What can we do there?
Aside from the official KP 40 activities that will be organised from the Thursday 17th June to the Monday 21st June, there will be plenty to do (aside from eat, relax and enjoy the sunshine).

The beautiful grounds afford great privacy. Immediately in front of the castle features a magnificent and ancient sycamore tree which provides perfect shade for the terraced outdoor dining area with stone barbeque. The adjacent 5 x 11m heated swimming pool has beautiful views over the valley. The extensive pool terrace has sun loungers for your relaxation
