The two hundred thousand sq metres of parkland/fenced garden is a paradise for children, and with its 700 olive trees, has plenty of places for sleeping in the shade, picknicking, BBQ'ing, hide and seek and of course Sunbathing. The private, gated swimming pool with Roman Steps is a real luxury, and this area is lit at night for those nocturnal swims…Here there is also a hot tub.
