Blisshouse Carlyle

Blisshouse Carlyle’s spacious proportions and Victorian charm combine for gracious living.

Here, amongst hand painted ceilings, ornate timberwork, parquetry flooring with figurine inlays and antique French crystal chandeliers, you’ll find yourself slipping effortlessly into a slower pace.

It comes as no surprise then, to learn the house is named after Nineteenth Century poet, Thomas Carlyle, whose sentiments reflect the very essence of this gorgeous guesthouse: Here hath been dawning / Another blue Day / Think wilt thou let It / Slip useless away…

When not at the beach (just minutes’ walk from Carlyle), or in town shopping and eating, you’ll find no shortage of places in which to lounge and entertain.

Outdoors, catch cool summer breezes on the wide northern verandah as you laze in antique chairs, crafted from teak and rattan. Alternatively, set yourself up on a generously sized siesta lounge, plumped high with cushions. The lush tropical gardens surrounding the house feature some of Byron’s most established frangipani trees and one of Byron’s oldest and largest fig trees, a majestic centrepiece to the pond, lawn, sculpture and contemplation spaces which surround it.

Indoors, a vaulted leadlight and paneled ceiling are the highlights of the tranquil lounge room. While away the hours in front of the gas fireplace, cosied up with a fluffy rug and luxuriating in the depths of the four seater lounge. An atmosphere of gentle sophistication is inspired by the elegant flowing lines of French Provencial style furniture. Dim the lights to instantly convert the space into a comfortable cinema room, complete with 42” LCD flat screen, cable and hi fidelity stereo sound.

A light filled sunroom offers alternative lounging space, with comfy seating to curl up in. Here you can choose from a selection of books, magazines, games and DVDs Carlyle has on offer.

The fully equipped gourmet kitchen features handcrafted timber cabinetry and a wide island bench for easy entertaining. A BBQ is also available in the lush garden surrounds.

Dine alfresco on the rear entertaining deck, or enjoy the intimate space of the dining room, featuring soothing shades of cream and sage timber furniture with fully upholstered chairs.

Three large bedrooms each feature a Queen sized bed, draped with mosquito netting and dressed in soft, sumptuous linen. A private ensuite is located off each room. Robes provide ample storage during your stay and air conditioning provides personal comfort. Two of the rooms feature flat screen TVs for lazy nights in.

Stunning leadlight and floreal glass, created by local artisan, is a feature of every room throughout the house, Floors are also an artwork in themselves, using a mixture of bluegum, teak and kauri parquetry to striking effect.

High, airy ceilings and its north facing orientation ensure comfort all year round for guests. This is complimented by soft, fluffy towels for beach and bath, sumptuous bed linen and indulgent gifts of Dr Hauschka organic skin care, gourmet teas and coffee locally produced, award winning cookies and hand made chocolate sensations.

Another blue day at Blisshouse Caryle awaits you.
