Arundel, West Sussex – 15 January 2026
As businesses continue to adapt to ever evolving working environments, organisations across the UK are placing increasing importance on team wellbeing, connection and work-life balance. One growing trend supporting this shift is the rise of team retreats, which offer space away from the office for collaboration, reflection and renewed focus.

With industries evolving in 2026 and hybrid working becoming an important part of this, companies are recognising the value of stepping outside traditional work environments to strengthen relationships, encourage creative thinking and reduce burnout. Purpose-led retreats combine structured meetings with shared experiences, helping teams return to work feeling re-energised and more connected.

“At Avisford Park Hotel, we’re seeing more organisations seek out environments that allow teams to balance productivity with wellbeing,” said Siu Mok, General Manager at Avisford Park Hotel. “When teams have space to connect, the impact on morale and collaboration is incredibly powerful.”
Set within 89 acres of West Sussex countryside, Avisford Park Hotel offers a range of meeting spaces alongside leisure facilities, providing an ideal backdrop for corporate retreats that blend business with relaxation.

Avisford Park and Lodge Hill Centre Partnership
To support this growing trend, Avisford Park Hotel are excited to announce a partnership with Lodge Hill Centre, an outdoor activity centre that focuses on enriching lives through adventure and outdoor education.
“Strong teams are built through shared experiences, not just shared tasks,” said a spokesperson for Lodge Hill Centre, Arundel. “Working in partnership with Avisford Park Hotel allows us to encourage businesses to think differently about how and where teams come together, and how meaningful time away can strengthen performance in the long term.”
