Ballara Art & Lifestyle Retreat offers the perfect getaway for couples or small groups to relax, recharge and awaken inner creative genius!

 

 

A beautiful old stone home built in the early 1900s, Ballara can accommodate up to 6 adults in 3 rooms, with shared bathroom.

The house sits on 4 town blocks surrounded by art-inspired gardens. A large outdoor entertaining area has wonderful views across rural countryside down to the ocean only 5km away. 

Perfect for artistic inspiration and a self-rewarding glass of wine at the end of the day!

​

As a retreat there are many activities and therapies on offer. 

Professional artists and therapists run morning and afternoon sessions of approximately 2 - 3 hours each.

 

Currently, 2 or 3 night packages are available that can be tailored to accommodate you specifically;  as an artist, photographer, writer or yoga/wellbeing retreat. These packages are designed to provide a relaxing and inspiring experience.

 

Packages can be customised with your choice of activities, subject to the availability of tutors and therapists.

​

Workshop packages are all inclusive, ie. accommodation, meals and art/therapy sessions.
