If you want to visit a slice of paradise away from city life, this is your place ! Jennifer is a thoughtful and interesting hostess and we thoroughly enjoyed spending a couple of days at her home. She is a mine of information about the local area which helped us decide what we wanted to do. We took up her offer of a home cooked meal and were pleasantly surprised at how much trouble she went to and how delicious it was. The enormous bed was extremely comfortable with luxurious pillows and duvet. Although a bit off the beaten track it is close enough to St Arnaud and all the walks and attractions of that area. However, if you don't feel like exploring, just relaxing on one of the decks admiring the picturesque view is also a lovely way to spend time at Rotoiti Retreat !
