Swap city streets for leafy vineyards, rolling hills, expansive beaches and the extraordinary red desert. These are Australia\u2019s best regional escapes.<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australia<\/a> has no shortage of extraordinary cities.\u00a0But the country’s\u00a0most\u00a0memorable\u00a0escapes\u00a0are\u00a0found beyond them\u00a0in\u00a0the misty valleys of the\u00a0Yarra\u00a0Ranges\u00a0and\u00a0the\u00a0sun-baked\u00a0red rock\u00a0of\u00a0Uluru<\/a>. Here are Australia’s best regional escapes, state by\u00a0state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bannisters Pavilion, Mollymook<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A five-minute walk\u00a0from\u00a0Mollymook\u00a0Beach, with a rooftop pool over the building’s edge, Bannisters Pavilion\u00a0offers\u00a0NSW South Coast\u00a0charm with a boutique twist. Breakfast at The Rooftop Bar & Grill, cocktails as the afternoon light shifts, and a courtesy shuttle to sister property Bannisters by the Sea (where Rick Stein’s restaurant and the Spa by the Sea await) tempt you to stay longer than you planned.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
