The story of Villa Rustica:
Visiting Villa Rustica is like stepping back in time.
Situated on 5 acres in the rural hinterland of Byron Bay, Villa Rustica was lovingly built by Australian artist Ken Johnson.
Blending a mix of architectural styles - from a Moroccan enclosed courtyard to grand Florentine arches - Villa Rustica is an eclectic property that imbues timeless elegance.

Our story:
Since taking over the property in early 2015, we have been sympathetically restoring Villa Rustica.
As artists working in separate studios on the property, Villa Rustica is primarily a private residence. We are excited, however, to offer accommodation so you may also enjoy the exotic surrounds.
Our plans include creating spaces where we can hold artist retreats, boutique weddings and special functions.
We look forward to welcoming you,
Greg Furney and Jane Denison
