Purple House Is Not a Café, a Clinic, or a Stay.

It is a Living Sanctuary for the Nervous System, the Body, and the Soul.

People don’t come to the Purple House by accident.

They arrive because something in them is tired.

And not just physically, but tired of noise, pressure, decision-making, inflammation, disconnection, and the constant low-grade stress that modern life quietly demands.

Can you relate to that feeling?

Some come for a coffee, others for a meal, and many guests stay on the property. 

Over the years, people have come from far and wide.

And often, they will say: “I don’t know why, but I feel like myself again.”

A Place Designed to Calm the Human System

The Purple House is not built around trends. 

It’s built around how humans actually heal from the ground up. 

Before there were clinics and cafés, there were gardens, hearths, walking paths, shared meals, quiet nights, and elders who understood the body’s rhythms.

This is what we’ve have created here since 1999, when we bought the old ‘Manse’ in Forth, and turned the barren land into lush gardens, forest, mazes and labyrinths.

At the heart of it all is Purple House Kitchen, set within the wider Purple House Garden Estate, a nine-acre forest, food gardens, mazes, wildlife corridors, and places to sit, breathe, and remember that you belong to the Earth.

It is regulation, nourishment, containment, and restoration — offered quietly, consistently, and without force.

Eat Clean, Feel Alive — Food That Gives Back More Than It Takes

At the Purple House Kitchen, food is not entertainment.

It is information.

Every ingredient either supports your nervous system or drains it, and most people don’t realise how much energy they’ve been spending just digesting the wrong things.

  • Real fats — butter, ghee, tallow — because your brain, hormones, and nerves require them
  • No industrial seed oils, no shortcuts, no chemical fillers
  • Local Tasmanian organic produce, grown by people who care for the land
  • Naturally fermented sourdough, made with Tasmanian-grown organic flour — bread your body actually recognises
  • Organic coffee and teas that lift without hijacking your adrenals
  • Energising smoothies
  • Detox and mineral-rich blends
  • Fermented drinks to restore gut intelligence
  • Wild-crafted wines chosen for purity, not marketing

And yes — the cakes, slices, and raw treats matter too.

Because joy is medicinal, and deprivation is not healing.

You don’t need to understand the science.

Your body already does.

A Café in the Forest 

Have you ever noticed that the moment you step onto the land, something shifts from deep within? 

The Purple House Garden Estate is intentionally designed so that nature regulates you without asking anything in return.

You can:

Food + forest + time is a combination most people haven’t experienced properly in years.

Your body will suddenly remember how great it feels to be alive!

Stay the Night and Let the Reset Complete Itself

Some resets can’t be rushed.

That’s why we offer on-site accommodation, including vintage caravans and a cosy forest cottage tucked into the land.

When you stay, you receive something rare:

Many guests arrive wired and weary and they leave taller, clearer, and grounded.

Not because we did anything to them but because nothing was demanded of them.

What Happens When the Body Finally Feels Safe?

When you combine:

  • Clean, nourishing food
  • Fresh air and natural light
  • Gentle movement through land
  • A non-stimulating environment
  • A place that doesn’t rush or sell or push

Something remarkable happens.

  • Digestion improves.
  • Energy stabilises.
  • Sleep deepens.
  • Mood lifts
  • Clarity returns
  • Your happiness ceiling goes up

A Living Expression of 25 Years of Healing Work

The Purple House didn’t start as a destination.

It began with one woman and one man listening deeply to the body, the land, and the unseen intelligence that runs through both.

Grada & Peter Robertson have spent more than 25 years helping people resolve trauma, illness, pain, and disconnection, not by bypassing the body, but by teaching people how to inhabit it again.

The Kitchen & Stay is not separate from that work.

It is the physical, edible, walk-in version.

For those who feel called deeper, the Purple House also offers:

Not a Quick Fix — A Recalibration

If you’re exhausted by:

  • Processed food pretending to be nourishment
  • “Wellness” that creates more pressure
  • Being overstimulated and under-resourced
  • Carrying everyone else without being held

Then the Purple House exists for you.

Just good food, good land, and the space to remember who you are when your system is supported.

  • Eat well.
  • Sleep well.
  • Slow down and give yourself a chance to Reset fully.

The Purple House Wellness Centre is not a café, not a room, not a program.

It is a sanctuary for the human system quietly waiting for those who are ready to exhale.
