A feast for the senses

We've enjoyed over 40 girl's weekends away & our stay at Aurum House definitely wins hands-down for the accommodation. I think we decide on 'eclectic bohemian' to describe the hosts unique talent for design & decoration...after 3 days we still hadn't taken it all in! The magnificent garden was also perfect for lolling around...& we could not fault this place (I have a feeling we may be back!)

Wow wow wow. This was the most amazing stay with family and friends onthe eve of our daughter’s wedding. Everything about Aurum House made the most memorable occasion..the rooms, the decor, the flowers, the comfort, the superior linen and towels, the goods and supplies left for us to consume, the garden, the whole atmosphere. The guests were enthralled and enchanted. The kids were thoroughly entertained, we hardly saw them ! The photos of the bride in and arounf the property are magnificent. Some of us stayed on post wedding day and we could really relax in style. Thank you Di..you helped make our entire weekend the best ever.
