Welcome

Rocky Hills Retreat was designed to be unique in its own right and at the same time compliment Avalon's values, design and experience.

Our wonderful and creative partnership with award winning Architect Craig Rosevear, guided the design to its simple and elegant presence. Its simplicity was all about the question 'What do we really need?' The result is a well designed intimate and completely private space for one or two people to explore 'themselves'. The space is created for;

  • Creativity
  • Walking
  • Expressions of joy
  • Returning to the simple
  • Love
  • Relaxation or Exploration
  • Contemplation or interaction
  • Hibernation or conversation
  • Solitude or intimacy
  • Being comfortable with yourself while no one is watching
  • Exploring yourself and each other
  • Immersing yourself in questions, 'what do I really want?'
  • Experiencing beauty
  • Understanding your own authenticity
  • Stories
  • Tears - if they are still there
  • Spiritual journeys
  • Exploring wisdom
  • Experiencing the present
  • Exploring the future
  • Not thinking, just being in the moment
  • Creating or co creating dreams
  • Thinking about what is real, away from the circus

How are four walls (well in this case windows) going to deliver this? It will naturally be about the whole experience, the built form, the setting, the art studio, the place, the view, the service, the vegetable soup on the fire, the library of edgy books - it will mostly be about the quiet, people giving themselves time to be quiet.
