Team Building
& Away Days

 

A hundred acres of ancient woodland, open lawns, a walled garden, a formal courtyard, and a team whose instinct is to say yes. Rockhill House gives corporate groups the space, the setting, and the support to build a programme that people will actually remember.

Whether your idea is well-formed or barely a sketch, we would love to hear it. However unusual it might seem, we have almost certainly found a way to make it happen.

The Setting

Vast Possibilities.
One Extraordinary Estate.

 

There are vast possibilities for programming corporate away days here at Rockhill. The 100-acre woodland estate provides natural space for outdoor activities of every kind, while the house itself offers the rooms, the character, and the atmosphere that make an indoor programme feel like more than a meeting.

We work with a network of key partners to provide activities and entertainment ranging from clay pigeon shooting on the lawns to participative theatre productions on the estate grounds. From the obvious to the entirely unexpected, we will find a way to build it into your programme.

However unusual or unlikely your idea might seem — we would love to discuss it, and we will get to work on making it happen.

On the Estate

Activities & Experiences

The activities below are all available on the estate grounds and can be built into a half-day, full-day, or residential programme. All can be arranged in advance — simply tell us what you have in mind.

On the Lawns  ·  Partner Activity

Clay Pigeon Shooting

A classic country estate activity and one of the finest natural ice-breakers for a corporate group. Professional instruction provided for all abilities — no prior experience required. Competitive enough to be engaging, relaxed enough to include everyone. A perennial favourite at Rockhill and a natural opener or closer to an away day.

Estate Grounds  ·  Partner Activity

Participative Theatre

Immersive and participative theatre productions on the estate grounds — one of the most distinctive team-building formats available anywhere. Working with experienced theatre practitioners, your group creates, performs, or participates in a production tailored entirely to your theme or brief. The estate’s woodland, lawns, and formal spaces provide a dramatic natural backdrop.

Ancient Woodland  ·  Estate Experience

Hawk Walks

A guided falconry experience through the ancient woodland with Harris Hawks. One of Rockhill’s signature experiences and consistently the most talked-about by corporate guests. Suitable for all group sizes, requires no prior knowledge, and works beautifully as a group activity or as a free-choice experience within a wider programme.

Walled Garden  ·  Estate Experience

Bee Safari

A guided visit to the estate hives in the walled garden with beekeeper Frank Chaney. Informative, calming, and genuinely surprising for most groups. An excellent activity for a mid-morning break or as part of a wellness-themed programme. Works particularly well combined with a honey tasting and an explanation of the estate’s food provenance.

Formal Lawn  ·  Estate Experience

Croquet & Lawn Games

Croquet, boules, and outdoor games on the formal lawn. A natural way to end a working day before dinner, or to fill the gap between sessions in good weather. Competitive enough to generate genuine rivalry, relaxed enough to involve everyone. The walled garden provides an excellent alternative setting for smaller groups.

100 Acres  ·  Estate Experience

Guided Woodland Walks

Guided group walks through ancient woodland and meadow in the hills above Letterkenny, overlooking the River Swilly valley. An ideal way to open a programme, refresh a group between sessions, or build a structured outdoor challenge into the day. Walking routes of varying length and intensity can be designed around your group’s needs.

The Cellar  ·  Evening Event

Cheese & Wine Tasting

A private tasting in the vaulted cellar of the house — a cave-like space beneath the original 17th-century structure. A natural and memorable way to close a working day before dinner. Ideal for senior leadership groups and client entertainment. Can include a Crolly Distillery whiskey element for a distinctly Donegal flavour.

The Wellhouse  ·  Wellness Programme

Spa & Wellbeing

The Wellhouse Spa can be reserved for group bookings, with individual treatment slots arranged for your party. Massage, facials, and body treatments available. Works naturally as part of a wellness or incentive programme, or as an add-on for residential stays. Combined with morning yoga in the starry temple for a full day of restoration.

Bespoke Programming

Have an Idea? Let’s Hear It.

 

We work with a network of trusted activity and entertainment partners across the North West and beyond. If what you have in mind isn’t on this page, the chances are we can still make it happen.

Cookery workshops, foraging walks, survival skills, storytelling sessions, outdoor cinema, escape room experiences, live music — we have delivered all of these on the estate and are always open to what comes next.

Tell us your brief and your budget. We will come back with a programme.

Half-Day Programmes

A focused activity session combined with lunch or an evening dinner. The simplest format and one of the most effective.

Full-Day Away Days

A structured day combining indoor sessions, outdoor activities, and an evening dinner on the estate. The most popular corporate format at Rockhill.

Residential Programmes

One or two nights on the estate, with a full programme across the duration — business sessions, activities, dining, and social time built into a cohesive experience.

Incentive Travel

Rockhill as a reward destination — an experience-led stay designed entirely around enjoyment, exploration, and the kind of memories that reinforce what the incentive was for.

Plan Your Programme

Get in Touch

 

Tell us about your group, your dates, and what you are hoping to achieve. We will get back to you with ideas, a programme outline, and a proposal. We are also very happy to arrange a tour of the estate before you commit — seeing Rockhill in person tends to settle the question quickly.
