A different setting for professional development, strategic planning and team events, designed to bring people together and focus on what matters most.
The Halcyon Club offers organisations the opportunity to bring project teams together in a private Lake District setting designed for focused discussion, learning and meaningful collaboration. It is particularly well suited to project mobilisation, collaborative kick-offs, leadership development and the establishment of shared ways of working.
For teams working under NEC4, these sessions can help translate the spirit of mutual trust and co-operation into practical commitments: how information will be shared, how concerns will be raised, how differences will be handled and how decisions will be made.
With exclusive access to accommodation, meeting spaces, breakout areas and wellbeing facilities, groups have the freedom to create experiences tailored to their own objectives. Whether you’re planning a residential training programme, strategy session, team development event or corporate retreat, everything takes place in one connected environment, away from the distractions of everyday working life.
CORPORATE RETREATS
Planning a leadership retreat, strategy offsite or professional development event? With exclusive access to The Halcyon Club, you can create a fully tailored experience built around the needs of your team, organisation or event..
From project kick-offs, workshops and training sessions to strategic planning and team development, our spaces provide the flexibility to support structured programmes and informal discussion within a unique Lake District setting.
WHY ENVIRONMENT MATTERS
Founded by Dominic and Kerry Doig, The Halcyon Club was created around a simple belief: that people think, learn and work more effectively when given the right environment. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience running a successful chartered surveying practice, they recognised the value of stepping away from everyday pressures to create time for focused thinking, meaningful discussion and new ideas.
Today, The Halcyon Club combines professional development, learning, wellbeing and exceptional surroundings to create experiences that support both individuals and teams.
TAILORED PACKAGES FOR YOUR TEAM
Every organisation is different, which is why we work closely with clients to shape experiences around their objectives. Whether you are planning a leadership retreat, strategy session, residential training programme, project mobilisation or team development event, we can help create a programme that combines technical learning, facilitated discussion, team insight, wellbeing and time spent outdoors.
Where appropriate, DiSC and Lencioni-informed sessions can help participants understand different behavioural styles, surface potential barriers and build the trust, clarity and accountability needed to work effectively together.
Guests can also choose from a range of activities, including yoga, hiking, paddleboarding, wild swimming and more, creating opportunities to strengthen relationships, share experiences and step away from the day-to-day routine.
It is the nicest venue I have given training, or run a workshop at, over the 25 years I have been a consultant.
