We will go ahead with the agreed programme if there is rain on the day(s), as long as it is safe to do so. If your group has booked the bush boardroom for a session, we will make a call no later than 2 hours before this session whether to move it into the covered (open-faced) events centre in the Southern Enclosure.
Bush boardroom
The bush boardroom is one of a kind, in such that it is unplugged. There is no access to power, WiFi and reception is patchy at best. There is a bio-toilet a short 100metres from the site. We can comfortably seat 10 people around the table, possibly up to 12. We can provide an easel with paper and pens for recording your session. Should you require notepads and pens, these should be brought in with you. We take a minimal approach with low-waste. Aside from any catering agreed within your programme, we will provide water glasses for your crew.

The activities in our corporate programmes including but not limited to our mindful hiking, foraging workshop, highlights tour and access to the bush boardroom table all require group members to have a reasonable level of fitness.
