Blending a riot of colour and a heady air of romance, you’ll find a cluster of stylish retreats scattered across a glorious garden; the lush lawn is sprinkled with colourful flowerbeds and quirky signage, lanterns and wooden flowers, and the trees blossom with candlyfloss pink and cream flowers in the spring. There’s also a sun-baked deck for laidback moments the sun, and a sheltered hot tub – just the spot for champagne and honeymoons.

Hugged by private courtyards, the luxurious Hiding Places – Nook and Cranny – pop with colour and character. Blending eye-catching design with luxe, cosy comforts, such as a dive-into-me bed, woodturner and retro Smeg fridge, these gorgeous spots beg you to relax, unwind and indulge. The Hideaway offers colour and romance in abundance; there’s a super king-size bed, a slipper bath and even a gypsy caravan in the private garden.

Three more suites in the main house, offer individual design, rich palettes and must-come-back comforts. There’s also a therapy room, where a menu of beauty treatments and massages are conducted in candlelit comfort.

This is a hidden gem for small-scale weddings and elopements. Tucked away in the gardens, the ‘Wed Shed’, offers a unique spot to take your vows, the gorgeous printed chairs, quirky-cool desk and light up ‘wed me’ letters creating a fun vibe with a twist of Mexican fiesta.

The Lounge blends the same vibrant character with snug furnishings and glamorous accents, is also licensed for ceremonies.

After your vows you may like a picnic in the gardens, a loved-up stroll across a local beach or a delicious feast in The Shack, an enchanting retreat in the wildflower garden, amidst a carnival of candles and fairy lights, and a roaring log fire. Absorb the romance of this exquisite spot with a soak in the hot tub under the stars or a glass of champagne in the gypsy caravan – just the two of you.
