About the event

Rolling Hills Retreat provides the perfect space for relaxing, rejuvenating and unwinding. You can get involved with as much or as little of the proposed programs as you like - no judgement here if you want to have a lie-in or use as a base to go and explore the surroundings.

Perfect for people who have never been to a wellness retreat before as well as experienced retreaters.

We are a humble home-stay style of retreat, not a luxury resort - we aim to provide comfort, relaxation and a well-planned itinerary based on psychology, research-based evidence and a dash of spirituality at an affordable price. Chris, the main host & owner, is trained, experienced & accredited in psychology/psychotherapy/mental health/group therapy/yoga/meditation/education and food safety. We have been running retreats from our space since the end of 2020.

Opportunities for self-development, personal growth, gaining insight and letting go can also occur for those who are looking for that. Themed workshops will be offered throughout the retreat as well as free time to relax or explore the area.

We are a small personalised retreat - 13 guests absolute maximum but usually approximately 5-8 as most people opt for sole occupancy of rooms.

Various room types available - see https://www.rollinghillsretreat.com.au/pricing for prices for our room types. We highly recommend the sole occupancy of rooms for those who are light sleepers or want some privacy and personal downtime.

Twice daily yoga (hatha, vinyasa flow, gentle and yin/restorative).

Meditations and wellness workshops offered throughout the day as well as walks, creative sessions, fire pit ceremonies, etc. (schedule varies for each retreat and is tailored to the group via a pre-retreat questionnaire for a bespoke experience - see below for an example of the schedule).

Healthy and tasty vegetarian/gluten-free/dairy-free home-cooked food provided for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Pre-booked massages from other trained professionals available ($130ph).

Approximately $40 Uber or $60 taxi from Ballina Airport.

Sauna is available at various points over the retreat as it is wood-fired. Our hot-tub no longer is in operation unfortunately.
