Six volumes, more than nine hundred pages, and enough beautiful places, curious people and wonderfully told stories to keep you occupied for a very long afternoon.
Six volumes. One complete story.
The Full Collection brings together Volumes 01 through 06 of Stay Awhile, each one filled with remarkable experiences and places to stay across Australia and Aotearoa. Inside, you’ll wander through designer shacks, grand old hotels, converted seaside motels, working cattle stations, tiny cabins hidden among the trees and boathouses made for disappearing into.
Along the way, you’ll meet the hosts, makers, architects, artists and wonderfully determined dreamers who brought these places to life. There are stories of unlikely beginnings, ambitious renovations, family legacies, creative risks and the occasional delightful disaster. There are essays on travel and place, conversations worth settling in for, and photography that will have you planning trips you never thought of taking.
More than a magazine — a keepsake.
Part travel companion, part coffee-table keepsake, this is a collection to read slowly, return to often and leave somewhere within easy reach. It is for planning future adventures, reliving past ones, and briefly transporting yourself elsewhere when the furthest you intend to travel is from the sofa to the kettle.
Together, the six volumes form the complete Stay Awhile story so far, filled with slow travel, thoughtful design, unforgettable experiences and the untold stories behind some of the region's most special places.
A finite, foundational set.
The Full Collection will always remain Volumes 01 through 06. As new editions are released, they will be sold separately, while this set remains a finite collection of the six foundational issues that began Stay Awhile.
Once these volumes are gone, they are gone.
The whole shelf, for less.
Purchased individually, the six issues total $204, before postage. The Full Collection is $179, with free shipping across Australia and Aotearoa.
A little kinder on the wallet, and an excellent excuse to rearrange the coffee table.
What you will find inside
More than nine hundred pages of travel stories, essays, interviews and photography from writers and photographers across Australia and Aotearoa.
A carefully curated collection of stays, from five-star resorts and storied hotels to seaside motels, working farms, design-led cabins and tiny hideaways in the bush.
The people behind the places, including the hosts, makers and creative minds who imagined them, built them and kept going when the sensible option may have been to stop.
Thoughtful writing on slow travel, design, creativity, landscape and our enduring desire to go somewhere new.
Six distinct and substantial volumes, printed on high-quality, environmentally responsible paper stock, with the weight and feel of a beautiful book.
A collection made to be read, displayed, shared and returned to, rather than flicked through once and forgotten beneath a pile of takeaway menus.
The complete foundational set of Stay Awhile, Volumes 01 through 06.
Authenticity is the new luxury.
Stay Awhile is an ode to genuinely special places and the stories that give them soul. From five-star resorts to tiny cabins in the bush, every place we feature has been chosen for the way it makes you feel, the people who shaped it and the particular magic that cannot be measured by thread count alone.
Slow down. Stay awhile. Authenticity is the new luxury.
For discerning and curious travellers, design lovers, culture hunters and experience seekers who prefer their holidays with a good story attached.
