Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- Karen SPerth, Australia58 contributionsFabulous view, from all sides. We took folder chairs and a couple of beverages and it was very pretty. Google what time sunset was going to grace us. As soon as the sun set down in July the chill set in. So rug up. Dogs allowed.Written 18 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DiggerDealsMaddington, Australia116 contributionsThis museum is a standout in how to display local history.
Very reasonable admission fee of $5 per person, less for seniors and children.
Well laid out with activities about history for children. Impressive and respectful record of settlement narratives about local people. The use of the building for the resident magistrate and later the hospital nurse's quarters is described especially well.
Absolutely worth a visit if you are in York.Written 15 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Good view point to take pictures and to lead across to cemetery and walk up to Mount Brown.Written 5 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- FosseboyWestern Australia, Australia643 contributionsBought our tickets for the Noongar Yarn here. Gave us loads of useful information. Friendly staff. Great new volunteer on first day on Saturday.Written 4 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jeff SPerth, Australia1,623 contributionsA very serious eye opener if you’re interested in the history of the area. I certainly came away a lot wiser than I went in.
It looks like just another building from the outside but it’s massive with courthouse, jail cells, artwork, stables, living quarters etc etc. So much more than we expected and well worth the entry fee.Written 29 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Just standing outside the front gave me the creeps.Written 15 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Miles PPerth, Western Australia, Australia26 contributionsWe attended a superb jazz set in the garden, and enjoyed coffee and snacks here a couple of times. The gallery was turned over to high quality Aboriginal artists.Written 29 September 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- gfsc5Perth, Australia1,786 contributionsWe stayed at Faversham House overnight on a Friday and spent some time in these unexpected gardens just across the road prior to leaving. They were established a number of years ago as evidenced by the size of many of the plants. The focus is on native plants ranging from trees to shrubs to groundcovers. A number were in flower when we visited. The garden is tended and there were some recent replanting to replace plants that had died. It's quite a large garden but with a number of meandering paths to follow. Worth a visit if you're into native WA flora. There was a surprising number and range of very healthy plants in evidence.Written 10 October 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Dan LBunbury, Australia8,538 contributionsWe noted on the Monday that weekday services were held at 9.00am. Arriving at 9.40am on 25/08/20 we found that the church was closed and had to be satisfied with admiring the exterior of the church and nearby historical buildings. The original church, now the Church Hall, dates to 1859. The original Presbytery was built in 1874, destroyed in 1894 with the replacement constructed that same year. The Convent School dates to 1873 and the Church to 1887.
A former Irish Fenian, Joseph Nunan, builder and architect, designed the building. Work on the tower was not completed until 1909. The architecture is described as Victorian Academic Gothic, the most impressive features being gothic arches, the bell-tower, rose window and the ornamentation evident on the exterior. Such a shame that I did not get to see the interior that features timber work, organ and stained glass windows.Written 2 September 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The owner was watching tv and eating amid the collection so was unable to look at some items.Written 27 September 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
