Join our fun, musical family in the Perth Hills, Australia

  Descripción

  We are a family of 7 and live in an old homestead property in the village of Mundaring up in the Perth hills.
  We are Mary-Jo (a teacher), Daniel (a musician), and 3 gorgeously chaotic kids, aged 4, 5 and 6. They're beautiful, playful, and mostly well-mannered, and we're bringing them up in a traditional, minimal screen-time household. Granny Jo was diagnosed with dementia a few years ago, and requires low level supervision, but lives in the house as we build the granny flat, and keeps the home warm, the chickens fed.
  
  Mundaring is a lovely semi-rural village just over half an hour from the city. It is bursting with charm with lovely shops and every amenity we'd need, even a magical open-air cinema in the summer. It is surrounded by regional and national parks and landmarks including the iconic Mundaring Weir and Lake Leschenaultia is a short drive away.
  
  Restaurant wise, look no further for quintessential colonial-era Aussie taverns such as Mundaring Hotel, Mundaring Weir Hotel, Parkerville Tavern... and those are just a few. Café Mojo is must-visit stop at the bottom of the street and there are no fewer than three bakeries providing delicious bread, pies and pastries for you to enjoy.
  
  The Heritage Trail, reclaimed from the old railway track, links our home to the Bibulman hiking track and you can walk or cycle to your heart's content.
  
  Amazingly, Mundaring is only 15 minutes' drive from Midland, which has a large rail terminus straight to Perth (and on to Fremantle) and there is even a bus stop around the corner from our house.
