Are you worried that your holiday will ruin your exercise programme? Don’t be! With a Community Centre just 300 metres from Rosewood it is easy to stroll across for a swim in the indoor pool or have a casual gym visit. A walking/running trail through to forest starts just 100 metres from Rosewood and an early morning walk in the company of the many native birds in the region has a special magic to start the day. The golf course is just a 5 minute drive away and is open to the public. The beaches are just 7 minutes drive with surfing and windsurfing lessons available. Horse riding is popular in the region with a number of options including carriage rides for those who love horses but can’t sit astride! Scooters and bicycles can be hired in the town. Of course if all that sounds far too energetic, curl up with a book or magazine and enjoy the tranquility that is Rosewood! |
