There will be some delicious summer-inspired foods on offer from market stalls, and the rotisserie kitchen will be cooking up succulent meats using a state-of-the-art Rotisol. Relax on the veranda or the rolling green lawns as you tuck into a delectable lunch. Enjoy live music from local performers as you take in the magnificent views of the valley.
