In busy workplaces, it is easy for teams to fall into routines: quick meetings, overflowing inboxes and a steady stream of tasks that leave little room for creativity or connection. That is why our away days have become such a valuable opportunity for organisations looking to step away from the everyday and invest in the wellbeing, cohesion and motivation of their people. Set across our beautiful network of residential and day centres, each away day provides the space, inspiration and support teams need to reset and refocus.
What we offer
At the heart of our offer are flexible, fully equipped meeting spaces designed to make planning and collaboration as smooth as possible. Rooms come with free Wi Fi, interactive whiteboards and IT support, ensuring your team has all the tools they need to think clearly, share ideas and tackle important conversations. Whether you are hosting a strategic planning session, delivering specialist training or simply giving your team the chance to step out of their usual environment, our centres provide an ideal backdrop.
Activities
What truly sets our away days apart is the breadth of experiences available beyond the meeting room. Teams can choose from a wide range of activities designed to build trust, strengthen communication and create shared memories. Bushcraft sessions, environmental fieldwork, hands-on team challenges and adventure-based activities offer a chance to reconnect with nature, try something new and see colleagues in a different light. These shared experiences help groups rediscover their strengths both individually and together.
Our locations
Organisations are already using these opportunities in dynamic and creative ways. From practical training on dynamic tree safety in Epping Forest to volunteer development sessions at Nettlecombe Court to blended meeting and activity days at Rhyd-y-Creuau, every location brings its own strengths and character. Some groups come for a focused day of discussion, while others combine a workshop with a campfire or outdoor session for a more relaxed team experience. This variety is one of our greatest assets because no two centres are the same, and every group can find a setting that suits them perfectly.
Overnight packages
For teams wanting a deeper retreat experience, our residential centres provide comfortable overnight accommodation. Multi-day events allow teams to step back more completely from day-to-day pressures, helping them build stronger relationships and create the headspace needed for long term planning and reflection. While guests may share communal areas with other groups, this often contributes to the friendly, community atmosphere that makes our centres so welcoming.
Whatever format you choose, our away days are designed to leave teams feeling valued, energised and reconnected. With supportive staff, inspiring locations and flexible packages, your next away day can be a meaningful investment in your people and a memorable experience they will talk about long after they have returned to work.
