Join us for a nourishing weekend of flavour, relaxation, and reconnection set in the stunning hinterland of the Central Coast. Held at the luxurious Noonaweena Eco Estate, this all-inclusive retreat invites guests to slow down and savour life through hands-on cooking classes, abundant feasts, and restorative wellness experiences including gentle yoga, sauna sessions, live music by the fire and time in nature.

The retreat is all about reconnecting, with food, with self, and with others; we’ll be cooking together, sharing stories over nourishing meals, and making space for rest and joy. Noonaweena is the perfect backdrop for the retreat, beautiful, peaceful, and full of heart. Nestled in the mountains of Kulnura, Noonaweena is a luxury eco retreat blending natural beauty with comfort and care. The estate is known for its holistic approach to wellness, sustainability, and community. The accomodation includes gorgeous rooms overlooking the bush or pool.

For the food lovers, this retreat is a deep dive into the heart of cooking, not just recipes, but intuition, technique, and flavour. You'll learn the foundations of cheffing, master the art of sauces and stocks, explore global favourites like Japanese and Mexican cuisine, and get hands-on with sourdough and smart meal prep strategies. We'll play with flavour pairings, experiment with textures, and share the kind of slow, satisfying meals that nourish more than just the body. Whether you're an experienced home cook or just passionate about good food, this weekend will leave you inspired, confident, and connected to your kitchen in a whole new way.
