Discover the Ultimate Escape.

Imagine a sanctuary where ocean and hinterland views stretch beyond the horizon, inviting you to slow time and reconnect with what matters most. Our retreat offers a blend of tranquility, art, and natural beauty. It is a place for couples to deepen their bond or for families and friends to gather and create meaningful memories.

THE SPACE
Step into an open-plan home filled with warmth and character. Australian artworks bring inspiration and presence into the space. The generous bedroom and bathroom invite rest, intimacy and quiet mornings.
In the living room, a comfortable daybed provides additional sleeping space for peaceful nights. An open fireplace in the lounge and a fire pit outside invite you to sit together, watch the light fade over the hills and simply be. A complimentary starter pack of wood is provided to welcome you into your stay.
For rejuvenation and movement, a gym and yoga or meditation space is available. It includes basic weights, rings and yoga mats for grounding or energising practices surrounded by nature.
Please note: There are two separate dwellings on the property. They are close to each other as the property was originally an artist’s residence and working studio, though your space is private and exclusively yours during your stay.
Due to the steep drops in the garden areas, our sanctuary is not suitable for young children.
