Club Hotel

The "Historic" Club Hotel. In Collie, WA, Forest Street.
Built in 1908, The Club is the town's oldest hotel, with many stories to share. And remained the only hotel on Forest Street, The main street of Collie.
The Club Hotel reminds me of fo the movie. High Noon (with the ear-worm melody Do not forsake me, My Darling.

Collie was the home to the Nyoongar Aboriginal People. Before Captain Stirling and his cronies led a party into the area to terrorize and murder The Aboriginal People in 1829.

Discover the real! Australia at a WA Country Pub.
Next time you're passing through a country town, head for the wide verandahs and cheery atmosphere of the local country pub. It's here you'll discover the soul of a town – where the beer is cold, yarns are spun and history begins.
Country pubs across WA are brimming with character.  Usually, the local pub was one of the town's first buildings and is often located on the main street. These grand old buildings are known for their heritage architecture. Wide verandahs make the most of any cooling breezes – the perfect place for a cold beer or glass of wine.
Inside you'll find locals enjoying a quiet drink and catching up on the events of the day. You might also see photos from WA's glory days of gold fever, pioneers, local football and community spirit.
It's easy to get caught up in the great pub atmosphere, so book in and stay a night or two. Many country pubs offer upstairs rooms that spill out onto the balcony – a great spot to watch the sunrise or enjoy a hearty, cooked breakfast.
