The Modena – named after the historic north Italian city. Lonely Planet eulogise over this beautiful part of Italy - proffering “if Italy were a meal, Modena would be the main course”. Modena is justifiably proud to be the home of the Ferrari museum. Ferrari’s core values of ‘technological advancement, team spirit and client focus’, mirror our own attention to detail, innovation and customer satisfaction as manifest in this masterpiece of a lodge.
As soon as you step over the threshold the Modena draws you in. Just like Enzo Ferrari’s cars; the magnificent Modenas beautifully crafted sharp edges and clean lines on the exterior are reflected internally - not only in the layout but also in the choice of finishes. This trendy home is packed with stylish features and eye-catching detail at every turn. Almost too many features to mention!
The Modena is truly contemporary in its design and a marvellous example of what can be achieved and the advancements possible in lodge design. Like the City of Modena famed for its architectural buildings; the Modena draws on architectural principles to captivate, with its split roof line and inverted dormers creating grand vaulted spaces supported by exposed hand finished timber beams.
Upon entering you are greeted by a beautifully custom-crafted vaulted height library bookcase set below a weathered ridge beam. Oblique vertical cedar pillars set within a slate shingle bed (a nod to our Welsh heritage) separate the entry-way and lounge.
A large corner sofa complemented by a rather special swivel accent chair takes pride of place in the lounge, alongside a stunning stone effect monolithic chimney breast with a complete central cut-away giving the effect of floating stone slab becomes the focal point in the lounge.
The kitchen is a masterpiece of its own; stunning simplicity and practicality. A central island is flanked by trendy wooden legged barstools. Equipped with stone acrylic work surfaces, glass sink, induction hob, integrated double oven, wine cooler, microwave, fridge and freezer and dishwasher – all cleverly hidden away to create a clean unobstructed design.
The bedrooms speak true luxury and comfort. Full height feature headboards over pocket sprung mattresses are set between split wood panelled alcoves with feature bedside pendant lights.
Underfloor heating below stone-grey floor tiles helps make the bathroom and en suite, spaces to enjoy. The vanity units with full width backlit mirrors and hanging pendant lights either side of the his and hers sink wouldn’t be amiss in a 5-star hotel suite. Rainfall showers and feature alcoves set the bathrooms off with an extra touch of that something truly special.
