Lune's origins began as a country house recovered from the fog of history. Built in 1860, for the past 160 years its grand rooms have served as both a private residence and a place for lavish entertaining alike; to enter these grounds today is to walk among past dignitaries and bon vivants. Today, we carry forward the tradition of gathering at Lune in honour of the moments and memories left behind and to create our own stories. The property is designed to host intimate, private gatherings.

THE SPACE

8 Phases Of The Moon

PHASE 01

The Garden

Outside our doors is a place of untamed natural beauty, of wildflowers and grassy fields left mostly untouched. Beginning late spring until early fall, gather from the avenue to our stone paths, pond and pergola – all framed by ancient canopied evergreens and maples. Suitable for gatherings of up to 100 guests.

PHASE 02

The Fountain

The avenue that leads to Lune is intersected only by our historic show-stopping fountain. The fountain runs from spring to late fall and, like the house, is modeled in classic Italianate style. Anchoring the entrance to Lune, it's an enchanting place to gather and revel among the gardens and towering pines. Suitable for gatherings of up to 60 seated guests.

PHASE 03

The Light Room

The light side of the moon is our airier half where two grand salons are bridged by a pair of sweeping arches. During the daytime, natural light abounds. At dusk, shadows dance across milky, frescoed walls set aglow by custom-designed sconces and twin fireplaces framed by original Italian marble dating back to 1860. Suitable for gatherings of up to 40 seated guests.

PHASE 04

The Dark Room

With only half of the moon visible from Earth, the dark side of Lune envelopes guests within its inky, frescoed walls. A fireplace with black marble mined in Italy during the late 19th century, custom-designed sconces and a larger-than-life gilded mirror cast dynamic shadows as day turns to night. Suitable for gatherings of up to 28 seated guests.

PHASE 05

The Arc

Between our light side and our dark side – and in the centre of it all – a Davide Groppi Moon Pendant floats above our intimate hallway. Hushed conversations across candlelit tables feel especially spellbinding beneath our hand-sculpted, barreled ceiling that’s illuminated from within. Suitable for gatherings of up to 20 seated guests.

PHASE 06

The Table

Bathed in natural light from rows of French windows that overlook our gardens, our dining room houses a custom sculpted plaster table and arced light. In the adjacent kitchen, our brass island and onyx backsplash can be seen, its hand-finished edge artfully mirroring the moon’s rocky terrain. Suitable for gatherings of up to 18 seated guests.

The Garden Terrace

In view from the dining room and kitchen is our Garden Terrace. Inspired by our trips to Spain and Italy, the sun-baked stone patio accented with elegant iron and white lounge furnishings offers a quiet, Mediterranean-like escape. Two hand-sculpted stucco walls with a picture window stand among the soft ivory pea gravel, adding privacy to every intimate gathering under the same Tuscan sun. Suitable for gatherings of up to 70 seated guests.
