Horizon Suites

A corner of glass, and a bath facing the valley.

The two Horizon Suites stand where the ridge turns, with glass on two sides, so the room seems to hang over the valley. The bath is carved stone, set exactly where the glass meets.

A Horizon Suite at dawn: a pale stone bath set into a frameless corner of glass above a valley full of mist, the cliffs beyond

Everything in these suites is arranged around the corner. The bed faces west for the sunset; the bath faces north-west, into the widest part of the valley; and a long oak deck runs the length of the suite with a daybed and a fire bowl at the far end.

Linen blinds drop from the ceiling when you want the room to yourself. Most guests don’t use them.

The day, from this room

  1. At dawn

    Mist fills the valley below the corner glass, often until eight. Most guests watch it from the bath.

  2. In the afternoon

    Lower the linen blinds and the room goes quiet and golden; the deck is in shade by three.

  3. After dark

    Leave the blinds open. From the bed, the stars reach all the way down to the cliffs.
