Small group retreat venue in the northern Blue Mountains

Set on acreage in a tranquil, off-the-road valley in Bilpin, there is a small group retreat venue comprised of the Yoga from the Inside studio and The Artist’s Retreat Cottage, which has cosy, comfortable twin share accommodation for five. The fully equipped yoga studio has capacity for eight students on yoga mats and up to 12 seated. It can be used for yoga or other group work sessions. The studio also has a single bed (suitable for facilitator accommodation) a kitchenette and a bathroom.

The tiny town of Bilpin is just an hour and a half’s drive from Sydney on the scenic Bells Line of Road, which traverses the ridge above two bushland valleys. Nestled at the cusp of the Hawkesbury and the Blue Mountains, it is convenient to the stunning Botanic Gardens in Mount Tomah or for exploring the gardens in Mount Wilson.
