This cache has been archived.

Balayang: I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, ON 4YOUNG&OLD, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

Geocache Description:

The owners Dawn and Wally Lewis have given us permission to put the cache there and will be very happy to see you.

Very picturesque countryside. This cache takes you down a small country lane into an area which was originally just dense bush in the 1920's. Well worth a visit just to sample the wine and browse around the shop. You won't be sorry.

Watch out for the sheep and chooks.

In 1922 Harry Lewis an artillery horseman in the British Army emigrated to Australia under the soldier settlement scheme and took up land in the Carbanup region of the Southwest, Western Australia. He began the arduous task of carving out of the dense bush a small family farm.

Sixty years on, third generation farmers Wally and Dawn Lewis finally completed what Harry started, but realised to survive as farmers they either had to find a much larger property, or radically change their existing business.
They opted for the latter and in 1986 began planting vines and flowers. Today there are five acres of flowers, and 18 acres of vineyard with grape varieties: Semiilion, chardonnay, sauvignon blance, cabernet franc, and shiraz.

After years of providing fruit to other wineries a dream was realised in 2006 when they opened a cellar door, complementing their exsiting family run flower emporium. The beautiful labels designed for each wine are a reflection on this new direction the property is heading; a future of beautiful flowers and superb wines.

Anniebroook takes its name from the small creek that meanders through the property on its journey to the Indian Ocean
