The stay

Villas come with fireplaces, deep baths and private outlooks; the shared magic is the glasshouse pool glowing at night and gardens grown for the kitchen. Phones lose relevance somewhere on the driveway.

Around Berry

Berry’s famous main street — doughnut van included — is ten minutes downhill, Two Figs’ river-view cellar door is close, and Seven Mile Beach and Kangaroo Valley bracket the weekend.
