Driving up to the property, you’re greeted with what looks like a small castle with turrets.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
The property anchors The Pinehills Village Green, ten minutes from historic Plymouth and bordering the fairways of Pinehills Golf Club.
The rooms
Every room has a fireplace and a deep soaking tub, looking out on the gardens or the neighboring golf greens.
The baths
A rock waterfall feeds the fifteen-person outdoor whirlpool, and cushioned loungers ring a boulder foot bath beneath a painted dome.
The spa
Private fireplaces warm the twenty treatment rooms, and guests rest beside a stone hearth in the glass solarium.
The studio and gym
Daily yoga and barre classes run in the wood-floored studio, and the gym has Peloton bikes and Pilates apparatus.
The Garden Bar
Guests gather at the outdoor bar for wood-fired plates and cocktails beneath shade sails and evening string lights.
Restaurant
The Bistro & Wine Bar
French bistro plates and New England seafood are served beneath timber beams or out on the covered pond deck.
At the table
Diners linger over breakfast and Sunday jazz brunch along the curved veranda, looking toward the wooden footbridge.
How it began
Gary and Linda Dower modeled the grounds on Claude Monet's Giverny home, complete with water lily ponds and a wooden footbridge.
