an afternoon on the presidential lawns
Experiences
Lawn Games
Croquet and boules on manicured lawns with the Luangwa Valley rolling away below — a nod to Chichele's presidential heritage.
Chichele was built in 1972 to host a president, and its lawns still carry that air of unhurried occasion. Afternoons here are for croquet, boules and long shadows, with tea or a gin and tonic never far away.
It is the gentlest experience on the hill — and one of the best ways to spend the quiet hours between a morning drive and the evening's game viewing.
