Countryside pretty enough to go on a postcard.

Welcome to 'Retreat'.
Once home of the "Retreat Homestead," with many of the magnificent original out building still remaining like the bachelors quarters, the now four bay machinery shed that was once part of the large stable complex that was on the property and also used to house the draft horse wagons, there is also the old meat house. The dairy shed has been made in more recent years with the bricks remaining from the old homestead. For every 100 bricks made by convicts back in the day (approximately 1841) they would put a thumbprint in the brick.... Still to this day you can see the thumbprints in some of the bricks!
