To the side, a series of patios, decked terraces and raised borders provide plenty of opportunity for rest and relaxation and family dining to a patio sheltered within bamboo and evergreen screens. Off the patio, a raised platform houses a hot tub and to one side a limestone built wood fired pizza oven.
