We invite you to come and visit us on this expansive historic property situated at the entrance to York, Western Australia's first inland town in the heart of the Avon Valley. The town is steeped in history, boasts many wonderful old buildings and is only 97kms from Perth city (a comfortable hour and a quarter's drive).
Hillside was built
in 1911 and formed part of the estate of the pioneering
Edwards family who lived here for many years, conducted
business in York and were finely woven into the fabric
of York society in WA. This is reflected in the wonderful
architecture of this grand old, much loved house conceived
by the famous Sir Talbot Hobbs which in its heyday,
hosted visiting royalty and other dignitaries. |
Today, we continue to lavish it with care
and attention and devote many hours to the continuing establishment
and maintenance of its rambling gardens and extensive grounds.
This is the perfect holiday getaway, with the option of self-contained
cottages or bed and breakfast accommodation. We look forward
to sharing its peace and tranquility with you.
Andrew and Joy Savage
