Longwood Retreat

Hidden away in the beautiful natural bush of the Adelaide Hills, Longwood Retreat has everything you need to unwind, relax and recharge.

You will find simple and clean dormitories that over-look a valley of native plants, trees, vineyards and wildlife. In the mornings Kookaburras and Magpies will sing as you wake with the first rays of sun seeping through the leaves and branches. The clean, fresh air and peaceful setting is medicine for the soul from the busy world.

We provide basic amenities including fresh towels, bathroom supplies and cooking essentials (oil, condiments etc) to make your experience as comfortable as possible. A huge communal kitchen is available with a large recreation room along with a shared pantry where you can store fresh produce from either our productive / edible gardens (which we are currently working on expanding) or local markets.

Down by the BBQ area you will find comfortable hammocks which take the shade from 1pm onwards. A perfect spot to read your book, meditate, eat lunch and take in all that the Adelaide Hills has to offer. Maps and local tips on cafes and restaurants are also happily provided in the communal living area.

If you prefer to be a little more active there are bush walks in the area or just stroll 2 kms down the hill to the Harvest Café and burn off your coffee and cake on the way back up. The peace and quiet will relax the soul leaving you feeling happier than when you arrived.
