Business Away Days
Escape the office and reconnect with your team with Wonderful Escapes at Wern-y-Cwm Farm,
the perfect setting for a Business Away Day that blends productivity with relaxation.
Whether you're looking to inspire creativity, strengthen team bonding, or simply enjoy a change of pace, our farm offers a refreshing and engaging environment.
Leave the office behind or bring your home and hybrid working teams together. This is an opportunity to step outside your usual environment and engage in activities designed to foster collaboration, creativity, and connection. The benefits for your business are numerous, including:
Boosts Morale – Employees return to work feeling valued and energized
Encourages Creativity – An inspiring and creative venue like Wern-y-Cwm sparks innovation and fresh thinking
Strengthens Team Bonds – Improves collaboration and communication; your teams may make friends with their colleagues and form closer ties
Provides Perspective – Stepping away from the day to day job allows teams to focus on long-term goals without daily distractions
A successful business away day is engaging, enjoyable, and productive.
We will work your business to create the best agenda for your company to make the most of their time outside of the office. You are welcome to be fully self-sufficient and dry hire the premises, or work with us and consider:
Team-Building Activities – These can range from problem-solving exercises to outdoor adventures that encourage teamwork
Workshops & Strategy Sessions – Guided discussions and brainstorming sessions designed to spark new ideas
Relaxation & Wellness – Mindfulness sessions, nature or foraging walks, spa treatments or a gong bath to re-balance and restore
Social Gatherings – Bonding moments such as cooking a shared meal, fire-pit chats or casual, fun networking with party games
Guest Speakers & Insights – Inspirational talks or skill-building sessions or business success stories led by industry experts
Reflection & Future Planning – A chance to set new goals and align on company objectives in a relaxed, creative setting
A two day, one night business bonding retreat/trip is a great way to start the new financial year or as an end of year Christmas celebration and team meeting. Our in-house catering uses home-grown or locally sourced produce where possible, delivering delicious meals throughout your stay. You may wish to arrive to fresh coffee and our deliciously squidgy home apple cake, using our farm apples, ground almonds, local honey and lots of butter.
A buffet or picnic lunch is the option for a relaxed vibe, permitting your team to chat amongst themselves, bonding over the morning activities and making new friends and exploring the grounds with their numerous seating areas.
Consider a more formal three course evening banquet in The Great Barn, celebrating the successful day with your co-workers and enjoying the chance to dress up.
After a good sleeps in our unique bedrooms, start day two with a breakfast spread in the farmhouse kitchen and the smell of freshly baked croissants waking your team up for another productive day on the farm!
Guest Reviews
Our team had a truly amazing time at Wonderful Escapes during the last week of August.
The location was beautiful - with amazing views over the Welsh hills.
Each of the cottages were so thoughtfully and carefully designed and the spacious meeting areas meant we could enjoy activities, meals and downtime in all sorts of different places.
The outdoor space was equally as impressive, with lots of space to enjoy team sessions outside. The cold water pool, hot tub and sauna were particular favourites!
The team at Wonderful Escapes were incredibly helpful, both before and throughout our stay. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. They helped us with every question we had, no matter how small and we were made to feel welcomed and appreciated.
It was the perfect setting for our team to connect, collaborate, and recharge and we highly recommend Wonderful Escapes for any groups looking for a unique retreat experience!
