Food Scene

Located only 30 metres from the apartment! Not only do they have the yummiest muffins but offer a little something different for breakfast or brunch. I would recommend you book as they are very popular. They do also offer night time dining on selected days.

I love this cafe not only for the food but it's setting, Kings Park and Botanical Gardens. After a stroll through Kings Park why not treat yourself to a sumptuous lunch. If you have children there is a fantastic playground just opposite.

Parks & Nature

What can I say this is the most beautiful park I have ever been to, but I am biased!. This 400.6 hectare park overlooks Perth Water and Perth CBD and best of all is only a 10 minute walk up the hill from the apartment! In spring you can see the wildflowers and in summer why not catch an outdoor movie or live music. If you just want to amble through the tall trees then why not do that!
