The lounge is also the perfect space to invite friends and family over for a special celebration.
Open every day between 10am till 4pm is our bistro restaurant serving tasty and nutritious meals for our homeowners and their friends and family, at a very reasonable price. All the food is freshly prepared and we can cater for special dietary requirements.
