Tennis Lessons

Set in two acres of garden at the exclusive Rancho Mirage community, this sprawling villa is a real showstopper. Sports fans will feel right at home – not only is there a professional-size tennis court, there's also an eight hole putting green in the back yard and a home gym for morning workouts. Those who just want to relax will also appreciate this luxurious home, with two fire pits, endless sun loungers, and an entire outdoor living room. Take a dip in the lit-up swimming pool and hot tub as night falls, before drying off and settling down to watch a blockbuster in the cinema room, complete with a popcorn maker and pull-down screen. Every single bedroom is luxurious, but whoever bags the master will be luckiest of all, with a fireplace and en suite jacuzzi tub to enjoy in perfect peace. The gourmet kitchen and barbecue will please any budding chefs, but if cooking's not your thing then all the amenities of Rancho Mirage are at your disposal and it's a short drive to downtown Palm Springs.
