Deep Earth Sanctuary: Writers' Retreat

At only a little over an hour's journey from Melbourne, Deep Earth Sanctuary is the perfect destination for those who need a break from life’s hustle and bustle. The Writer's Retreat is an incongruous combination of simplicity, beauty and comfort while the natural beauty of the garden offers inspiration, reflection and enjoyment. A vast array of books at your disposal to read either in your four poster bed, by the warm fireplace, or in any one of the cosy sitting spaces inside and out. The space The Writer's Room has been created using reclaimed and natural materials. A space intended for comfort, relaxation and de-stressing; a wholesome, rustic and cosy atmosphere. • Fully self-contained and stocked with all necessary kitchen utensils and equipment. • Breakfast provisions of locally produced, principally organic foods and teas supplied. • A queen-sized four-poster bed with memory foam pillows, bamboo/cotton linen and woollen doona. Guest access 20 minutes' drive from Daylesford/Hepburn Springs and Ballarat; close to Woodend, Kyneton and the rest of the Central Highlands, a short drive in any direction offers as many gourmet and specialty indulgences as you can bear. Other things to note The meditator can walk the labyrinth to help to focus and detach from the ‘busyness’ of life. An eclectic library gives you a reason to sit by the Ned Kelly wood fire in the cooler months, or on the reading bench, philosophising in the sun.
