RETREAT ITINERARY AND WHAT TO EXPECT
This boutique yoga retreat in Victoria is very much your getaway, just like any holiday would be. Of course we love it if our guests join all activities and yoga classes, but we fully understand it if people want to take some time just for them.
You have the option to extend your stay by adding on Thursday night, making this a 2 or 3 night retreat.

OUR YARRA VALLEY RETREAT VENUE
Cheeky Fox Retreat sits on 50 private acres with spectacular views over the Ranges. There are 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a yoga and meditation space, private cinema, a cosy wood burner, lush grounds, and plenty of private bush tracks for you to explore.
We’ve been lucky enough to retreat here many times and we LOVE IT so much that we keep coming back.
TRAVELING SOLO?
We love solo travellers!
Most retreats have a 50/50 mix of solo guests and friends who travel together. If you are joining alone we will pair you up with another female solo guest to share a twin room. We will also introduce you to each other prior to the retreat so you can get to know each other a little better beforehand. From the moment you walk in we’ll make you feel at home. We’ll promise friendly faces and easygoing conversations.
Also, we don’t do ‘opening circles’ and we prefer it if our guests get to know each other organically – over a cuppa or glass of bubbles.
