The important bits

Tucked away in the Otway National Park, Hilltop Hideaway offers beautifully renovated luxury accommodation surrounded by five acres of peaceful bushland, just ten minutes from Lorne.

It’s the perfect blend of comfort and calm — a space to unwind, connect, and be completely cared for.

The property features both King rooms and King singles, making it ideal for individuals or friends looking to invest in a restorative weekend away.

The focus for the weekend is to nourish from the inside out. All breakfasts, lunches, and snacks will be lovingly prepared and served by me, with one optional dinner out at Totti’s in Lorne for those who’d like to explore, and another special evening meal created by a private chef at our accommodation.

Mornings will begin with wholesome, seasonal breakfasts — think fresh fruit platters, homemade granola, chia pudding, locally sourced sourdough, and eggs. Lunch will be a colourful spread of salads, dips, and condiments to build your own nourish bowl or sandwich. Snacks will vary from fruit and chocolate-covered dates to protein bites and other little treats throughout the day.

This will be an alcohol-free retreat, though you’re welcome to enjoy a drink when dining out if you wish. All dietary needs and allergies will be catered to with care.

Across the weekend, we’ll flow through four optional classes, all guided by me. We’ll begin with a gentle, grounding yoga session on the first evening, followed by a morning Pilates class on day two. That evening, we’ll unwind with yoga and meditation, and on the final morning, we’ll close the retreat with a refreshing Pilates session out on the lawn.

Each class is designed to help you rejuvenate and restore after the busy season, think soft movement, deep breaths, and plenty of space to simply be. If you’d prefer to sleep in or take it slow, you’re more than welcome to.

This weekend is about rest, balance, and finding your own flow.
