Sit amidst vibrant birdlife or relax indoors in the cosy wing-backed chairs, perfectly positioned beneath a glass bell tower that brings the outside in. Here, you can also ring the bell to announce your arrival, adding a touch of whimsy to your stay.

The open-plan design is complemented by a bathroom featuring an antique basin and a copper “rain” shower for a spa-like touch. The entire space evokes nostalgia yet integrates modern comforts seamlessly.
