The space
Nestled within lush tropical gardens, the beautifully designed guest suite offers a peaceful escape where comfort and relaxation take centre stage. With curated interiors and leafy garden views, everything needed for a restful stay is thoughtfully provided – from the comfy bed to considered, high-quality amenities.
The glasshouse in the garden offers a cosy retreat with a 55-inch Smart TV with Google TV & Chromecast, sofa, fireplace, books and board games – an inviting space to retreat to day and night.
Unwind in the 24-hour hot tub, refresh beneath the palms in the outdoor heated shower, or enjoy a casual putt on the putting green – a playful addition to the garden.
Enjoy a dreamy sleep in the guest suite with hotel-quality linen, feather & Bliss pillows, blackout curtains, privacy sheers and air conditioning. Plush robes, eco slippers and Ashley & Co body and hair care products add a subtle layer of luxury. The ensuite features a spacious walk-in shower finished in travertine and slate tiles.
Relax on your private balcony, an easy spot to start the morning with freshly brewed coffee. A work desk, digital entry, in-room safe and on-site parking ensure comfort and convenience throughout your stay.
