About the host
Hosted by Natasha

My Mum Angela built this home in the late 70s. Growing up in the bush so close to Canberra and Queanbeyan provided an amazing combination of the freedom of running around in the bush, and living with nature and on the land as well as being able to benefit from all Canberra, Queanbeyan and the region has to offer.
As an adult, I realize what a privilege this was for myself and our family.
I hope we can share some of the sense of that experience with our guests.
This is a cherished family property on proud Ngunnawal land.
We welcome you and hope your time at Ridgeway Escape is enjoyable, relaxing, comfortable, providing a home like setting and reprieve away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
