Getting back to nature
The quality and variety of plants and flowers on display in our gardens is simply outstanding. We have expert gardeners who work hard to maintain and nurture 15 acres of grounds and they have created an inspiring environment in which to sit or stroll. Although they will not be at their best mid-conference season, Autumn and early Spring colours will be gloriously evident.
Taking exercise
If you have some energy to expend, our Leisure Centre has a heated swimming pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, fitness room, an all weather tennis court, and table tennis, table football, pool and snooker tables.
Whatever you choose you do not have to worry about extra costs - use of our leisure facilities is included in the tariff for conference guests.
