You can make use of the spacious lawns for some fun outdoor games like football or frisbee. After working up a sweat, take a refreshing dip in the cool azure water of the pool. There are also some fun indoor games to try, or you can even learn some traditional games that have been long forgotten in cities. 

During your day out, you’ll be treated to some authentic local cuisines that have been prepared using the freshest of ingredients, most of which have been sourced from the resort's own farm which is situated close by. Each dish is prepared using recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation, and it represents the traditional and authentic flavours of the region. You can also tour the nearby farm and interact with the farmers to maybe learn something new.
