This impressive operation comprises six buildings, with all kinds of accommodation configurations: private motel-style doubles, double bedrooms off a communal kitchen, single-level suites and two-storey apartments. All are classy, with leather couches, mod bathrooms, kitchens, nice linen and tastefully muted colour schemes. Raid the shared veggie garden for cabbages, spinach and parsley. Check in at Emily's Bistro.
