In today’s society, retreats are more

important than ever for inner rejuvenation and

healing. Attending a retreat helps us re-connect with ourselves and nature,

nourishing the body and mind and in turn,

giving a higher sense of clarity and direction in life.

HOST A RETREAT AT LAKE HAWEA VIEWWe are a community minded property and love to share the exceptional and grounding space Lake Hawea View has to offer with as many human-beings as possible.

Lake Hawea View provides the perfect venue to host your next retreat. We offer full support, not only logistically but we also work with retreat hosts to formulate payment options and plans that work in a way to minimise risk because we understand that sometimes, hosts require a minimum number of people to attend their retreat in order for it to become feasible from a monetary standpoint. We offer flexibility to assist with the launch and scalability of the event all whilst providing a retreat package that is fully customised and aligned with event objectives.

We assist in marketing your event by listing it on our website with a direct link to you.

Contact us to discuss your retreat-hosting options.

THE SPACELake Hawea View is rich in bird song and surrounded by thick stretches of native flora. The surrounding lawn makes for the perfect yoga and meditation ground with infinity views that drop out onto Lake Hawea and beyond to the great Southern Alps mountain vistas. The property is eco-conscious and strives to reduce waste and maximise sustainability.

The building is set like no other; truly unique and authentically hand crafted. Every detail of the property is interlaced with heart and soul. Use of natural and recycled materials such as limestone and old railway beams gift a wholesome, earthy and grounding vitality.

The main dining hall is large enough to accommodate an indoor yoga or meditation class of up to 20 people.

The main kitchen is large enough to allow for communal cooking not to mention the adjoining guest house kitchen.

IN-HOUSE ACCOMODATIONThe property sleeps up to 12 people. To expand on this there are options of setting up glamping tents on the surrounding lawns and/or trundler beds. There are other accommodation facilities very close by should they be needed.

Walking, hiking and mountain bike tracks are basically on the doorstep along with other air and water experiences.

The combined environment, surrounds, spaces and facilities offer the perfect place of retreat to create inner stillness and gain new skills through learning and sharing.
