Western Australia’s picturesque South West region holds a well-earned reputation as a foodie heaven. Margaret River is renowned for its wineries, Manjimup has truffles, Donnybrook is apple country, while Northcliffe boasts a dairy.
It’s no ordinary dairy. Bannister Downs’ architecturally striking creamery is a state-of-the-art, 24-hour automated facility that will next year reopen to visitors, allowing tourists to view its operations and sample its products. And it’s part-owned by Australia’s richest person, Gina Rinehart.
