Things we love...
"I wanted to stay here forever. The views are just amazing and I particularly loved the courtyard which features a water feature and stone seats facing each other which I named the 'love seats'. Historically, a young couple who were not yet married, would sit in the seats and get to know each other while being watched over from the main house by their parents so nothing inappropriate could happen! So adorable and just adds to the historical magic of this property". Ginnie, Managing Director.
