You will have access to a host of on-site leisure facilities that are shared by guests of all cottages:

Swimming pool and Hamman

Take a dip in the 11m long and 5m wide indoor heated swimming pool or head to the Hamman, a traditional Turkish steam room where you can enjoy some well-deserved relaxation.

Guests will have 1 hour 45 minutes of shared pool time in the morning and a private swim time at an allocated time throughout the day for 1 hour 15 minutes. Please contact Guest Services if you'd like to find out beforehand.

The shallow end is large and flat for playing water games and deep enough for strong swimmers to ‘tumble turn’. Small children should wear appropriate float aids as well as being accompanied by an adult.

Please note: Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. We also advise adults to not swim alone but to always swim in company.

Pre-bookable spa treatments are also available in the Hamman for a little extra luxury. Please contact Guest Services to find out more.

Gardens and grounds

The six acres of beautiful gardens, created over thirty years, contain many shrubberies and borders with different things to see all year round; explore the fascinating Moorish Pavilion with overtones of the Alhambra in Grenada, the large ponds and waterfalls, the box patterns in the parterre, and ever-changing variety of blossom and flowers. On your stroll say hello to the chickens, bantams and other more exotic birds, or simply enjoy the birdsong from the amazing variety of birds resident in the grounds.

Other leisure facilities

There is an all-weather tennis court available for tennis enthusiasts bringing their own racquets, shoes and tennis balls, along with a croquet set for use on the main lawn.

Self-check-in on arrival and once you’re settled in the owners will welcome you to the property and show you around the pool facilities.
