We find out more as the company celebrates its recent success in the Retreat and Resort Awards 2023. business or pleasure, you will find that we go out of our way to ensure your stay with us is truly memorable.” Perhaps, due to the cost-of-living increase or as a result of postpandemic life, but Bridget has noticed an increase in locals holidaying at home rather than venturing further afield or abroad, with most of the firm’s bookings being from people who live within 50 kilometres of The Retreat’s residence. To this end, the firm has diversified to offer affordable mid-week one-night bookings for people wanting quick and easy getaways that aren’t too far away from home. Recently, in recognition of its hard work and dedication to its loyal customers, The Retreat Stirling property was named Best Luxury B&B 2023 - Adelaide Hills in the Resort and Retreat Awards. Understandably delighted by this prestigious accolade, Bridget and the team are now looking forward to a bright future, with improvements being made to the accommodation, having already renovated an apartment in 2023 and hoping to have another one finished by the end of the year.
