Read a book chosen from the extensive library snuggled into soft leather couches or enjoy a fine wine next to a roaring fire whilst casting a lazy eye over the picturesque Tallebudgera Valley.
Bauhinia Cottage is a romantic getaway with not one but two cottages set on 26 acres of rolling valley greenery.
Choose a bottle from the cellar, relax by the pool or enjoy a game of snooker in the bar. Take a walk down to the creek and picnic in the stone and timber rotunda. Discover waterfalls and rock pools and a myriad of wildlife.
Recipient of Best Weekend Retreat on the Gold Coast Bauhinia Cottage was designed as a weekend away or bed and breakfast and is just 20 minutes from the beach. The main house is elevated and when you throw open the bi-fold doors the balcony feels like it is floating amongst the trees.
The three suites each have their own distinct, rustic character.
The Wentworth Suite
A touch of Olde England!
With panelled walls and classic Shand Kydd wallpaper, heavy drapes and third generation antiques, this cosy suite will transport you back in time. The double spa is complimented by classic marble trim and English style telephone taps and shower rose. Laze in the four poster canopy bed in front of the cosy log fire, or open the twin french doors onto your private section of the veranda.
The Winton Suite
Experience rustic Australiana!
With a bush bed hand made with timber from the property and a muslin canopy net this suite is the closest you can get to sleeping in a timber slab hut – with all the luxuries!
Classic Aussie curios and artefacts line the walls and the view out over the cliffs is a delight to wake up to – that is if you can resist the urge to stoke the log fire and crawl back (up!) into the bed!
Antique newspapers adorn the walls in the ensuite and the spa bath has old double windows that open to a peaceful outlook over the horse paddocks.
The Adelaide Room
This beautiful ‘country’ style room is an eclectic mix of styles. Victorian, provincial, with a dash of heirloom lace. The ensuite has a double spa bath and a separate shower
And then the caretaker’s cottage – on top of a grassy hill, just a short, shaded stroll away with the same natural textures and tones. Relocated from Brisbane this olde worlde cottage has an amazing pioneering Queensland feel.
The property is suited for horses with a grass equestrian ring and large sheds for your machinery, dams plus a stone rotunda with fireplace down by the creek.
