The Rise Wellbeing Retreat

The Rise Wellbeing Retreat

8/10 Good
"Beautiful home and location for a holiday. We really enjoyed using the house as a base for exploring Gloucester & surrounds. The spa and sauna are woodfired and a bit tricky to get going. Wood was provided but it was really not suitable. It would be best if you brought your own like the bags of smaller pieces you get from bunnings would be ideal. Also good to know there is only 1 small fridge so eskies & ice may be needed for drinks and backup to keep things cold."
