The Vines is a suburb of Perth in the Swan Valley region of Western Australia, developed as a country club estate in 1987. The suburb straddles the west side of the Ellen Brook. Homes consist of mostly large lots of 14–1 acre (0.10–0.40 ha) situated around the golf courses. The Vines was approved as a suburb name in 1996. [2]

The Vines is home to a four-star resort and country club that encompasses two hotels: the Novotel Vines [3] and the Sebel Swan Valley. [4] The resort hosts two 18-hole golf courses, The Lakes course and Ellenbrook course, which both traverse throughout the suburb; both are world class championship courses. [5]

The Vines Resort and Country Club has been host to international golf tournaments: the Heineken Classic 1993–2001, Johnnie Walker Classic 2006 and 2009, and the Lexus Cup 2007. [6]

There are no shops, schools or facilities in The Vines; the suburb relies on neighbouring Ellenbrook and Aveley for these services.

Ellenbrook is a northeastern suburb of Perth, Western Australia, about 30 km (19 mi) from Perth's central business district (CBD), located within the City of Swan. Ellenbrook, and its neighbouring suburbs of The Vines and Aveley, are unusual for Perth in being a significant distance from neighbouring suburbs. Given this relative isolation and the distance from the CBD, Ellenbrook has been designed and developed as a self-sustainable community. Since the upgrade of Gnangara Road and the completion of the Tonkin Highway Northlink, access to Ellenbrook has improved. The Morley–Ellenbrook railway line is well underway as at June 2021 and this will enable better public transport. At the time of the 2016 census there were 22,681 people living in the gazetted suburb, by June 2018, it was estimated that the urban population for Ellenbrook and surrounds had grown to 41,382. It is envisioned that Ellenbrook will eventually become a satellite city, with a population of 80,000.
