Come as you are,
leave gently changed
Rooted in place and embraced by the landscape, Leaves and Fishes is an ever-evolving stay, wedding, event and retreat space - unpolished, soulful, and deeply personal. Come to rest, reconnect, or realign, with thoughtful comforts and unexpected details
along the way.
Leaves & Fishes is a boutique country escape in Lovedale, Hunter Valley - shaped by nature, steeped in nostalgia,
and touched by quiet magic.
Stay
Book The Villa, a private Boathouse (we have four), or the full property. Perfect for unwinding, reconnecting, or celebrating something special.
Explore
Step into The Trove - a curated mix of homewares, greenery, and locally made treasures for inspired living.
Celebrate
From just the two of you to something grander, plan a wedding that feels true to you. Our property offers a collection of distinctive locations to say I do and celebrate your way.
Gather
From workplace strategy days, retreats and brand shoots, our flexible spaces offer a refreshing setting for events built around connection, creativity, and
purposeful gatherings.
Enjoy
We also host public events and workshops - from seasonal gatherings
to creative sessions.
Play
Tucked away in a secret garden, the Nature and Nurture team have joined us to introduce a wonderful opportunity for play.
