Travelling north on the Pacific Highway, you will turn left into Watts Lane and follow the signs along the scenic drive towards Ashby. This peaceful village is a great place to go for a scenic drive. Perhaps pack a picnic and enjoy it on the riverbank looking over towards the mighty hills of Maclean. The local residents of Ashby hold a market on the third Sunday of the month, which is a great day out for the family to enjoy the local produce and have a nice barbeque breakfast or lunch.

Ashby is a growing town, with new subdivisions and city people looking for their own quiet piece of the Clarence.
