Friends weekender

Gather your favourite people and escape to the ridge for a weekend that is entirely your own.

A Friends Weekender at Wollemi Ridge Retreat is designed for groups who want space to reconnect, celebrate and slow down together. With exclusive use of the property, you can shape the experience your way, whether you are planning a relaxed long weekend, a special celebration, or a much-needed catch-up in the bush.

Your private bush escape

This is not a shared stay. When you book the ridge, it is yours.

Wake slowly to birdsong, spend long afternoons exploring the bush, and come together in the evenings for shared meals under the stars. With flexible spaces to gather or spread out, the retreat offers the perfect balance of connection and breathing room.

Ideal for:

  • hens weekends and bucks celebrations

  • milestone birthdays

  • friendship reunions

  • small group getaways

  • long weekends with friends

Shape the weekend your way

Every Friends Weekender is different. Some groups come to fully switch off, others to celebrate, and many to do a bit of both.

You might choose to:

  • cook and share long table meals

  • explore walking trails and the surrounding bush

  • book in local experiences or in-house activities

  • enjoy slow mornings and unhurried afternoons

  • gather around the fire as the sun goes down

With private group accommodation and a flexible, self-paced approach, the weekend unfolds exactly how your group wants it to.

Space to gather. Room to breathe.

Wollemi Ridge Retreat offers a rare combination of seclusion, comfort and natural beauty, making it one of the most unique group getaway locations in NSW.

Here you will find:

  • exclusive use of the retreat

  • off-grid glamping immersed in nature

  • generous indoor and outdoor gathering spaces

  • peaceful bush surrounds just a few hours from Sydney

It is the kind of place where conversations run longer, laughter comes easier, and time finally feels like it slows down.
