 Whether it be for a meeting activity or an away day with the team, Meon Springs has space to meet your needs.  What's more it also has a range of activities and facilitation that you can draw on to maximise the positive results of your time together.

​These facilities can be designed to meet your requirements, whether it be for a sales meeting., board meeting, a training or workshop a quarterly review meeting or any other type of gathering or event.

Our options include:

• The Long Barn - an 18th Century thatched building that can comfortably host up to 50 people.
  
  
• The Stables - A smaller room for groups of up to 15.
  
  
• Woodland Retreat Centre - A place to sit round the campfire and chat.
  
  
• Straw Bale Meetings - Make your own outside meeting space in the fields, by the lakes, in a farm building or anywhere on the farm.

It may be that you just require a room for a few hours or possibly you would like us to offer you catering, such as a working lunch or a more formal Food Event and maybe a sporting activity or team building activity.

If it fits, you may also like to ask us about running one of our Leadership Courses.  


Campfire Meetings
An alternative venue for a meeting is in the Woods at our Bushcraft Centre.  Here, you can sit around the campfire and have a really good informal discussion.  The change of scenery and the uniqueness of the environment will create a whole different atmosphere to the meeting.  It is also a good location to add meeting activities, such as team building games and story telling.
​
Farm Meetings
As part of your meeting, you might like to take an activity tour the farm, which consists of a 400-cow dairy unit alongside arable farming and all the diversified areas that Meon Springs runs.  

And, of course, if you are an agri-centred business, please discuss with us how you might use our farm facilities to meet your meeting and activity needs.

why meet off-site and combine meetings with activities

Although it is usually easier to arrange for you and your team to book the company boardroom to hold your meeting, there are a couple of serious disadvantages.   

Distractions - the rest of the team know that you are on-site and they need their most important problems solved - NOW.  What are they going to do?  Yes, you got it "knock, knock, knock" and the careful "thought moment" with your team is destroyed.

Stagnation -  Many teams spend most of their working life based out of one building.  It doesn't matter how nice that building is, the same familiar scenery will keep the same familiar mental perspectives in place.  If you want to develop something different - find a new place to do it.

And, there are a couple of serious advantages to taking your team off-site for meetings and/or activities.

Establishing occasion.  An off-site meeting establishes a sense of occasion, particularly if it is done well.

This creates a positive and memorable experience that will enhance your messages and development.

Networking meetings - In this day and age, many teams work remotely and don't really get to know each other.  In an off-site meeting, that all changes, making future collaboration on projects much smoother.

ideas for meeting activities IN HAMPSHIRE

To achieve the aim of any meeting, it is important to achieve positive engagement.  And as we all know, meetings can be inspiring or boring depending on the agenda and the state of mind of the attendees.   

One of the big benefits of being away from the office is the uniqueness of the environment already creates curiousity and one of the unique things about Meon Springs is that it is not your run of the mill hotel conference room nor is it the back office meeting room of the factory building.

Indeed, the meeting space at Meon Springs is inspiring and the surrounding "outdoor meeting space" unique for all kinds of meeting activities and also for breakout sessions and combining the meeting with some fun outdoor activities.

For example, why not have a meeting in the morning and shoot a few clays in the afternoon or hire the meeting venue for the day and have a series of meetings, activities, lunch and chill out time.  Meon Springs is on a beautiful farm, which is lovely for just strolling around and becoming present and focused.

Please call us or email us for any meeting or activity requirements.
