In July we had the privilege of hosting Sarah Andrews wonderful Hosting Masterclass Community at the property for a reunion.
25 friends new and old gathered in our store for a jam packed day with a site tour, wine tasting from local producer Boydell’s and a delicious long lunch with Lucky Duck Restaurant. While we gathered we enjoyed some wonderful tunes from Will Morrison. The perfect end to the day was a preview of our new homewares and gift store 55 Parrots and we all got to take a wonderful goodie bag filled with gifts and discounts.
The Store was buzzing with old tales, hot tips and so much laughter. I wish we could do it all again, and again!
At the end of May Psychologist Rachael Fowler from Your Nurtured Mind, together with Emma Johnson from Tula Yoga and Wellness hosted a beautiful 2 day retreat for 10 lucky woman in our Stunning Villa. Rachael taught these woman how to pause and reconnect with themselves. It was an honour to host such a beautiful event here and we can’t wait for the girls to come back for their next retreat early 2025.
I wanted to share this beautiful testimonial from Rachael – The Villa became the sanctuary beyond what I’d ever dreamed. Ten woman gathered here each day, in pure tranquility surrounded by the lily pond, to reconnect to their highest selves and seek rest and recalibration. I have no doubt the retreat would not have been the same in any other location. The resounding feedback from every attendee is universal: “Amazing. Amazing. Amazing”, and I couldn’t agree more. Thank you for having us!
