Another “must” if you are lucky enough to book with us in late Spring i.e. around the end of April. The azaleas and rhododendrons will be in full bloom . Take your time (2-3hrs), a picnic and walk all the way to the top of the gardens where you can sit amidst olive groves in meadows overlooking the lake. The house and gardens are worth a visit in any season!
