YOUR HOSTS
We're passionate about providing an exceptional stay for our guests and are honoured to share our home with you. We were a little nervous at first I must confess. It's been a wonderful refuge for friends and family over the years and has always cultivated harmony. It developed a wonderful energy and vibe and we’ve happily discovered that sharing it with guests has augmented its goodness.
Each of you infuses it with more life, warmth, inspiration and charm. You will find refuge here, a happy home where all its shelters thrive. Being blessed to find love recently we just don’t need two homes and are honoured to share this happy haven.
As a home designer and builder - I have had my architectural and interior design company for over 25 years mkdb I understand the importance of a solid nourishing home base that is comfortable, beautiful and convenient.
Please book your stay at our charming urban retreat and experience the city like a true local. We look forward to hosting you and making your visit truly special.
