We believe that the best holidays involve not just new places but also new experiences. We therefore work with a number of carefully selected local experts to offer our guests the very best of the area. The following activities are exclusive to Bambou guests and are guaranteed to make your stay truly unique.
Bespoke Holiday Planning Service
The wealth of choice in this area can be overwhelming, so for those who would like a little guidance, we offer a bespoke itinerary planning service that has proved extremely popular. Benefit from our insider knowledge and have us plan some days out for you or your entire stay as you wish! Everything is arranged in close consultation with you and tailored to your party's requirements. We can recommend and organise a number of fabulous experiences as well as some great restaurants to plan your day around! We can even book you a driver if you wish, so you don't have to worry about navigating, parking, or holding back on the local wine! And for families, we can also suggest activities that will particularly appeal to children.
