We all wanted to say a massive THANK YOU, for making our days at Whitehough so much fun and so memorable. All our members had a wonderful time, and it was so lovely to see people who we thought might not be able to manage all the tasks, not only having a go but absolutely loving trying!

Sharon Walsh, CEO at TEAM RISE

Education

Whitehough is one of my favourite places to go. It’s peaceful, and I feel calm when I’m here. I really like the Leap of Faith – it’s a bit scary, but I feel proud when I do it. Being outside just helps me think clearer and feel better.

I just wanted to say a big thank you on behalf of all my colleagues at Forbes for our team building day. Everyone had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed all the activities. Thanks for all your hard work!

Thank you for such a lovely trip! From enquiring, booking and on the day the whole process was very friendly and well organised. Whitehough accommodated for our needs making the whole process trouble free. On the day everything was arranged to maximize and make the most of the day.

What an incredible place, it’s hard to believe I’d never been before. Many of us, myself included, were pushed well outside our comfort zones, and that made the day even more rewarding. We laughed, supported each other, and worked together to tackle a variety of activities, finishing off with a delicious lunch. Whitehough is the perfect setting for team building, whatever the weather. If you’re a business looking for a memorable, energising day out, make sure this is on your list. The staff were brilliant, friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience fun and safe. Kimberley Thompson, Managing Director
