WHAT WILL WE BE DOING ?
During the day the choice is down to you ! You could visit one of the many attractions in the area : enjoy the paintings in the many art galleries, reminisce about the music of your youth, there will no doubt be both long & short walks up hills & along the coast, indulge yourself with a bit of retail therapy, visit some of the local industrial archaeological attractions, watch some birds (feathered) or just relax around the pool or in the hotel’s beauty salonAs always, the evenings will be the social focus of the weekend. The evenings will be based in our own room.
The following are the highlights of what is planned :
