Nestled amidst the breathtaking natural beauty of regional Victoria lies "The Oxford," an extraordinary property that promises a truly unique and unforgettable escape. From its picturesque private garden to its eclectic interior design, The Oxford offers an experience unlike any other, a distinctive retreat in regional Victoria.

The journey begins as you enter the property's fully matured private garden, thoughtfully designed to showcase the native splendour of regional Victoria. Here, you can immerse themselves in the tranquility of nature, surrounded by native plant species that enhance the overall charm of this retreat.

Step inside, and you'll be immediately struck by the distinctive decorations and artistic touches that define the interior of The Oxford. This is not just accommodation; it's an immersive artistic experience that sets it apart from the ordinary.

The property boasts a spacious lounge and a dining room. These inviting spaces are perfect for gatherings, whether it's enjoying a sumptuous meal or cozying up by the wood-burning fireplace.

The country kitchen is a culinary haven, with plenty of space for our workshops. It also offers a captivating view of the property's deck area, where lush gardens create an idyllic setting for alfresco dining.

The Oxford features its very own yoga studio, a space designed for rejuvenation.

Even the bathrooms within The Oxford are a part of its eccentric design aesthetic. Brightly coloured cabinets contrast beautifully with clean white tiles.

Situated conveniently near the Hepburn Mineral Springs Reserve and the renowned Hepburn Bathhouse & Spa, The Oxford allows proximity to those extra treats on retreat if you so wish.

Whether you seek tranquility in nature, artistic inspiration, or a gathering place for community, The Oxford invites you to experience the extraordinary.

Following his success on Masterchef Australia seasons 11 & 12, and his very own plant-based cooking program on Channel 10, Simon Toohey is now offering his passion and expertise a little closer to home, as your very own private retreat chef. Not only that, but you’ll have the chance to learn delicious plant based recipes, tips and tricks from the vegetable ambassador himself. Our retreats are generously sponsored by Farmers Pick, an organisation that delivers perfectly good local fruit and veg that major supermarkets reject due to unrealistic beauty standards. Did you know that 30% of food is wasted at the farm, 30% at the supermarket, and 30% in the home? By eating perfectly imperfect fruit and veg, and learning how to make food last through preserving techniques (yes, Simon will teach you) we are doing the Earth, our wallets, and our stomachs a solid.

Have a passion for food but new to Yoga? You are welcome here. An experienced practitioner but would rather curl up on a couch than learn about sourdough? Bookworm away. Fancy a drink with dinner? BYO is A-Ok with us. Would rather something a little more mellow? We support that too. Needing some time away from the crowds? Daylesford is just down the road with cafes, interesting stores, gorgeous bush walks and scenery (+ we’re right in the middle of spa country). Essentially, this is your retreat, and however you’d like to customise it to suit you, we got you.

WellFed retreat exceeded all expectations. 

Simon, Georgia and the team provided such a nurturing space where we could all unwind, reflect, cook, eat, laugh and welcome joy! 

This couple are the real deal and offer something special and dynamic. 

Georgia holds a space in her yoga classes that opens your heart, and allows every fibre to breathe. She has a gift!

Simon brings not only an incredible amount of knowledge but bloody good humour to the kitchen. So generous of spirit, and eating his food was a privilege.

Nothing was overlooked, the preparation must have been massive, because it was so beautifully orchestrated. 

You are both quite remarkable & have a true gift for what you offer. Your passion & commitment is palpable. 

I felt so deeply nourished on every level!
