Explore the retreat environs, the fun, green way, rolling with a Segway. The battery-powered, self-balancing, electric vehicle can be your personal transport device for exploration down the walkways of the retreat.

The rugged outdoors can be explored off-road in the most pulse-racing way with these all-terrain quad bikes, always ready to roar into action.

Amble through the genteel landscape, feel the sunshine filter through the leaves, listen to the first birdcall, be alive to the fragile beauty all around you.

For gentle cycling around the beautiful estate or for some competitive racing, excellent cycles are available for hours of pleasure and some great exercise. Safe, uninterrupted, outdoor fun.

The hotel’s superbly maintained squash courts await the enthusiast. Drive, volley or smash, this fast-paced sport is the perfect precursor to a much-needed sundowner.

Head over the courts for a leisurely or high-powered game of singles or doubles. It’s a great chance to perfect your strokes on your own terms.

The sprawling acres around the hotel have enough space for guests to up their game in cricket, football, badminton, basketball and volleyball. Great for friendly matches and for some corporate competitive spirit.

Try your hand at a grounded sport that was once a fashionable amusement, before it was edged out by tennis. Perfect your grip on the mallet and the technique of striking the plastic balls through hoops.

Family, friends or colleagues can gather over many contests of billiards, pool, snooker, carom, darts and foosball. The hours will fly amid laughter and good cheer.

Ollie’s Club is the children’s favourite haunt in the hotel. With full facilities for indoor and outdoor activities like jenga, chess, table tennis, croquet and more, the fun quotient is maximised.
