Berry

The quaint village of Berry, located in the Shoalhaven region of NSW South Coast, oozes charm and is a favourite for Sydneysiders seeking a quick country escape. Enjoy top restaurants with scenic views, heritage buildings and elegant places to stay on the doorstep of picturesque wineries, gorgeous beaches, wonderful walks and scenic drives.
You will definitely be impressed by Berry’s food and wine experiences, as well as monthly markets, festivals and fairs.

Amble along Queen Street, Albert Street and Old Creamery Lane, and browse for locally made gourmet products, sweet treats, regional wines, homewares and collectables.

Stop by the Milkwood Bakery for a gourmet pie or sausage roll, high quality breads and baked goods that are worth travelling for.

Pick up delicious cinnamon doughnuts from the Berry Donut Van, a local institution found on Queen Street. This place is ridiculously popular, but the fresh hot cinnamon donuts are mouth-wateringly yummy.

From Berry, join a cellar door tour of the local wine region. Located 12km from Berry, Two Figs winery sits proudly at the top of one of Mount Coolangatta’s foothills overlooking the Shoalhaven River and offers a simply breathtaking view of the river and beyond.
Berry is just over two hours’ drive from Sydney at the end of the spectacular Grand Pacific Drive. You can also take the train from Sydney to Berry, a scenic journey of around three hours.

Sapphire Coast Day Trips: Pambula

Image
Another timeless day dawns at Pambula, a name derived from the Yuin Aboriginal word meaning “Two Waters”. The pretty coastal village of Pambula (pop 1,150) is big on history, with the discovery of gold in local rivers in the mid 1800’s. Some of Pambula’s lovely historic buildings date back to this industrious time, with bull-nose verandahs, a town clock and lovingly tended street gardens. It’s a bustling little place, and with over one hundred businesses it’s surprising and refreshing not to see any chain stores or traffic lights. Just over five hours drive from Sydney, three hours from Canberra and six hours from Melbourne, the Sapphire Coast is an easy long weekend destination. What I love about Pambula is its vintage streetscape and authentic shopping, the iconic Pambula Rivermouth and the stunning beaches. Below are my recommendations of things to see and do in Pambula! WHERE TO GET COFFEE Toast  is a unique social dining venue for the locals as well ...

The ultimate weekend in Amsterdam

Image
Museums, quirky hotels and plenty of fun activities… it’s time for the ultimate weekend in Amsterdam . I really enjoyed Amsterdam. It’s one of the shortest flights you can take from London or alternatively you can take the overnight bus to save a few pounds. For me, it’s a city that oozes fun. It’s a wonderland of treasure-packed museums, Golden Age canals, Dutch brick buildings and narrow lanes. I’m sure once you’ve visited you’ll feel like ONE weekend in Amsterdam is simply not enough, but hey, it’s a good start! To truly make the most of your 48 hours in Amsterdam, consider ordering an  I Amsterdam City Card . It’ll give you free or discounted entry to tonnes of museums and attractions in the city. 48 hours in Amsterdam will have you sipping on espresso at a café by the Singel canal, partying until the sun comes up, enjoying a dose of culture at one of the city’s top museums, and  getting lost in the endless boutiques of De Piip . One thing I should mentio...
