A SPACE TO REPAIR & REIMAGINE.
Located within a 15 minute walk of historical Serangoon Gardens, The Rest has been our humble family home since 1979. Repaired and transformed into a restorative space for wandering souls in search of a temporary refuge, we warmly invite you to share our home and community; and be inspired to reimagine a wonder-filled journey forwards.
The house was designed to be experienced as a restful respite, where you have the option to be alone with yourself or to commune with your housemates and other guests. Pockets of spaces also lend it to small events, workshops and gatherings.

THE GATHERING SPACES
The Studio was designed for yoga and meditation. However, its open (yet private) flexible space also makes it ideal for group therapy, community circles, dance practice, and other activities where a mirrored, open space is required. Views out onto the terrace provides light as well as inspiration.
The plunge pool is surrounded by beautiful plants, offering a private space for a dip on a hot afternoon. A perfect spot to lounge with a book, soak up rays or catch up with work. It is also a great space to hold a mini aqua aerobics class.
A good rest includes good nutrition. At The Rest we have two kitchens and 4 dining spaces from which to eat what you’ve prepared. Sit by the pool, enjoy casual communal dining on the covered patio or a more formal set up in the dining room - you’re spoiled for choice.
A perfect spot for dinner parties and supper clubs, there is space for sit-down dinners for up to 60 people, on fine days; and 50 diners if they all need to be under cover due to inclement weather.
Our outdoor dining spaces also make great options for home working, classes and workshops - from cooking to art therapy, how the space can be used is only limited by your imagination!
The roof terrace is the perfect evening spot for an intimate cocktail party or a romantic aperitif. Combined with the studio, it is a perfect place for a party, small events, workshops, seminars and talks.
