The Bend

your home away from home

The Bend Country House has a rich history of hospitality and togetherness. For many years, it was owned and lovingly managed by the Halgado family, who made it a welcoming retreat for guests seeking peace and tranquility. In 2022, the property was acquired by the Paruk family. Since its acquisition in 2022, The Bend Country House has become a cornerstone of the Paruk family, allowing them to create lasting memories and spend more quality time together. Inspired by their experiences, the family wishes to share this incredible space with others, inviting guests to enjoy it as much as they do.

The Bend Country House is more than just a retreat—it is a space for creating meaningful moments, bringing people together, and enjoying life’s simple pleasures in a serene setting. Guests are invited to experience the joy and connection that make this place so special.

The family has embarked on a continuous journey to restore and enhance the property while preserving its charm and historical character. As part of their upgrades, they have added a padel and pickleball court to expand recreational facilities for guests.

The vision for the future includes enhancing the already beautiful landscapes and gardens; creating organic vegetable gardens, and introducing new facilities for guests to enjoy. A commitment to ongoing improvements to the bedrooms and public spaces ensures that every stay is as comfortable and memorable as possible.
