This Christmas there is a new option to consider when looking for the coveted family portrait.

Skip the concrete meccas this year and head out to Dashville at Lower Belford, where there’s ample parking, clean fresh air, a few twilight market stalls, food and beverages and some tasty live music...and our best version of an Aussie Santa to shake hands and get a photo with (if you want to)

Not only that, entry is free and you can roll the picnic rug out and turn it into a glorious afternoon out with friends and family.. Why even the pooches are welcome!

Things kick off at 2pm and will run until the later evening. You're also welcome to grab a camping pass for the night.

You can peruse the family portrait packages available here. Select one now or on the day. We just ask that you register for a time slot with our famous photographer Kate, otherwise you might have to wait too long and end up enjoying yourself at the bar too much.

**SEE BELOW FOR MORE INFO ON THE PORTRAIT PACKAGES**

Swoop Inn open for coffee and picnic style food and dinner, you’re welcome to bring your own picnic though! Pre-order below or purchase on the day. We can accommodate any dietary requirements, just let us know on the day or via dashvilleoffice@gmail.com

The Bird Bath open for cold bevs, no BYO alcohol.

We hope you can join us for a Merry Christmas Dashville style!

Love,

The Dashville Crew x
