Corporate Retreats Testimonial - Draftline

Break away from functional hotels for environments that bring out the best in everyone. Fun, creative and productive corporate offsites, corporate retreats and away days by Elsewhere.

“Darren and his team organised our agency day out and overnight for 70 or so staff at The Blazing Donkey. It was a big undertaking for us as it was a big group of people to co-ordinate, entertain, feed and accommodate but we were so well looked after that we had very little to co-ordinate ourselves.

The evening BBQ, even though we were such a big group, was great and there were lots of delicious and varied options. The main highlight was Darren and his staff’s energy, fun and friendly nature though they welcomed us and engaged really well with the team.

We came for a bit of teambuilding, to engage and have fun and we went away thoroughly refreshed after a great couple of days away.

The entire team was blown away, and I’ve already heard from colleagues saying it was one of the best team events we’ve ever had. It truly exceeded all expectations!”
