Sanctuary Respite Centre Information

Respite allows the carer to take a break from the caring role.  Sanctuary Respite cottages provide a positive and enjoyable experience, not only for yourself but for the person you care for.  Respite gives you time out to rest and recover and helps you to find the balance between caring for others and caring for yourself.

Our 3 delightful cottages can be found at the stunningly picturesque North Head, Manly.  These charming self-contained sanctuaries have been designed and decorated to enhance the respite experience.   We can offer you relaxation, reflection and meditation or, bushwalking and informational tours
