Testimonials
Male, Sydney
The entire weekend exceeded my expectations. I went into the retreat a damaged soul with little to no positive perspective on life. There was the perfect mix of activities which included, self healing, self care, free time and group activities which allowed me to connect with others.
​
Rolling Hills Retreat is a slice of heaven, situated in a beautiful location surrounded by mountains and neighbouring farms. It offers spacious and scenic views of mother nature creating a sense of calmness and serenity. The food was incredible and the hosts, Chris and Cam, were unbelievable.
The yoga and mediation programs were beyond incredible. The programs have equipped me with the necessary strategies to deal with negative thoughts and bad decision making. I have found myself repeating my own mantra's and affirmations on a daily basis since returning from the retreat. I meditate every night and have recommenced my yoga practices.
Sine the retreat, I have implemented more joy and self care routines in my everyday life. I feel refocussed and full of purpose. Chris and Cam, thank you for the opportunity and for allowing me to find myself again. I am eternally grateful.

What can I say except wow! The 2 night yoga and wellness retreat at Rolling Hills Retreat was phenomenal from start to finish. Chris and Cameron were excellent hosts, providing the small comforts that help make you feel like you're at home and in a safe, welcoming space. The food was freshly prepared, vegan and so tasty - for someone who only eats vegetarian perhaps 2-3 times per week, I will now be moving more towards vegan recipes in the future thanks to their amazing and easy to follow examples.
The yoga part of this retreat was great for a beginner like myself who has only done a few YouTube videos and a gym class here and there. We were shown different types of yoga and were expertly guided into the correct form by instructor Chris. Going back to the body balance class at the gym the following day, I felt clear and confident in my movements and in the new techniques I had learnt over the weekend.
The self care/help workshops were more than I expected but what a great space to let go of some darkness and get help seeing the light, with techniques to take home and continue the good vibrations. The meditation workshops were equally as useful and I felt myself fall into a meditative state for the first time with Chris's soothing voice and expert guidance.
With plenty of free time, activities to do as a group and solo, and planned workshops and exercise, I highly recommend this retreat for anyone looking to recharge their batteries, kickstart their mental and physical health journey or just get away from the hustle and bustle of every day life with these beautiful souls and in such beautiful surroundings. I am already counting down the days until I can visit this beautiful place again for another wonderful retreat!

I felt privileged to be able to attend the Rolling Hills Retreat. The retreat was authentic and carefully curated to nourish and nurture your body and soul. As I drove up the driveway I started smiling to myself and there was Chris smiling back at me. He welcomed me to the retreat which immediately made me feel at home. Throughout the whole weekend I felt comfortable as if I was just visiting friends which enabled me to open up completely and honestly to myself and others around me. Not only did the weekend nourish my body with beautiful food and yoga but also my mind. I can’t wait to return. I truly hope others are able to experience what I have at Rolling Hill Retreat. Sometimes you just need a break in a beautiful place to breathe and be present to enable to listen to your body and mind to be nourished and reset. Thank you to Chris and the RHR tribe xxx
