Facilities
Why we use compostable toilets
At Wollemi Ridge Retreats, we use waterless compostable toilets to support sustainable, off-grid living. Traditional toilets use up to 12 litres of clean water per flush, compostable toilets use none—helping us conserve water and protect the environment. Our facilities are fitted with a quiet exhaust fan to keep them completely odourless and fresh. Simple to use and eco-friendly, they’re just one way we tread lightly on the land.
Gravity-fed showers
Our shower is gravity-fed, offering a beautifully simple solution for off-grid living. Without the need for pumps or mains power, water flows naturally from a tank positioned above the bathroom, creating a lovely pressure that guests often rave about. It’s a gentle reminder that comfort and sustainability can go hand in hand—even in the heart of nature.
Off-grid power
Our retreats are powered by a combination of solar energy and gas, allowing us to stay completely off-grid while still providing modern comforts. Solar panels harness the sun’s energy for lighting and basic power needs, while gas is used for cooking and hot water—offering a reliable, eco-friendly setup that keeps your stay both comfortable and sustainable.
Farm Shed
Functions
At Wollemi Ridge Retreats, our Farm Shed is a versatile, welcoming space designed to bring people together. Set against sweeping bush views, this 7m x 9m open-plan structure is ideal for gatherings of all kinds, with a seamless indoor-outdoor feel as it opens on both sides to the surrounding landscape.
The Farm Shed offers a relaxed and flexible setting for small functions and group gatherings. With a large wooden working table, comfortable lounge area, TV, and easy access to BBQ and gas cooking facilities, it’s well suited to shared meals, celebrations, or casual events in a beautiful natural setting.
Wellness
Perfect for yoga and pilates, the shed provides a calm, open space that connects directly with nature. Fresh air flows through the open sides, while the quiet bush surrounds create an ideal environment for movement, breathwork, and mindful practices.
Workshops
Designed to support creativity and collaboration, the Farm Shed is a practical space for workshops and group activities. The generous layout, large table, and simple off-grid setup make it easy to host hands-on sessions, retreats, or learning experiences in a grounded, inspiring environment.
With a kitchenette, fridge, tank water, off-grid power, and a cosy fireplace for cooler days, the Farm Shed balances comfort with simplicity—offering a space where people can gather, create, and unwind.
