Bathed in abundant natural light and nestled within a one-acre rockery and native garden, this exquisite open-plan space is thoughtfully designed and lovingly curated to blend style, comfort, and functionality seamlessly.
Located next to the main house on a sprawling three-acre property of native bushland and meticulously maintained gardens, the studio's exclusive backyard/patio area is carefully separated by a combination of fencing and natural rockery. The fencing is strategically placed to ensure maximum privacy, acting as both a visual and physical barrier, while the rockery blends seamlessly into the landscape, enhancing the secluded feel of the space. Completely self-contained, it features a fully equipped kitchenette and the option of an additional bedroom, separated by a foldable privacy screen/blind for flexibility.
More than just accommodation, our aim is to curate a slow-stay experience that nurtures mindfulness, connection, and an appreciation for the present moment. We extend an invitation for you to break away from the fast-paced routines and fully immerse yourself in the essence of this temporary abode. As such, there is no television in the studio, but we have views out every window/door and everywhere you go, plus a plethora of slow-stay essentials:
• Spa with fire pit under the old oak tree
• Canadian red cedar sauna with outdoor shower
• Premium natural SPA toiletries
• Scented candles
• Books

• Portable Marshall bluetooth speaker

Other things to note
There is a fat cat called Pinot with tons of personality on the premise, sometimes a bit grumpy so pet him at discretion.
The stuido feels very much in "the country" located within the natural habitat of a number of wildlife, so it's very common to see wallabies, pademelons, and the occassional echidna's grazing in the landscape around the studio.
We’re also very lucky to be surrounded by an abundance of birdlife here, and you may spot wedge-tailed eagles, kookaburras and black cockatoos. It’s one of the lovely little things about here — you never quite know what wildlife you might see!
