History
Built in 1822 for the honourable Mr Caleb Soul of Soul Paterson Pharmacy fame, this fabulous residence was named after Admiral Nelson, the Earl of Bronte.
When the deeds became ours, we inherited not just a beautiful building, but a profound architectural, cultural, and historical responsibility, thanks to the dedicated efforts of its past owners. Under their stewardship, the house underwent a meticulous refurbishment, reflecting the opulence of its original inhabitants through a captivating blend of Victorian and Asian antiques.
Now, as the current owners, we embrace this rich heritage while also focusing on sustainability. Our aim is to continue the legacy of providing modern travellers with a space that harmonises tranquillity and heritage, while prioritising eco-conscious practices.
