About the host
Hosted by Maria Nati
Hi there! My name is Maria Nati. Together with my husband Rick, we own and run Riverview Nature Retreat.
We love to getaway regularly to reset and recharge from life's pressures and decided to buy our own place in the country that we could escape to often. We wanted a place that is close enough to home but feels like miles away from it all. A place that is surrounded by nature and wildlife. A place where we can disconnect from all devices so we can engage in conversation. A simple place with all the amenities for a comfortable stay.
We wanted to give this place a vintage Australiana feel to it which we feel is in keeping with the local area and its pioneering history. We have collected a lot of Australian artwork that depicts the bush and homesteads. We also wanted it to feel homely and inviting and have decorated it with that in mind.
We love our getaway home and are happy to share it with you to enjoy with your family and friends.
