For the semi-energetic there are lawn games of croquet and petanque, or many shaded areas where you can sit, relax, write and read... or you can splash in the pool in the late afternoon sun and take in the views across farmland, then enjoy wine and cheese on the front lawn amongst the roses, shrubbery and birdsong.
