Coupled with warm hospitality and 4½ star elegance, Cypress Hill awaits you for a memorable getaway.

Property Description:
Beyond the massive cypress hedge is a Mediterranean-style villa of exceptional style and proportions. Set on 50 acres and surrounded by dramatic rolling hills, the unfolding views from the villa are quite breathtaking. And in the villa's immediate surroundings the gardens now include a rose garden, wisteria walk, orchard, vegetable patch and beds full of Mediterranean and Australian plants.

The building captures a wonderful European ambience with superb, detailed architecture and interior design. Italian roof tiles, the colonnade of the terrace and the exterior colouring create a very authentic picture. On the inside there is a wealth of beautiful detail; paint stencilling, solid wood panelled doors, imported French door handles and floor tiles from Italy. Rustic wrought iron bedheads and terrace furniture complement the Mediterranean style as do the terracotta colours that predominate throughout.

The guest suites each have French doors to the terrace. All have luxury ensuites, while the largest of the suites has a king size bed and an ensuite with a spa bath that has a private outlook to a plant filled fernery.

General use guest areas include a comfortable lounge with a fireplace, an indoor courtyard and, of course, the terrace and garden. Breakfast is served in the courtyard or on the terrace according to the weather.
