Our retreat has a balinesian style and all furnishings have been hand-made and imported from Bali.

We have the option of a "couple stay" or we offer a stay of up to 8 guests. Rates are listed in the pricing and please see 'Pricing" for small to larger groups.
It is a perfect place to unwind, escape the hussle and bustle of the city, why not treat yourself to some relaxation and enjoy a good nights sleep in the tranquility of the bush setting.
You will have a haven of tranquility to help you escape from your busy daily routine and slow down for a while. Shake off the stress, rejuvenate, recover, recharge your mind, body and spirit, reflect, get back to nature and leave any disharmony of the outside world behind. From the moment you arrive until you leave you will love the experience.
If you wish, you can simply do nothing, have breakfast in bed, enjoy the rural tranquility at the property and watch the abundant bird life, ducks, kanagroos frequenting the property, read a book, watch a movie, laze about on the day beds, decks, hammock, gazebo soak up the sunrays and de-stress, breathe in the fresh air and unwind. Or call a local mobile therapist to come to treat you in house. Or perhaps, watch the country sunrise and sunset.
At night enjoy a glass of wine in front of a warm roaring fire during winter, sit back and gaze at the stars away from the city lights, have a BBQ on the deck overlooking the bushland or cook up a scumptious meal or a candle lit dinner.
