A place apart: the property is the destination.

A black column fireplace warms the dining room, and seasonal tasting menus draw on Baltic catch and foraged forest ingredients.
How it began
Built in 2021, the retreat uses modular timber construction clad in blackened wood to leave the surrounding bedrock undisturbed.
