The historic building is a grand old lady of Albany and an icon of the town. Once a vice regal residence of state governors, you will enjoy the luxury, discretion and romance of a person with equal stature to royalty. With features of your stay including fully cooked breakfast, large rooms with heritage furnishings, verandahs with stunning views, billiard room, library, music room with vertical grand piano, and much more - you won’t want to leave.
The gardens have undergone extensive landscaping which enhances the magnificent views from all angles of the property. The gardens feature many local natives as well as a beautiful blend of exotics.

The Par Terre garden offers a cottage feel with the house and Princess Royal Harbour as its spectacular backdrop while the granite water feature offers hidden secrets. Although still a young garden, this is already the perfect location for that relaxing afternoon with a good book or for a leisurely stroll.
