“A sophisticated colonial house with an extensive art collection, perched on a hill offering spectacular views. Individually styled rooms have a traditional feel and the best have heavy four-posters. Sunset wine and cheese is served on the terrace. A tranquil base to explore this seaside city.”

Perth and Western Australia: where to stay
A constantly expanding art collection attracts lovers of the finer things in life to this historic, limestone terrace b&b. Built in 1892, Fothergills sits opposite Fremantle Prison, which was constructed some 33 years earlier and is now one of the state’s most popular tourist attractions.
