Set in tranquil coastal surroundings just 20 minutes from Port Macquarie, our venue gives your team or group the space you need to connect, reflect, plan and grow — away from the distractions of everyday life.
Facilities to support your group
Whether you’re organising a leadership retreat, team planning day, community workshop or corporate conference, we have the facilities to support your program.
Onsite accommodation caters to your whole group, with dormitory-style rooms (up to 88 guests), self-contained coastal cabins, and dedicated leader or supervisor rooms, all with ensuite and accessible options.
During downtime, groups can enjoy the swimming pool, sports courts, or take a short stroll to the beach — ideal for team building, relaxation, or outdoor activities.
Every group benefits from time to recharge and connect. At the Francis Retreat, you’ll have access to open outdoor spaces, sporting facilities and the nearby beach, offering opportunities for informal team building, reflection or downtime between sessions.
A short drive away, Dooragan National Park and Port Macquarie provide additional options for group activities, dining or experiences.
These options allow you to balance focused sessions with time to step away, ensuring a well-rounded and engaging retreat experience.
No two groups are the same. We work with you to shape a retreat or conference that suits your objectives, your schedule and your team. From accommodation and catering to how you use each space, every detail is considered so your program runs smoothly.

We acknowledge their deep connection to this land, its waters, skies, and stories, nurtured with wisdom, care, and resilience for countless generations. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging and extend this respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
