The villa has six bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and they are genuinely different from one another — different floors, different outlooks, different characters. Together they sleep up to 16 with portable beds. Because groups book the whole house, the interesting question is usually not which room to choose but who should get which.

Here is how they differ, and who tends to end up where.

The Master Bedroom

The largest room in the house at around 45 square metres, with a queen bed, a walk-in shower, a hot tub, a walk-in closet and a wide seating area facing the view. It sleeps two comfortably and up to four when needed.

On a hen weekend this goes to the bride. On a family trip it goes to whoever is being celebrated, or to the grandparents. It is the room people photograph.

The High Right Room, first floor

An elevated room that lifts the view of the hills higher than anywhere else in the house. It is around 20 square metres and sleeps two, with room for two more.

This is the couples’ room. If you have one pair in the group who would appreciate waking up to the best window in the villa, put them here.

The terrace room

A spacious room with direct access to the upper terrace and a large walk-in closet. The terrace access is the thing that makes it — you can step outside with a coffee without going through the rest of the house.

Popular with early risers, and with anyone who wants a bit of separation from the main body of the group.

The Zen Room, ground floor

A low bed in a deliberately minimalist room, on the ground floor and directly beside the pool. There is very little in it, which is the point.

It suits whoever in the group actually wants to sleep, and it is the easiest room to get in and out of — worth remembering if anyone in the party has trouble with stairs.

The remaining suites

The middle rooms fill out the house and are the ones that work best for friends sharing or for children close to their parents. They are comfortable, quieter than the rooms facing the pool, and usually the last to be allocated — which makes them the ones people are most pleasantly surprised by.

How to divide six rooms among a group

A few things we have watched groups learn the hard way:

  • Give the ground floor Zen Room to anyone who will be up early or going to bed early. It is the least disturbed by people coming in from the terrace.
  • Put couples in the High Right Room and the terrace room, and friends sharing in the middle rooms.
  • If children are coming, keep them near their parents rather than near the pool.
  • Decide the allocation before you arrive. Doing it in the hallway with luggage is how holidays start badly.

What is in every room

All six bedrooms have their own character but share the essentials — proper beds, storage, an en-suite bathroom, and the same view of the hills the house was built around. Beyond the bedrooms there is a cinema room, a wine cellar, two living rooms and a makeup room, plus two further bathrooms, a changing room and an outdoor shower at the pergola. The infinity pool, the heated jacuzzi and the firepit are shared by everyone, and in practice that is where the group spends its time anyway.
