Natural heatingThe thick rammed earth walls keep the cabin insulated so you stay cool in summer and toasty and warm in winter. There is no need for air conditioning as the building regulates the temperature for you.
The wrap around windows ensure the sun warms up the earth and the baker’s oven adds an extra layer of warmth and coziness in winter. Blinds and louver windows are also available to cool the cabin down should you need some fresh air in the warmer months. |
Bringing nature indoorsNestled amongst granite boulders and old banksia trees the Soul Cabin is embraced by the country landscape. Wherever you are you feel the warmth and spirit of the Granite Belt bushland.
Wake up to the morning sun and be captivated by the kangaroos feeding in the grass pasture as you sip your coffee on the deck. Enjoy the shifting shadows of the old banksia tree as you prepare meals and watch the birdlife enjoy the natural gardens surrounding the cabin as you relax under the rain shower. |
Harnessing sustainable energyThere are no power lines anywhere on the Earth & Soul property. The closest grid connection is almost 2 kilometers away. The restorative properties of our retreat are enhanced with no light or sound pollution.
When you stay with us, you will get to experience living off-grid on a stand-alone solar powered energy system. We have a 2.97kW solar array with 5.88 kWh battery system - meaning the system will generate plenty of energy for your stay - on average 13 kWh a day. |

This nook is raised to overlook the native gardens of the private Angel Wings Labyrinth and makes the most of the open plan design of the cabin. You’ll often awake to friendly kangaroos feeding just outside your window. |

Snuggle up in the soft robes provided for you to dry off afterwards. With a view of the starry night sky, it is pure heaven.

Angel Wings LabyrinthThe theme of the Soul Cabin is enhanced with a private garden feature, the Angel Wings Labyrinth designed by Mark Healy of the Labyrinth Collective. The Labyrinth is designed for personal introspection, meditation and contemplation. It has a granite seat in the middle which is perfect for resting amongst the flowers and taking in the vista of the Soul Cabin and surrounding bushland.

Tree of Life Spiritual WalkThe Soul Cabin is also situated alongside the Tree of Life Spiritual Walk. This is a quiet, open space based upon a model of the creation of the universe, energy, the soul and life. Natural granite rocks are arranged to represent the Kabbalah’ s Tree of Life and the Tarot’s Major Arcana label each path. This is a beautiful place to just be, walk in the fresh air and appreciate the natural surrounds.
|
Heart of the Granite BeltThe Soul Cabin is nestled between granite boulders and soulful bushland. As you step through the door, you can see how the building creates a secluded oasis in amongst the surrounding banksia and wattle trees. Far from the noise and distractions of everyday life, you will be able to truly immerse in the natural world around you.
