Unlock your creativity by escaping to the heart of Western Australia’s majestic karri forest at Donnelly River Village. Enjoy four nights in a rustic and cosy cottage with its inside fireplace as you indulge in distraction-free writing time (or even just reading time.)

This is a one -of-a-kind opportunity to immerse yourself in the environment of the beautiful south-west and befriend the wildlife that have inspired many books by Fremantle Press children’s author Deb Fitzpatrick. Close to the beautiful hiking trails of the Bibbulmun Track and Munda Biddi Trail, the retreat is perfect for writers, readers and walkers and includes a care package and a curated stack of Fremantle Press books (including Tawny Trouble!)

Valued at $600. Provided by Deb Fitzpatrick. Dates are flexible but must be mid-week (Monday – Friday) and outside of school holidays.
