The Apartment's setting is just sensational – hidden in a delightful Fremantle garden, in one of that city's historic homes. Here, host Jane Ratten has created one of the most beautifully appointed retreats for couples that we have seen, a place where contemporary style and architectural heritage have been blended with sublime skill.

The first thing you notice is the sun-drenched deck with its dappled views through the trees to the old port of Fremantle below. Open the doors to The Apartment and you unite the interior with its generous outdoor area, drawing in the garden. Inside, The Apartment spreads through a lounge and dining area, a kitchen, and a separate bedroom with ensuite. Whitewashed limestone walls give a rustic backdrop to the bold artwork and enhance the uncluttered feel created by clean, crisp lines. Fine linens and fabrics in soothing colours have been combined to make a chic space that is ideal for those seeking  something individual.

The attention to detail goes all the way to the breakfast provisions, which include homemade jams. Venture out to explore Fremantle and its many restaurants and galleries before returning to this Monument Hill hideaway to relax in
Style.
