Create your own Festive Wreath at Heronswood House and Garden

Prepare for the festive season with Domenica Vavala, floral designer and artist, as she guides you through the making of a festive wreath using both dried and fresh locally sourced flora and foliage. Invite a friend and catch up while learning from a true artist. Domenica’s work draws on a love of floriculture, natural history, sustainability and the organic forms of Japanese and Korean floral design. You will leave with a beautiful, sustainable festive wreath, all ready for the season of joy.

Supper Club at the Red Hill Lavender Farm

$85.00pp for a 3-course menu, with local beers and wines available to purchase on the evening. Set menu, shared-style — made using the best local produce available at the time.

Sauna Aufguss every Friday at Peninsula Hot Springs

Guided by a trained Aufguss Master, the ritual begins as water infused with pure essential oils is poured onto the hot sauna stones. Using precise and rhythmic towel movements, the facilitator circulates waves of heat and aromatic steam through the room, creating a multisensory journey that is as invigorating as it is restorative.

This Spring, Seek the Heat at Peninsula Hot Springs with the launch of new and elevated sauna experiences. The Pop-up Sauna Space kicks off from 6 October and offers a seasonal escape featuring three premium Nordic saunas by Harmone, an outdoor fire, and lounge areas, with cold plunges nearby — perfect for gathering, warming, and unwinding beneath the open sky.
