"Tantra is not just a collection of techniques to enhance sexual experience. It is a complete science of self-realization, based on the cumulative wisdom of centuries of exploration into the meaning of life and consciousness. Tantra – the very word means 'to weave' – is a set of powerful, transformative tools that can be used to bring new meaning and joy to every aspect of our daily life. You are the lab; the whole experiment is to go on within you. This is not a religion, this is a science. No belief is needed. Only a daringness to experiment is enough; courage to experiment is enough." Osho

 Situated on 77 acres of native bush land, at the southern end of the Watagan ranges and adjacent to state forest. The retreat sits high on a cleared plateau with bush and native wildlife all around. Peace and quiet as well as privacy. Though still only 10 minutes to the shops.
 
We are located on the Central Coast (north of Wyong) and just 10 minutes to the F3 freeway and 50 minutes to either Sydney or Newcastle, making it a very accessible venue for this region. Our entry is via a 3.5 km drive on forest road, which gives us our special seclusion.

Accommodation is a fully self-contained 30 bed lodge with 9 bedrooms containing single bunks and double/queen beds (blankets & pillows provided). Large lounge area, dining area & fully equipped kitchen. Two double bathrooms and change room. (BYO linen).

Many facilities are available to guests including the 11 meter ionized & solar heated swimming pool and BBQ gazebo, the 144 sq./m barn (club, activity or seminar room), private meditation room and many fresh water dams and walking trails.
The "BARN" is a beautiful rustic building (144sq/m) with a sound system, 2 wood heaters and lots of atmosphere. Perfect for workshop groups and gatherings.

There is also a small meditation room, situated in the centre of the lawn, perfect for small group meditations, massage, healing or simply having some quiet time .

A very important point, our retreat is fully self-sufficient on tank water and SOLAR POWER, due to this we request that NO electrical items be brought to the retreat without first checking with us. i.e. no hairdryers, electric kettles, toasters or heaters. We ask you to be aware of how you use all powered items, only leave lights on that you need and be aware that the water is pumped via an electric pump as well. We live and encourage a minimalist lifestyle for all. When necessary a generator comes on automatically to back-up the solar system.

There is always power, we just use it wisely.

Activities are endless depending on the needs of the workshop & individuals. The retreat is clothing optional (by arrangement only) and can usually accommodate most requests. Bush walking, mountain biking, meditation, vision questing, yoga, massage, spiritual healing & solitude are all available by arrangement. There are no structured or set activities everyday, we try to work to the needs of our guests. We tailor our workshops to your individual requirements.
Meals can be BYO or provided by arrangement. All cooking facilities available.

Regular visits from local wildlife of all kinds, the red-neck wallabies are a particular favorite.
