Ballara Art & Lifestyle Retreat

A brief history of Ballara...Ballara is the 100-year-old family home built for William and Emilia (Millie) Baker & their five children. Built in 1910, it is understood Millie would not come to Warooka until the house was finished and furnished! Wise woman!William Baker came to Warooka as a young boy in 1884 with his mother, sister and 2 brothers, after the sudden death of his father.In the early 1900s, Will and his brother Alf became storekeepers, trading as Baker Bros. and running 2 stores in Warooka. Will, Alf and younger brother, Tom, also went on to become farmers.William met Millie when she came from Ballarat to visit her sister who lived at Warooka. Millie named her new home 'Ballara' in memory of her home town.A feature of the house is its ornate ceilings, and story has it that visitors came from afar especially to view them.William ran a wheat agency from an office on the front verandah and was also a contact for World War 1 recruitment.In 1927, William sadly died at only 50 years of age, leaving Millie on her own with their 5 children Doreen, Dulcie, William jr. (Bill), Ron, and Betsy.Millie died in 1965 and Ron continued living at Ballara until his death in 1988.Having never married and with no children of his own, Ron left the house and contents to his 10 nieces and nephews.After the family furniture was divided, Bill bought the house and placed it in the names of his three daughters.Carli and Penny were both able to enjoy some time living in the family home. Ballara still remains in the Baker family and is currently being cared for by Bill’s youngest daughter, Steph.

Bayside Glamping

Bayside Glamping offers a unique glamping experience in Marion Bay, SA, on the door step of the gorgeous Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park.

Our glamping setup is only for 2 adults, and is perfect for couple’s getaways, or two friends wanting to relax near the beach together.

Our setup is completely unique, as its made of mostly recycled timber to add to it's exclusive charm.

Bayside consists of a 5 metre wide, double door bell tent, on a deck with an outdoor kitchen and indoor bathroom, all with hot water and electricity.

Inside the generously sized tent, is a bed with a pillow-top mattress, complete with luxurious bedding from Eco Downunder, where you’ll have the perfect night’s sleep drifting off to the sound of waves crashing in the background.

The tent is lit by bedside lamps at night, and has a variety of battery operated candles to set the mood. A fan is also included.

The outdoor kitchen has a bar fridge, gas BBQ with hot plate and grill plate, plates, cups, platters, mugs, glasses (drinking, wine & champagne), small coffee plunger, utensils and cutlery.

The kitchen also has oil and paper towel.

The fully indoor bathroom has a hot shower, vanity and flushing toilet.

The large deck has a dining area and deck chairs for catching some rays. The deck area is lit up at night by fairy lights and solar lanterns, to add to the magical atmosphere.

Inclusions:

• Variety of teas, coffee, sugar & small milks • Natural Look Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash • Eco Downunder luxurious bedding • Eco Downunder bath sheets, face washes, hand towel & bathmat

Fun extras:

• Pack of playing cards • Connect 4 • Puzzles • Books • Colouring in books and pencils

You have access to the full site, with no shared amenities. You will notice that the site is on the back of my dad's property, but it is completely private.

Other things to note:

Pets aren’t allowed sorry, as much as we’d love to let you bring your furry friend on holidays, the tent isn’t suitable to leave a dog in while going into the National Park.

Mobile phone signal is limited, whilst Telstra and Optus work in the town, Vodafone stops working just after Warooka. Please also note that there is very limited mobile phone signal in Innes National Park.

To keep our setup as in touch with nature as possible, all facilities are not completely out of the weather. Whilst glamping is a major step above camping, the kitchen facilities and table and chairs are still prone to bad weather.
