What does your team need?

Space to think
Step away from everyday distractions for a strategy session, leadership away day or planning meeting. Combine focused time in our studio with fresh air, walking conversations and lunch together.

Time to reconnect
Bring colleagues together through shared experiences, hands-on activities and proper conversations. A welcoming setting for new teams, remote colleagues or anyone who rarely gets time together beyond the working day.

A chance to recharge
Make wellbeing the focus with gentle movement, guided relaxation, nature experiences or practical nutrition workshops. Add infrared sauna and guided cold water therapy for those who would like to take part.

Something to celebrate
Say thank you, mark a milestone or give your team a memorable alternative to the usual staff night out—with creative workshops, cocktail and mocktail experiences, dining by the river or live entertainment.

So much more than a meeting room

Our spaces give you room to shape the day around your team.

The Studio offers space for meetings, presentations and workshops, with seating for up to 24 in a boardroom layout or 30 theatre-style, plus AV equipment, Wi-Fi, flip charts and whiteboards.

The cosy Nook, characterful Crannog and riverside gardens offer places to gather, eat, create and take a breather. Smaller groups can enjoy an intimate setting, while larger teams can move between spaces and activities throughout the day.

A taste of what’s possible

Working with experienced facilitators and local collaborators, we offer a wide range of experiences:

Wellbeing and restoration: yoga, breathwork, meditation and immersive guided relaxation.
Nature and outdoor activities: Wild Wellness, bushcraft, nature crafts and fireside gatherings.
Workplace nutrition: engaging talks and workshops on energy, sleep, gut health and menopause.
Business and team development: facilitated strategy, leadership, coaching and team sessions.
Creative experiences: mindful art, botanical casting and collaborative workshops.
Fun and celebrations: cocktail and mocktail masterclasses, team dance workshops and live fire entertainment.

Good food and time around the table

Food is part of the pleasure of a day at Lochar Mill. Start with breakfast or brunch, pause for a seasonal lunch, share grazing boards or make a celebration of it with a special dining experience.

Menus can be tailored to your day, with dietary requirements catered for with advance notice.
