Retreats Designed for Rest, Romance and Views
Features and details of Kangaroo Ridge Retreat that shape your time on the ridge
Mountains & Seclusion
Set high on the ridge, the retreats offer a striking sense of elevation and seclusion. Here, mornings begin eye to eye with the mountains, sometimes above the clouds, with only the sounds of trees, wildlife and the valley far below. It is a perspective that feels private, peaceful and wonderfully apart from the everyday.
A bath with views
From the warmth of the spa bath to panoramic mountain views beyond, this is self-care with a sense of place. Thoughtfully chosen scrubs, lotions and soaks, along with plush robes and cosy PJs, invite you to unwind in comfort high above the valley.
Wildlife
There is no need to go searching for nature here. The beauty is in slowing down and letting the wildlife reveal itself in its own time. Kangaroos at first light, birdsong, and, if you are lucky, a wedge-tail eagle soaring overhead. It is a gentle kind of exposure to the elements; grounding, restorative, and just a little wild by nature.
Adults only
Each of our cosy retreats has room for two adults aged 18 years and over.
Little ones (whether on two legs or four), must find their own adventures elsewhere.
A Wine Bar & Larder
Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or simply enjoy a drink, with or without alcohol, the retreat’s wine bar and included larder make staying in feel beautifully easy. Together, they offer a self-sufficient little world of local flavours, with something to suit every palate.
Fireplace for Winter
Fully embrace winter with a crackling fire. Each retreat comes equipped with a woodfire and plenty of firewood for you to use outside of the summer fire season.

Complete Your Stay
More than a hidden spot for mountain views and local wine, time on the ridge invites you to slow down and enjoy what matters most. Long baths, slow mornings, fires lit before dusk, and the quiet pleasure of having nowhere else to be.
From the thoughtful comforts already waiting in your retreat to the extras that add another layer of ease, indulgence or discovery, this is where you can shape the stay around you.
