This accomodation is fantastic for large groups, especially craft/sewing groups. The rooms all have single beds and ensuites and there is one large space complete with tables and desk chairs plus access to a cutting mat, irons and ironing boards. There’s a lounge and tv set up and a great kitchen with all the amenities. The building is stunning rammed earth which helps keep the space cool. Our group loved the large outdoor seating area with the vines hanging down and arranged to have catering from someone local to the area. This property is situated behind a cider house and the orchard in between that and the accommodation encourages kangaroos and emus. Our quilt guild loves coming here. The owner of the property is a fantastic host thanks for the great retreats 🥰

What it’s like
Yoga studios, art teachers and craft groups book the whole house for weekend retreats — myoga's Iyengar weekends and Art Outdoors' painting retreats among them — and self-cater or bring in local caterers.
Quiet, moderately active, small and private.

How these ratings work
These bars are a guide, not a score of this business. Each starts from Oria Haven’s profile of Guided nature & hiking as a kind of session, then is adjusted by facts stored on this listing: its price band, its group size and whether it welcomes beginners.
Nobody has rated this particular venue in person, and reviews are not fed in. Where we have no fact about this listing behind a bar — for example how many people share the room — we leave that bar out rather than guess.
They describe the room — how quiet, how physical, how many people — never what a session is supposed to do for you.
Why our editors picked it
“A rammed-earth house purpose-built in 2012 for groups of up to eighteen: eight ensuite bedrooms, a large common room and kitchen, and the Bibbulmun Track at the boundary under a kilometre from Dwellingup. Yoga studios and art teachers hire the whole place for weekends and either self-cater or bring in local caterers, so the shape of the retreat is yours.”

Fantastic This weekend was our 12th visit! Been going annually since it was built, thank you nick! Lyn robins (carol smith group)
UNBELIEVABLE. A wonderful venue. I have never been on a retreat before and one can't help feeling, I am now spoilt for other venues down the track. Hygiene was impeccable Facilities themselves were brand new and more than adequate which included a lovely room, fresh linen. The sewing/function room with attatched, and up to date advanced kitchen, wood fire and woodbox fully stocked. Amazing lighting and multiple power points. Beautiful scenery with nearby wildlife. Plus all the little extras one needs for a sewing weekend. Nice walk to town with bush walks near by. I was invited by a friend when a vacancy came up, I don't know the owners, but they have certainly done an outstanding job. A very unique place. Thankyou very much to all involved. Maryanne Robinson

IllustrationA guided journal with short daily prompts: a few lines in the morning, a few at night. Undated, so a missed day costs nothing.
Makes a giftGoes well with Mindfulness coaching
Why we picked it
A journal only works if it is short enough to keep doing. This one asks for five minutes and three lines, which is the amount most people will actually write, and undated pages mean no guilt about the gaps. A good gift because nobody buys it for themselves.

Good for beginnersGoes well with Breathwork
Why we picked it
If a breathwork class has left you curious about why any of it works, this is the book to read next. It is a reporter's book rather than a manual, which is why it is so readable, and it sends most people back to class with better questions.
