Testimonials from guests:

"Embrace the millions of stars, the stillness and the purity. Sit in silence, touch the earth and listen to the sound of the river - search within for who you truly are. Enjoy the warm and homely accommodation and nurturing vegetarian food."

"My body, mind and soul have been nourished, bathed and cleansed in the perfection of this paradise. The accommodation - very comfortable; the food - wholesome and delicious; the hosts - welcoming and very loving; and the forest and river - very healing. A very special, spiritual, experience. My love to all who follow that it may be this and more to you."

"I feel deeply nourished and rejuvenated. Enjoy Sarah's wisdom and tour guide skills. Harry's boundless energy. Mary-Louise's inspirational devotion. Mark's extraordinary creativity. The list could go on - I felt so at home here and Mother Earth speaks to you everywhere you turn. So have your intention and your questions ready and you'll find your answers in this very sacred part of the world. Blessings and love to everyone who comes here."

"It's been so healing to experience the oneness with nature - wonderful for my soul, not to mention the feeling of being utterly nurtured by this environment that Mary-Louise, Mark and their family provide through the love they give. I've felt totally nurtured. And they even provided a shooting star for me in the middle of the night."

"The sanctuary you have created here is very special. The soul lets out a big 'sigh' and feels that it has come home. The mind slows and occasionally stops at the wonderment of beauty - nature expands to fill the space. Silence speaks its words of wisdom to the heart and through that, all is nurtured and nourished. Thank you for the wisdom, strength and courage to make your dreams a reality."

"As the fox shared with his Little Prince: 'You can only see things clearly with your heart. What is essential is invisible to the eye. It is the time you have wasted on your rose that makes your rose so important.' This is why I came here: to see with my heart and to 'waste' time. In an otherwise frenetic life this weekend stands out amongst all the other moments because of this precious 'wasting' of time.... that is what has made my weekend so important. I am so rich: I have Harry's lucky leaf, Sarah's portrait, Mark's music in my head and Mary-Louise's serenity and guidance surrounding me."

"A special treat for all of the senses and a perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of life with people who are committed to that life. Genuine warmth and empathy."

"This weekend has given me more than I ever expected. Dru yoga is so serene and beautiful. Vegetarian cooking is much better than I ever thought! The first thing I felt when I arrived was the stillness and this is what I am taking back to our crazy Sydney life. Thank you for the balance you have given me and for this exceptional weekend."

"It was magic all around. Arrived at the time when I needed a little break from a busy city life. Thank you Mark, Mary-Louise, Sarah and my little special friend, Harry..... for letting me taste your beautiful paradise. I know for sure this is one of the journeys and experiences that will stay in my life forever."

"Found myself in the river. Wanted to dance.... and I did. Thank you. Thank you for your warm gift. For sharing your home. Your family. Your heart. I will come again. The river will call me. That I am sure."

"What a wonderful place to rediscover your womanhood! Thank you for sharing your haven, it will always be in my heart, along with your warm, welcoming smile."

"I love every ounce of your property. The river is my favourite. Your place is so inspirational and I wish I lived here. Your accommodation is fabulous! Thanks for having me and I hope to come again. I had the best weekend.... ever!"
