Retreats in the Hinterland
“a luxury experience, in the heart of nature”
welcome to retreats in the Hinterland
Set on 87 acres amongst native flower fields, bushland and open sky, The Barn offers a retreat experience unlike anything else this close to Newcastle. As a working flower and foliage farm, the property is alive with colour, texture and seasonal beauty — creating an inspiring backdrop for meaningful rest, reflection and reconnection.
Our boutique venue accommodates up to 90 day day guests and 26 overnight guests. The property has been purpose‑designed to accommodate wellness retreats, creative workshops and immersive group experiences. Every space invites you to slow down, breathe deeply and reconnect with nature.
Conveniently located less than two hours from Sydney and just 30 minutes from Newcastle and Port Stephens, the farm offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. With access throughout the property, facilitators and guests can explore, gather and create in the spaces that best support their intention — from quiet pockets of bushland to open fields and sunlit farm vistas.
