THE VENUE
With luxury farmhouse and the quaint Dairy accommodation, a yoga barn overlooking open fields, and fresh country air, Willow Farm is your perfect retreat escape.
This peaceful 160-acre sanctuary is just outside the village of Berry — a place where wide open skies, green rolling hills, and the rhythm of nature invite you to slow down and exhale.
Once a working dairy from the early pioneering days until the 1990s, it’s now home to grass-fed cattle, veggie gardens, and a beautifully restored homestead. The owners have transformed the property into a haven for rest, connection, and celebration.
The beautifully restored farmhouse offers warmth, space, and simplicity — think crackling fireplaces, soft light, and quiet nooks to retreat to between sessions. With four spacious bedrooms and serene views from every room, it’s a space that holds you in comfort. Just a few steps from the main house, the Dairy offers a fifth private room with its own ensuite — a tucked-away haven ideal for deeper rest and reflection.
Whether you’re practicing in the spacious yoga barn, watching the sun rise through morning mist, or connecting with others around the firepit as the paddocks glow gold, Willow Farm invites a deep exhale — a chance to reconnect with yourself in a truly nourishing setting.
"Sometimes, you just need to retreat.
Not to escape, but to find your centre."

MEET YOUR TEAM

Paola
Your host
Hosting retreats brings Paola immense joy because it allows her to create a sanctuary for you—a space where every detail is taken care of so you can truly let go. These weekends are designed for you to focus solely on yourself, free from the demands of daily life.
What makes these retreats unique is the exploration of mat Pilates, a well-established practice that fosters connection between body and mind through movement. Adding a distinctive dimension is FAMO Fascia Movement—a method designed to enhance everyday life. The key difference is the focus on fascia. At a fundamental level this changes why you do the exercises, how you execute them, what you pay attention to, and what you gain. In short, it changes everything. It supports vitality and inner ease, helping your movements become more fluid and springy, and your body more adaptable and resilient. Clarity deepens, presence expands, and emotional balance emerges. In short: it simply feels good to live in your body.
Through a harmonious blend of movement, rest, uplifting company, scenic walks, refreshing swims, and nourishing meals, you gift your body and mind the chance to reset. The benefits are profound: a calmer nervous system, improved digestion, enhanced tissue hydration, and more. It's a transformative experience that nurtures your whole being.
Angie
Your Chef
A true south-coast treasure, Angie’s culinary brilliance is matched only by her commitment to a sustainable, ethical and locally sourced menu. Think rich cardamon-scented Massaman curry, smoked burrata pasta, salads that crunch with freshness and taste, Buddha bowls bright with colour and flavour, homemade chocolate truffles… have I got your attention yet?
A trained chef, cooking teacher, and expert fermenter, Angie is passionate about sharing her knowledge of food and nutrition. Her passion lies in using food to help transform lives. Wholesome, nutritious, nourishing and all sourced from the local area, Angie’s food deserves a retreat of its own. Hm. Maybe I’ll work on that!

A LIGHT FILLED SPACE TO RECONNECT
Your spacious Pilates and FAMO movement space– transformed from an old tractor shed – is a unique place for your movement practice. With its bamboo floors, white walls and deck overlooking the paddocks, it is a beautiful, serene space filled with light and calming energy. Delight in the sight of cows and sheep grazing while you are on your mat moving through your movement retreat.
