cabin amid a caravan park in Caversham is an ideal option, with clean rooms and decor as well as public swimming pool, a playground and a games room within the park.

2. Quiet guestroom in Lockridge (from USD 33)
Western Australia is a massive state, and to truly appreciate its size, you need to rent a private vehicle to reach the more remote sights. With a car at Swan Valley, you can explore the huge national parks and nature reserves nearby that offer spectacular views all the way to the Perth city center. Having a rented vehicle also means you can consider accommodations that are further away from public transport, such as this snug guestroom in a quiet home in the suburb of Lockridge, right next to Caversham.

5. Charming guestroom near historic riverside building
The Swan River is the lifeblood of the Swan Valley, with many vineyards and wineries lining its fertile banks. The earliest explorers of Western Australia also settled around the region, and there are several historical buildings preserved along the river. For instance, the Woodbridge house in the Midland suburb was once the home of Captain James Stirling, the first governor of the Swan Valley Colony. This charming old-style guestroom for two is within walking distance of the Woodbridge house, and you can also amble along the leafy riverside park for some superb views of the Caversham suburb.
