Only a three-minute walk from Maitland Road, the studio sits near Mayfield’s lively dining strip, home to a mix of local flavours and coffee spots. Enjoy vegetarian dishes at The Bhakti Tree, authentic Thai at Ruan Kao Thai, or steak sandwiches at The Stack Shack. For coffee, try Zaaki Espresso with its famous baklava cheesecake, or drop by Onyx Espresso Bar and Mayfield Corner Café. Aldi, Coles, and Woolworths are close by for easy grocery runs. The whimsical Fairy Garden is about a nine-minute drive, perfect for a relaxed afternoon wander. Blackbutt Nature Reserve is 14 minutes away, offering native wildlife, playgrounds, and BBQ areas. Around 15 minutes by car leads to Newcastle’s city centre, with its pristine beaches, museum, galleries, shopping, and the scenic Memorial Walk.
