NEW ART RETREATS RELEASED > > >

Welcome!

We offer friendly, thoughtful hospitality and embrace the principles of eco-tourism.

Christine and graham are standing in front of Harridge Falls.

Ours is not an untouched-by-human-hands accommodation business. And although, devoid of fuss and intrusive service, our hands are all over this business! We want your stay to be relaxed, comfortable and unhurried. Please make yourself at home - we are here to help you. So allow the calmness of nature to wash over you, enjoy the night sky, enjoy fresh local foods, picnic on the river, walk the bush trails and make friends with the alpacas.
