Rooms

The main house has four king or twin rooms and a single room, and there are two detached units, Vine Cottage and The Studio, situated in the grounds. All come with superb views of either the mountains or vineyards. Varying in size and character, the rooms share the same level of attention to detail, featuring under-floor heating and/or a fireplace, an en suite bathroom with heated towel rails, homemade biscuits, satellite TVs, hair dryers, minibars and safes, as well as tea/coffee facilities.

The rooms in the main house are named after different trees found in the garden, and each have their own personality, with some offering direct access to the garden through French doors. The Studio is separate from the main house, featuring a queen size bed, separate seating area with a fireplace and a private veranda with wonderful mountain views. It offers ample space, with high ceilings and wooden beams adding to its character. Vine Cottage has a colonial feel, featuring a queen size bed, a small dining area and a separate lounge area with a fireplace. French doors open out to a large private terrace set beneath vines, which makes a lovely place to relax as you enjoy your surroundings.
