There is also an excellent Kidside Club to keep the little ones entertained. Catering to 4- to 18-year-olds, its plethora of activities – from kids pool parties to archery tournaments – keeps all juniors busy and content.

Adults love the Club’s nightlife: babysitting can be arranged. But there is also plenty of room to escape for those who want some peace and quiet.

The hotel even publishes a daily gazette, The Hillside Daily, bringing news of all the daily activities. A typical itinerary for the day might look like this:
