Kookaburra Yoga Stay
unique renovated railway carriage for 1 or 2, with free yoga classes during your stay. Kookaburra Creek is a vegetarian property. Enjoy wifi, aircon, onsite parking.
Stay in a tranquil, private, beautifully renovated, fully self-contained railway carriage on the grounds of Kookaburra Creek, a 10 acre eco-friendly property and yoga centre, home to the Kookaburra Yoga School and also many kangaroos, kookaburras, cockatoos, owls, frogs, bees, bandicoots, goannas, king skinks and other wildlife. The entire property is a tranquil oasis, organic, solar-powered with extensive kitchen and food gardens. There is a spring-fed water supply which is both health-promoting to drink and soft on your skin. Only 40 minutes from Perth and Fremantle, this is an ideal venue for a short, private retreat or city break.
in the heart of nature
Staying at Kookaburra is a wonderful opportunity to de-stress, de-tox and be rejuvenated in a pristine natural environment away from the stressors of city, suburban and working life. The railway carriage is fully self-contained and private allowing you to be self-sufficient during your stay. If you are coming for a one day retreat, course or program you might like to give yourself the gift of a longer, more immersive experience by staying for a couple of nights.
Your accommodation is right by a meandering creek with a shady deck and is private, quiet and secluded. Set in the heart of nature, you'll be soothed by the sounds of the stream, birds, crickets, the wind in the trees. We welcome you to enjoy the healing power of nature. Whether you are simply in need of quiet time and safe solitude, or if you are looking for a space to focus in on your writing or creative projects, Kookaburra Creek is a place of peace, serenity and inspiration.
Give yourself permission to rest...
We often feel guilty about prioritising ourselves, particularly when we have responsibilities and accountabilities to our partners, children, parents, pets, colleagues, employers, employees...this list goes on! There is always a reason why others come first. And this is fine, we are here to serve and give and share love. But what happens when you don't take time to replenish your energy, to fully recharge and to take a short reprieve from the demands of life is that you may become stressed or unhappy or unwell - without fully understanding the reasons why. A solution may be to take a short, purposeful short break to recharge, reset and renew.
a place of peace
Kookaburra Creek is a place of natural beauty and purity. We live and run the centre on yogic principles and values. Therefore there is strictly no alcohol, meat, smoking or drugs in the building or anywhere on the grounds. A great opportunity to reevaluate and reset habits and lifestyle during your stay.
your private retreat
When booking, let us know what your aims are for your personal retreat so we can support you during your stay. You might be in need of deep rest or healing, de-stressing or simply having the space to reflect and just be. Or perhaps you'd like private yoga coaching or counselling to help you rediscover your life purpose, re-vision your life goals and develop strategies for moving forward.
