Retreats

Retreats on the escarpment.

Wellness, yoga and private group retreats on 1,100 private acres, two hours from Sydney.

The Pavilion floor laid out in rows of mats and hand weights for a morning retreat session, the escarpment through the glass beyond

Exclusive use

The whole property, to one group.

We take a small number of retreats each year, and each one has the property to itself: the Pavilion for sessions, the Homestead to sleep in, the cliffs to walk, and nobody else on any of it.

Wellness and yoga retreats sit alongside private and corporate gatherings. Whichever yours is, the place is yours for the length of it.

Kore Connect, with Kath Evans.

Four days of Pilates, breathwork and recovery over the Shoalhaven gorge: ten guests, the whole property to themselves, and a different setting for almost every session.

Mornings on the escarpment at first light, the Pavilion floor for the long sessions, the Homestead pool deck when the weather held, and sauna and ice bath between them. Every meal was cooked on site and eaten at one long table.

Self Festival, with Dominique Elissa.

In June 2025 we hosted Self Festival, an immersive day of movement, breath and connection led by Dominique Elissa, in partnership with FixBIOME.

A full day of wellness high above the Shoalhaven gorge: a glimpse of what's possible when the whole property becomes a retreat.
