Stories of planting the magnificent gardens over the years, a history of every work of art and a story behind each piece of furniture are what make this an enchanting retreat ideal for family reunions, get together and special occasions.
Set in 2.5 acres of complete privacy there are gardens, patios and terraces to lose yourself in or to be enjoyed with the group for al fresco dinner under the stars or long, lingering mid-day lunches. A large pool for family fun and plenty of shady trees for reading and relaxing.
A welcoming home with an emphasis on comfort and charm is decorated with tantalizing pieces from around the world; a home that tells stories and beckons the guest to enjoy and slow down.
