About this property

Saturna Art Retreat

Rejuvenate your mind, body and soul in your own private outdoor spa with sweeping views over the valley. Ideal for your romantic escape.

Relax by the glass fronted slow-combustion heater with local wine after preparing dinner using the kitchen equipped with a full range of modern appliances (full fridge, microwave, electric stovetop and oven).

Saturna is a mudbrick and timber masterpiece and is a design based on passive solar heated principles (eco-friendly). It is built with eclectic architecture, sculptural and artisan finishes at the fore.

The large light filled main bedroom is on the mezzanine level with views to the Wombat state forest. It comfortably contains a Queen size sleigh bed and has a wall mounted flat screen TV with dvd.

Saturna's second bedroom with queen bed is located off the living/kitchen area. A set of french doors opens from the room onto a private deck and garden area. The second bedroom has a flat screen TV and DVD player.

There is a large bathroom with a shower over a half bath.

Saturna has a split system for main heating and air conditioning.

Saturna can be combined with Salt Spring to provide an accommodation for five couples with five large bedrooms, two bathrooms, two kitchens, large living area, one outside deep soak bathtub and rain shower, extensive outside sitting and dining areas and a private hot tub on the main deck joined by stairway access between both properties.

Fun quirky and relaxing
We loved the setting and quirky cottage. Close to Mill Markets which were a big highlight. Cherie was very attentive when we needed some help. I would love to return.

Stunning getaway
Satura is absolutely everything you would want! The hot tub is the stand out, love everything about it. The stunning art and plants surrounding the property makes it feel like a different place.

Tranquil getaway
An excellent weekend away with another couple. We enjoyed the spa which was already set and stayed hot so we could get in morning and night. The outdoor area was great for board games and the house was comfortable. I’d stay here again.
