Barnet Hill
While it is primarily a conference and training centre, Barnett Hill’s picture-perfect setting lends itself just as readily to corporate entertaining. The well-kept Queen Anne-style mansion, set in 26 acres of landscaped gardens and woodlands just outside Guildford in Surrey, is the smallest venue in the Sundial Group portfolio. It eschews cool functionality for a warm country house feel that has attracted a loyal corporate following. Careful decoration ensures that the individual style runs throughout the 16 meeting rooms and 56 modern bedrooms, which feature nice touches like toiletries by The White Company, iPod docking stations and flat-screen TVs. Group leisure options range from a croquet lawn and volleyball court to walks and trails in the extensive grounds. Other pluses include Sundial’s cost-effective teambuilding programmes, admirable green initiatives and new all -inclusive meeting packages.
