Unwind @ Mannum Riverside Retreat

Set in the heart of Mannum, Unwind @ Mannum Riverside Retreat invites you to step inside a story 150 years in the making. Once the town’s beloved bakery, this beautifully reimagined homestead has been transformed into a high-end retreat offering boutique-style hotel suites and a guest house designed to inspire connection, indulgence, and calm.

Four private suites and shared kitchen, lounge, dining, courtyard and laundry.

From the moment you walk through the doors, you'll feel it – a sense of space, warmth, and charm that’s hard to find and even harder to leave. Unwind @ Mannum Riverside Retreat isn’t just accommodation – it’s a destination where old-world character meets contemporary comfort, and every corner whispers history, elegance, and relaxation.

Spaces That Invite Gathering – Share the Dream at Mannum Riverside Retreat

Designed with the vision of bringing people together, the central home showcases expansive open-plan living. Whether you’re gathering the whole family or curating a getaway with friends, this flexible, group-friendly property is ideal for celebrating life’s best moments.

The kitchen is a home cook’s dream, equipped with dual ovens, 8 gas burners, and an espresso machine – the heart of the home where meals become memories. Ten can gather around the stone island bench to sip, stir, chat, and cheer. From sunrise coffees to late-night feasts, the ambience here sets the scene for joyful connection.

The adjoining lounge and dining spaces flow seamlessly. Picture this: a long lunch that stretches into sunset, wine glasses clinking, conversations lingering. With plush sofas, a large smart TV, and space to seat up to 16 guests, this is where laughter lives.

FireStone – An Alfresco Escape Like No Other

Beyond the home’s walls, you’ll discover a secluded courtyard – your private sanctuary. Surrounded by heritage stone and steeped in character, this sunken outdoor haven is home to FireStone, a rustic-chic eatery and event venue centred around the original 150-year-old Scotch oven.

Whether you're firing up the BBQ, hosting a casual dinner under the stars, or planning an intimate celebration, this space was made for making memories. Relax around the fire pit, share stories over gourmet platters, or simply enjoy the peaceful charm of the historic surrounds. The space is yours to shape.
