“We had a company offsite at Hill House and it was excellent.
Here are some of my special mentions of our time with the Elsewhere team:
1. Before the offsite they had one single point of contact who helped with all aspects of planning. Tara was the manager assigned to us and she was amazing. Super responsive (even if I sent 3 different emails with different questions she would respond to all with the same enthusiasm). We were in touch via email and WhatsApp until we arrived. This meant that everything we planned went off without a hitch as there was only point of contact.
2. The house itself is really beautiful - located in lovely green surroundings with plenty for the team to do both indoors & outdoors. From tennis to karaoke machines, we were covered. There's also a lot of common "hang out" spaces so people didn't have to retreat to their rooms if there was nothing going on if they didn't want to. The team also planned a "murder mystery" for us that the team really enjoyed.
3. The catering staff have to be my favourite part - they were SO kind. Even when our "make your own pizza night" got ruined from the rain they didn't grumble once and found ways to make it work. They are also the only people in my experience so far who gave equal importance to those who have dietary requirements to those who don't, with clear labels & plenty of options. The food also was delicious and plentiful.
4. The transport was also super smooth - no waiting time at the train station and we were dropped off right on time to make our train back.
All in all great offsite experience for the team - and a godsend for the organisers like me!”
