Set up to accommodate visiting artists, musos and writers, the upstairs digs at this gallery are also available to anyone with an interest in the arts. The five comfy rooms have a somewhat '60s vibe, but there's good natural light and they're decorated lovingly, with plenty of colour and art on the walls. There's a kitchen, a lounge and a sprawling backyard.
