Off grid tranquillity with beautiful views and no other house in sight

Dramatic sustainable house designed for his own dwelling and holiday rental by Philip Boorman who has many awards for his outstanding Architectural work and furniture designs.

Located on the escarpment in the centre of the 125 acre site. This privileged isolation has allowed the house design to be opened to the expansive surrounding valley and mountains by the extensive use of timber framed bi-fold doors and windows. Solar panels generate the power supply and roof water is collected in tanks for filtered reuse within the home.

Such a welcoming and relaxing place to stay. Our second visit and we will definitely be back. The house is stylish and comfortable, and very pet-friendly. The hosts are friendly and helpful, and the location is hard to beat - quiet, secluded and yet close to restaurants, shops, and relaxing walks.

We had a great stay at this well designed house. It was very clean, comfortable & exactly as described in the listing. It had stunning sunset views from the side of the house. No ceiling fans in the bedrooms, but did have pedestal fans available. Wifi very minimal.We’d definitely recommend this house and would stay again.
