Events & Hire

Gather at Bethel

More than a stay. A place to bring people together.

Host a birthday, celebration, retreat, workshop, family gathering or intimate event surrounded by the estate's indoor and outdoor spaces — the pool terrace, the courtside bar, sheltered lawns and the rooms that open onto them.

Every event includes accommodation for two and use of the agreed event spaces and estate facilities.

Room to set up

The lawn set for a ceremony — terrace, pergola and pool a few steps away

A softly lit lounge with candles, a skylight and massage chairs

Retreats & Workshops

Quiet enough to think in

For retreats, planning days and workshops, the estate gives a group room to spread out and somewhere to properly rest between sessions — sauna, pool, court and garden, without anyone getting in a car.

Coatesville

The Estate

Fifteen minutes from Albany, and a world away from it.

The pool in full sun, pergola and loungers along one side

The Pool

A 25-metre pool, built for swimming

Not an ornamental plunge — a proper lap pool, twenty-five metres end to end, with a diving board, ladders at both ends and a wide sun-warmed surround. Fenced, with the pergola and loungers a few steps away for when you're done.

The tennis net and court, hedged on all sides

The Court

Tennis, and somewhere to sit afterwards

A full court hedged on every side, with a covered bar and long timber table at the fence line — so a game turns easily into an afternoon.

The cedar-lined sauna with tiered benches

Sauna & Wellness

A large sauna and a room to slow down in

The sauna is generous enough for a group, and the lounge beside it is kept deliberately quiet — low light, a skylight open to the stars, somewhere to sit and let the day go.

The library — full bookshelves, a sofa and a lit candle

Gardens & Indoors

Gym, games room and library

Inside: a home gym, table tennis and a games room, and a library with deep shelves and a quiet corner to sit in. Outside: tropical planting, stone paths, still water, an outdoor oven and open lawn.
