We visited last summer term and can honestly say that we had a fantastic time! From the variety of activities, to the skillful, kind, caring and energetic staff who coordinated the activities, it was just wonderful. The grounds are beautiful and set in the most incredible setting. A well-equipped equipment Centre and games room kept us all secure and active.

We’ve noticed improvements in focus and attention in school after our students spend a day at Whitehough. The activities give them a chance to relax, but also push themselves in a way that feels safe and supported. It’s been especially encouraging to hear the students cheering each other on – the team spirit and social interaction really bring something out in them

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!

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

There was something really powerful about holding a space for women in such a natural, calming environment. The setting, the sunshine, and the way everyone showed up so openly, everything just flowed. It was beautiful to see the difference in energy from start to finish
