My Home Town

Our home is situated in Ashbury, which is an inner city suburb of Sydney. We are very close to numerous amazing restaurants, cafes and cinemas. 10 mins by bus or car takes you to Newtown, a cultural hub near the University of Sydney, overflowing with restaurants, clothes stores, arts and crafts shops and bookstores. Although we are in a suburban area close to parks, we are still only a reasonably short drive to beautiful beaches and bays. A 45 min drive south will get you to the Royal National Park; a treasure trove of natural beauty, windswept beaches and amazing native vegetation, where you can experience hiking in the Australian bush, as well as encountering some local wildlife!
