Special requirements? No problem! At no extra cost, we provide personal consultations to allow our clients to customize a retreat package. You may choose from a variety of modern, well equipped accommodations, comfortable meeting rooms and exceptional meals. After your meetings or activities, your guests will have the opportunity to take a carefree stroll through the gardens, hike the old growth forest trails or wander along the secluded beaches. By working with you, we will offer the right services and activities to guarantee a successful event.

 

Meeting Rooms

The Great Hall, the original drawing-room of our century-old manor house, is an ideal meeting room for small groups of up to twelve participants. It is a room with exceptional atmosphere owed to its careful restoration, lofty 12 meter open-beam ceiling, spacious balconies, and views of the ocean from the beautiful leaded-glass windows. Relax by a crackling fire and enjoy delicious, wholesome snacks as you cover the items on your agenda.

If your group includes twenty to thirty participants, the recently constructed Pavilion will exceed expectations. With ample space and a distinctly west-coast atmosphere, this facility is an ideal setting for an unforgettable retreat as it features a timber frame construction, complete with 3 banks of French doors, a natural slate floor, and sweeping ocean views. The large open floor space with dimensions of 12 meters by 20 meters is suitable for a variety of activities including yoga instruction as well as workshops for artists, musicians or quilters.

 

Culinary

Overbury is known for providing its guests with exceptional meals that are both delicious and healthy.  Fresh, local produce, seafood and meats are creatively prepared to provide the best tasting meals possible. Seasonal fruits and vegetables from our own garden are featured when they are available.
