Continuing on to Richmond we pulled into the forested Preserve Sporting Club & Residences, located on 3,500 acres of parkland described by Forbes as "Arguably the Finest Sporting Club in America", with an endless array of adventures in its outdoor oasis. There is a choke of activities to meet varied interests curated across all four seasons of the year where staff customise one-of-a-kind experiences, including children's activities with its picturesque Hobbit Houses creating fairytale adventures and unforgettable moments filled with smiles and laughter.
Guests can take it slow with carriage rides, gourmet dining and treatments at the OH! Spa, to luxe tent camp pairings of cigars with scotch, then break into a sweat with clay shooting. Also on offer are fly fishing, golf, upland hunting, equestrian, cross country skiing, mountain biking, and shooting in the longest indoor range in the country to name just a few. My favourite activity was the Bentley Bentayga Off-Road Driving Experience with expert coaching from the Bentley driving team, guiding me on how to manoeuvre challenging ascent and descent gradients on a specially designed experiential course.
On this ultimate outdoor enthusiast driving ape-Hence I applied newly learned driving skills on 200-foot eleva-tion changes, hairpin turns, and challenging terrain over 2 miles set within The Preserve's magnificent landscapes, bringing to a thrilling finale this most memorable of trips to Rhode Island the gent of New England!
