Escape to the tranquil beauty of Melody Hill Retreat, tucked away in a pecan orchard along the banks of the Magalies River, just an hour’s drive from Johannesburg. Here, in the heart of a lush valley, you’ll find the perfect sanctuary to slow down, breathe deeply, and immerse yourself in the meditative art of skull carving.
What’s Included:
✨ Five Nights’ Accommodation
Enjoy the peaceful, self-catering accommodation at Melody Hill Retreat, where the gentle rustling of pecan trees and the soothing flow of the river create a calming backdrop for rest and creativity.
✨ Daily Skull Carving Sessions
With my personal guidance, you’ll dive into the art of bone carving—learning the techniques, the patience, and the flow that transforms a simple skull into a work of art. Beginners and experienced carvers alike are welcome.
✨ Peaceful Natural Setting
From sunrise meditations to evening strolls through the orchard, Melody Hill offers quiet spaces to reflect and rejuvenate between carving sessions.
