You can either choose to stay in the Lodge, which offers 5 exquisitely comfortable en-suite bedrooms or in one of the 4 villas sleeping between 4 and 8 people. Each of the villas have their own individual interior theme, designed by the prominent interior decorator Sarah Ord. Each villa also boasts their own well-sized pool and verdant garden, ideal for enjoying a glass of wine from the property's own vineyards.
