A residential area that spreads out from here, near South Beach, across the old quarry and up the hill to the church and further afield. The Fremantle Farmer's Market is a walk through the back of Beaconsfield, short cut down the walking trail next to Fremantle College.

Don't miss this quirky bar where you toss your peanut shells on the floor, check out all the ocean paraphernalia and they serve guinness on tap. There were rumours an old copper bath in the ladies toilet was once owned by Marilyn Monroe but it’s gone now and we will never know. A gem.

Cách đi lại

Public transport is quick and easy

Every bus on Hampton Road heading north will take you to Fremantle. Coming home, go to the Train station or the stop outside Freo Markets and ask the bus drivers if they go along Hampton Road as far as Clontarf. Uber or Didi are good options. The train to Perth is really easy and parking in Perth is tricky.

Sunday Farmer's Market at Fremantle College.

A lovely community market within walking distance through the back streets of Beaconsfield. Great food, live music and very Freo.
