Last year we realised an opportunity to invite an important Aboriginal Lore group to be co-custodians at Yambulla. We cemented the relationship in December by gifting them one of our favourite pieces of Yambulla. The gift parcel sits beside our most important waterhole where sits an important ‘Mother Tree’ and has a separate access road, keeping it very private. We couldn't be happier to have this group as our neighbour, giving us Cultural guidance.
35 men enjoyed a weekend of glorious weather, artefact making, walking, undertaking ceremony, roadwork and getting to know their new home. We were deeply moved to be invited to join them for an evening of yarning around a fire over dinner then a Reflection Circle around their ceremonial fire. Having this deeply connected Aboriginal group here in the Yambulla valley, on their own Country, was an important step in decolonising this land, opening the door to walking together to care for this Country.
The artefacts they made us on camp were presented that night and we will treasure these objects for ever.
Feel at home in our secluded, architect-designed off-grid guest lodge. Surrounded by nothing but nature as far as the eye can see.
Cool and breezy inthe summer and cosy with wood-fired central heatingin the winter.
We acknowledge the First Nations Peoples as the first inhabitants and traditional custodians of the Yambulla valley and surrounding areas.
We recognise and value their continuing connection to the land and culture.
