Spring is in the air,
and Clarendon is all a buzz..

Hi Friends,

What an amazing few months we have all had. Clarendon has been buzzing with new and exciting developments.

Welcome to the newest investors to the retreat, Marty and his company GenX4! Last month Marty settled on the Summer House and Sanctuary. Congratulations on the purchase and a big welcome from the Clarendon Team. Guests, don't panic, you can still book these cottages as normal.

Waterlily Chalet
has had a fabulous facelift with new exteior painting, landscaping and furniture. Graham and Miriam are transforming their cottage beautifully and the guests are enjoying the new comforts.

The new Hidaway is taking shape with Walter and his building crew hard at work. Owners, Greg and Gloria have designed this cottage with 2 master ensuite bedrooms, specific for 2 couples holidaying away together. As pet lovers themselves, they have also created the cottage to be dog friendly. The Hideaway is estimated to be open early 2007.
