The Retreat
Set against the winter landscape of Kingsford The Barossa — one of South Australia's most celebrated luxury properties — this intimate retreat is an invitation to stop running and return to what matters.
Co-hosted with Kingsford the Barossa, the weekend weaves together gentle movement, walks along the North Para River, reflective practice and exceptional dining. It is warm, unhurried and deeply considered.
Evenings unfold around the fire pit. Dinner on Saturday is in the wine tunnel. Sunday morning arrives slowly, and guests don't quite want to leave.
