Cotter House
exemplifies the seven dimensions of the art of entertaining: it
offers an atmosphere of well-being and refined comfort; a decor
and "mise en scène" that is intimate yet reflects
the grand English Regency style; the rituals of fine cuisine and
quality wines; a high tech setting that reconciles design and comfort;
and a discreet, tranquil and secluded setting in a classy and cosy
central location.
It also offers
the seclusion required for 'Made to order' corporate retreats and
inspired entertaining and a very real commitment to Green practices
and sustainability.
