In
the Warren Blackwood region of Western Australia,
366 kilometres south of Perth and 30 kilometres from
the coastal settlement of Windy Harbour.
Northcliffe,
a small rural community in the Shire
of Manjimup, close to the communities of Pemberton
and Quinninup,
must be one of region's best kept secrets.
Take
a break in Northcliffe on your way from the wine
region of Margaret River to the Tree Top Walk in
Walpole. Have a relaxing stroll in the virgin
karri forest and enjoy
the local wild flowers or visit the Northcliffe
Pioneer Museum for a glimpse into the past.
Northcliffe
lies in the lower south west of Western Australia in
the Pemberton vine growing region, surrounded by karri,
marri and jarrah forests. It is a great place to enjoy
bushwalking, mountain bike and horse riding, fishing,
birdwatching, four wheel drive adventures or just being
relaxed and at peace. |

Northcliffe
with its easy going lifestyle and pristine natural
environment enjoys an abundance of flora and fauna
found nowhere else in the world and is close to the
extensive and unspoilt coastline of the D'Entrecasteaux
National Park. Distanced from the values of urban lifestyles,
Northcliffe is a place where home and work often have
equal value, people get involved in community activities
and are passionate about local issues.
Northcliffe
had a tough birth, beginning its life with Group Settlement
in the 1920's. It has remained out of the main stream,
and has learnt to go it alone and be self sufficient.
There
is much to quietly celebrate as the community moves into
the 21st century with determination to thrive and enjoy a
very special lifestyle in a beautiful corner of Western Australia.
Here
you will find a quiet place to relax for a few days, weeks,
months or stay forever - well,
who knows! |
