Is a payment plan available?

Yes. Must be paid in full by 30 September.

What if I have mobility issues?

All of the events and bathrooms are located on the ground floor. There is limited accommodation on the ground floor, so priority will be given to those with mobility issues.

What if I have dietary issues?

If you have dietary issues, please book as soon as possible. We will do our best to accommodate you - and ask that you keep in mind that we are not professional caterers.

What is your cancellation policy?

We understand that plans can change. Our cancellation policy is designed to be as flexible as possible. If you need to cancel, please let us know ASAP. If you have to cancel after 30 September, there will be a A$30 cancellation fee due to having already bought food and craft supplies for the event.

What if I only want to come for the day?

We'd love to have you come for the day! You will be asked to pay A$15 per meal that you plan to have at the retreat. For example, if you come on Saturday and have afternoon tea and supper with us, it would be A$30.

meet your host

Tania Bitmead

Hello everyone. 🙋ðŸŧ‍♀ïļ I am one of your hosts for the retreat.

As many of you know I am Kira's Mum and we share a love of reading, although our tastes are a bit different. We do at times recommend books to each other. My tastes in books has expanded a lot since Kira started the group.

I also love craft , although I think I am more well known for starting projects and not finishing them
ðŸĪŠ! I really want to learn how to Crochet.

I also enjoy gardening, camping,fishing and going on 4wd adventures with my partner.
