Villa Ronai, is the perfect party venue for such an event as the early owners of the fabulous Stony Hill estate, not only created some fantastic gardens to enhance the grounds, but Mrs. Ronai, being an artist of sorts, had life-sized marble and plaster replicas of a number of exotic animals erected and strategically placed in the gardens to complete the allure and mysticism that envelops the property.
