There is no doubt about it, the weather has cooled, the days are shorter and our last vacation seems like a distant memory.

For many, Winter is the season they could best do without. We tend to hide away, hibernating under flannelette pyjamas and cosy blankets, neglecting our social lives and lusting after a fun weekend getaway.

Despite these misgivings, Winter can actually present the ideal season to gather your girlfriends, pack the overnight bag and escape the hustle and bustle of the city in favour of a relaxing weekend retreat.

Today, we discuss how easy it is to organise a quick getaway with your nearest and dearest and how you can make it a weekend to remember.

Pampering –

If it is pampering that you are after, Mountain Whispers has got you covered. Why not organise a group pamper session during your stay? Imagine it now, you and your handful of besties enjoying aromatherapy massages and cleansing facials while scented candles and soothing soundtracks take you away from your busy lives. Enjoy a glass of bubbly and a long soak in a hot bath while you finally catch up navigating that book you’ve been meaning to read. Or even better, ditch the alarm and wake up when your body tells you it’s time – sounds absolutely blissful, right?

Drinks and Nibbles –

Nothing says Girls Weekend Away more than lengthy chats over cheese plates and gloriously palatable wine. Light the fire, grab a blanket and spend your evenings swapping stories on comfortable lounges, forgetting the time and enjoying the uninterrupted moments you’ve been longing for. If you are desperate for a night off in the kitchen, treat yourselves to your own private chef, who’ll prepare and serve your favourite winter warmers, and enjoy a beautiful meal from the comfort of your own private escape. Wake up to breakfast provisions fit for a queen, choosing from bacon and eggs, fresh pastries and locally sourced preserves. Take your time to nuture every mouthful of steaming coffee, the day is yours and there is no need to rush your morning.

Activities –

Of course, the desire to relax and enjoy each hour with your girlfriends may well be prevalent, but for many, an organised activity is just what the doctor ordered. Don your coat and gumboots for a leisurely stroll through the picturesque mountains, enjoying the crisp air and the stunning Australian landscape. Book in a horse riding lesson, a sure fire way to induce fits of giggles from you and your comrades. Or perhaps indulge in a tour of our best wineries and providores, a favourite amongst foodies who jump at the opportunity to taste local fare. Don’t want to drive and worry about counting your glasses? Not a problem, we can organise collection and drop off back to your Mountain Whispers Luxury Accommodation when it suits you best, so all you have to worry about is enjoying your much-needed holiday.

While Winter presents what seems to be an opportunity to bunker down, it also offers a perfect excuse to escape to the mountains with your favourite girlfriends, to pamper yourselves, eat and drink till your heart is content whilst exploring the beautiful surrounds with those you love.
