A WINDOW ON THE FUTURE
THROUGH WINDOWS
OF THE PAST

   The site of the Old Royal has been used for both residential and passing trade purposes since the late 1800s.  The original timber building burnt down in about 1907.  The new brick Royal Hotel was built in 1912 as its replacement.  In 1942 it closed as a hotel and has since been many things, savoury and unsavoury, before emerging in its present state as   the grand yet homely  Old Royal, Guesthouse and Gardens.

The perfect venue for:

A  Romantic  Rural  Retreat (Go to the Sleeping page on menu).

A  Group  Destination  (Go to the Sleeping page on menu).

A  Small  Group  Teaching  Centre (Go to the Sleeping page on menu).

An  Introductory  Course  to  Practical  Permaculture (Go to the Permaculture page on the menu).   

 Sara and Nic (your hosts) are aiming to provide a restful, healthy, and instructive stay for people who are interested in our environment and reducing our impact on it.  We see the inclusion of  the bookshop, permaculture, and the in-house design service as integral to our aims
