Heritage accommodation with a fresh new edge! Our mission is to provide value packed accommodation at unbelievable prices.

We, Tom and Bec, and our two boys, Huxley and Nate, have recently bought this heritage listed Victorian mansion with attached cottages, to live in and run as a family business. Our aim is to give it quite a fresh new look of modern class that really highlights the Victorian charm and elegance yet focusing on bringing it into a new time. We know what it is like to travel and we know that no-one wan

ts to break the bank just to get a clean and cosy room to stay in. We also want to be able to add those special little touches that create a warm and valuable experience.
