The Breath
Have you ever held your breath because you were looking at something so beautiful it was simply, breathtaking?
Our design was to capture just this feeling. The moment you walk through the front door you’ll catch your breath.
Take in the views from every window & door. On a clear night lay in bed & see more stars in the sky than you ever imagined.
Step outside & feel the warmth of the merbau wooden deck, crafted to wrap around the ridge edge, giving you plenty of spaces to sit up high where the birds fly.
The Breath
“Greatness happens when the person with wild imagination collaborates with the person who knows how to get things done.”

Welcome to our Jungle
We had been travelled this great country for many years with our young family when we first found ourselves in this tiny area, 105kms south of Darwin, just before Litchfield National Park called Rum Jungle.
The moment we drove up the dirt track onto the property, we looked at each other and instantly knew this was going to be our new home & we wanted to share it.
It has been a journey.
We’re not afraid of hard work; we started the much-needed repairs to the buildings & to the land itself, unfortunately the whole block was riddled with invasive weeds like Gamba grass, household rubbish, car bodies & the odd trailer chassis.
We knew we had to give back to this land & restore the bushland to its true glory.
With our trusty tractor that’s what we have done.
And continue to do.
“The Ridge Retreat is a secluded and private space for you to enjoy the magic of this country.
We have written the story; it’s time for you to immerse yourself within it.”
