Woodley Park

You’ll find a pleasant blend of suburban peacefulness and urban liveliness in the Woodley Park neighbourhood. 

Located just north of bustling Dupont Circle, Woodley Park is bordered by the National Zoo—where you’ve got to see the pandas—and Rock Creek Park. The neighbourhood has heaps of outdoor space for the sprogs to burn off energy or for you to jog, bike or power walk. Woodley Park is known for being safe and family friendly, with great pubs and restaurants lining Connecticut Avenue.
