Boughshed

West Coast Australia


The views are fabulous (and the visiting birdlife is prolific – just don't feed it!). Stylish Boughshed has plenty of areas in which to nurse a coffee or drink, and menus range from buffet/à la carte breakfast to light lunches and some creative dinner options, such as Shark Bay blue swimmer crab with linguini and twice-cooked pork belly. Reservations recommended.
