A Glorious Golf Escape

Perched along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, Elysium provides an indulgent mixture of seclusion, serenity and luxury, nestled within the magnificent surroundings of Cyprusian flora and fauna. Sure to grab the attention of many golf enthusiasts, Elysium has a fantastic Golf Package this year, for any golf-loving Dads to share with a child or partner this Father’s Day. Offered in three, five and seven night packages, each one includes accommodation for two in a Deluxe Bedroom with inland views, buffet breakfasts and dinners (not including drinks) and green fees, complete with round trip transfers to Cyprus' 18-hole, championship-level golf courses.

Whichever length of stay you choose, you have access to Ela Golf Club and Minthis Golf Club with one green fee each. If you stay for five or seven nights, you’ll also get a green fee for Aphrodite Hills Golf Club, and the seven night stay includes a green fee for the remaining golf club on the island, Secret Valley. So if you have a golf-loving father or one that’s a fledgling enthusiast, tell him to dust off his golf shoes and be prepared to not lift a finger (except for his legendary swing!) as he is looked after by Elysium and their brilliant team, surrounded by stunning Cyprusian scenery, under the glorious Mediterranean sun. Did we forget to mention that its name is derived from Greek Mythology to mean “blissful place”? Pure bliss is what you will experience at this exceptional retreat!

Father's Day Cocktail Dinner

Nestled in amongst spectacular lavender fields, stunning gardens and gigantic cottonwood trees, Los Poblanos supplies each and every guest with an intoxicating combination of comfort, nature and beauty, to rejuvenate all your senses. A hidden historic gem of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Los Poblanos was designed by the “Father of Santa Fe Style”, John Gaw Meem and has developed a farm-to-fork supply chain of ingredients, so you can indulge in beautifully prepared fresh seasonal produce all year round. If your Dad’s a foodie, a cocktail connoisseur or simply a seeker of new experiences, why not treat him to a spectacular six-course tasting menu, that is paired with an array of creative cocktails? Exclusively for Father’s Day, the menu and cocktails have been developed by the incredibly talented team at Bar Campo, to tantalise your taste buds and leave you wanting more.

Using their unique farm-to-bar supply chain, delicious syrups, infusions and elixirs are made in-house from seasonal ingredients fresh from the Los Poblanos farm. To celebrate the first day of summer, Executive Chef Jonathan Perno has constructed a stunning menu around the flavours of the cocktails, perfectly suited to ring in the new season. Live music from the Julian Dossett Quartet will complete the atmosphere of your evening, as you and your father enjoy the stunning end of one of the year’s longest days. If you would like to pamper your father even more, save him having to make the journey home, with Los Poblanos’ offer of 20% off their best room rate for those enjoying Bar Campo’s marvellous dinner. Located across the farm, only a short stroll’s distance from the restaurant, be sure to have your dinner reservation number handy when you book a room with the reservations team, at this wonderful destination.

Provence by Bicycle

If you and your father are a little more on the adventurous side, why not take a cycling holiday together through the stunning regions of Provence, the picture-perfect countryside of the South of France? Completely organised by the wonderful team at La Baye Des Anges, the magnificent surrounding countryside practically begs you to take flight on a bike and explore the inner regions on the Mont Ventoux trail. Once a working farm, this charming Provencal retreat is now a rustic inn that will envelop you in serenity upon your return from a day’s cycling, with its modern comforts, beautiful pool and astonishing vistas.

Time moves slower here, so there’s no better way to indulge in an adventurous cycling holiday than on the Mont Ventoux cycling challenge. Composed of breathtaking views and multicoloured fields of sunflowers and lavender, take advantage of the stunning scenery and take a pause to snap a couple of wonderful photos together with your Dad. Beware that the hilly and windy nature of some of Mont Ventoux’s trails may make the cycle a little tougher, but know that the views are more than worth it!

After a long day of cycling, relax and recharge those sore muscles as La Baye Des Anges supplies an optional (but let’s face it, who would say no?) relaxing massage upon your return, provided by the healing hands of an ex Tour de France masseuse! A perfectly chilled glass of champagne will also await your return, so you can have the best of both worlds and end your French cycling adventure more luxurious than you thought possible.
