The Retreat

Talle Lifestyle Retreat, Cafe and Wellness Centre is a long-established investment with a robust revenue stream, located on the Gold Coast in the lush green HInterland, and yet only 10 minutes from the sandy coastal beaches at Burleigh Heads and its iconic dining and retail precincts. Located in the famed Tallebudgera Valley, renowned for its lush green natural landscape with captivating hiking trails and cascading waterfalls. The Retreat is in good company as the valley is also home to the world-renowned Gwinganna Lifestyle Centre and the Eden Health Retreat, in the adjacent valley.

The Retreat has been developed over a number of years, with a capacity of 25 bedrooms. Made up of a 4 bedroom traditional farmhouse, 3 bedroom secondary dwelling and six 3 bedroom, self-contained villas. All structures have been designed around eco-friendly building practices, to minimise carbon footprints, sustainable living, use of raw timber and natural materials, touching the land lightly and retaining natural, tropical vegetation. Each building has a private deck, looking over the rainforest.

The Retreat encompasses a 7 acre, tranquil rainforest and is surrounded by designated environmentally significant forests of local native flora and fauna, where time relaxes its grip and refreshes one’s body and mind. Talle Valley is blessed with lush pastures and tropical forests, including touching the world-renowned Springbrook National park, famous for bushwalking, native rainforests and crystal clear waterfalls.

The main community building, affectionately known locally as the “Talle Tea House”, is open to the public and forms a well-known Gold Coast hub, of art and a wellness centre. Apart from the very popular and healthy meals, it boasts a conference room, meeting rooms, therapy rooms and an art gallery. The cafe offers a place to relax and a focal point for meeting friends. On the ground floor, wellness rooms, allow you to spoil yourself with reiki and spiritual readings, along with a variety of massage techniques, including; ancient healing, remedial, Loimni Lomi, Kahuna along with facials, creative Ayurvedic and lymphatic drainage, workshops, yoga, and biochemical analysis, and meditation sessions, are balanced with country produce and regular music sessions, to create a very popular attraction.

Whilst the onsite community hub focusses on wellness, a large range of physical activities are available nearby, focussing on beachfront yoga, horse riding, forest walks, bike riding, surfing lessons, kayaking, and SUP boards on the Tallebudgera Creek, along with the endless activities available on the Gold Coast.

Whilst the Gold Coast is renowned for never-ending sandy beaches, hig-rise towers, hotels and theme parks, the nearby Tallebdugera Creek flows to beautiful Burleigh Heads, only 10 minutes by road. Talle Creek is a great place to cool off in its crystal clear, slow flowing ocean water on the south side of Burleigh Hill. The north side of Burleigh is a famous surf beach and Burleigh Town, known for its myriad of family-friendly venues, fine dining, and farm-to-plate restaurants, specialising in fresh ingredients and local produce, who are the heroes of the Gold Coast dining scene.

Talle Creek

Talle Creek runs nearby and is a great place to cool off on a hot day. You can swim or take a leisurely float along the freshwater section, enjoying the scenery and tranquility, however, the most popular spot is where it meets the Pacific Ocean, at the patrolled south side of Burleigh Hill. It is a tranquil, family-orientated spot, with an eco beach, calm, river, or patrolled surf beach.

Gold Coast

Apart from the adrenaline-infused activities and theme parks just behind the coastal strip, the Gold Coast has a beautiful green backdrop, ‘the Hinterland’. A place of undefined boundaries, where time relaxes its grip. Gold Coast is part of a 100,000-hectare wilderness, including 25,000 hectares of world heritage-listed rainforest, and Talle Lifestyle Retreat is nestled within. One can absorb the peace and refreshment that comes from lush natural landscapes, captivating hiking trails through lush rainforests, crystal clear rock pools, cascading waterfalls, spectacular lookouts, and scenic drives. One of Australia’s oldest national parks is interspersed with quaint villages, tea shops, art galleries, microbreweries, and wineries.

Burleigh Heads

Burleigh Heads is a different perspective, with a beautiful oceanfront walking track through coastal forests, a famous patrolled surf beach, and a myriad of ‘hipster’ restaurants and coffee shops/cafes.

History


Talle Lifestyle Retreat was developed over the last 30 years as Talle Rainforest Retreat. The property, formerly a tropical fruit farm, comprised a farmhoue and machinery sheds, yet preserved a susbtantial rainforest within. Originally it was intened to focus on arts, gallery and tropical foods. The house was subsequently upgraded and the cafe was then constructed. By then, it had evolved into a site for holistic and natural therapies.

The cafe, gallery and wellness centre quickly pogresed to be a focus for not only the Hinterland Valley and Burleigh residents, but also atrtracted patrongage from as far as Brisbane and Northern NSW, trading as the Hinterland Hideaway Cafe. Being well known on Facebook and Instagram for it’s eclectic mix.

The farm retreat progressed, with the construction of two houses and six accommodation units, into a boutique getaway in the green Gold Coast Hinterland, yet close enough to the pristine beaches, bright lights and tourist facilities. All buildings were designed to ‘touch the land lightly’, with minimal disturbance of the soil profile, use of raw timbers and in harmony with contours of the land, providing maximum privacy and retreat from the hectic Gold Coast lifestyle.

Alongside the construction was the planting of many thousands of plants and trees, endemic to the Valley, with a focus on edible “field to plate” Australian native plant foods, sustainability and ethically farmed produce.
