The extravagant tropical villa you always promised to treat yourself to - one day (sleeps 8) Claughton – built by renowned Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa – is so exclusive that even the locals don’t know about it. The house is white on white – walls to ceiling, modern and minimalist in style with a blend of contemporary and colonial furniture, terrazzo floors and views down to the ocean from your bed. It's set on five acres of landscaped gardens which lead down to a swimming pool, where guests while away the hours, tanning and dreaming. Built on an incline, the vistas over two sandy, crescent bays are magnificent. The four-bedroomed house is actually a private residence and you can feel that – it is simply let out to paying guests when the owner is not in situ. The outdoor area features a long, large table for dining, as well as lots of nooks and crannies for disappearing into – window seats and armchairs set away from prying eyes. Old-style parties - with fine champagne and music under swaying palms – are alive and well at Claughton. read more and book at i-escape
