team building events
Cantle is a wonderful venue for colleagues to connect with each other at a human level. The open space, fires, and opportunities for walking and talking with each other create an environment where relationships flourish.
Team members usually arrive for lunch on the first day. After ooh-ing and ah-ing at the view they are directed to their bedrooms where they try to guess what psychological insight led them to being placed in a room with a sword, a lamppost, and a fake fur on the bed…
And so the reflection begins. Through theoretical input and crafted exercises teams are led through two or three days of examining the dynamics in their group and the unconscious part each member plays in creating the team culture.
It is not unusual to see four or five pairs of designer shoes hanging on the pegs where the wellies were, as small groups plod off over the sheep field to the loch beyond. There seems to be a trove of answers down at the beach – or at least it is a place to leave one’s hang-ups – because they reappear with their differences resolved or no longer relevant.
The Cantle guest book has many pictures of smiling groups who look like they have been on a journey – their shared experiences in the snug, at the loch, or round the fire pit having equipped them for the challenges ahead.

Cantle has had a really positive impact on the development of my senior management team - both in terms of helping us work together as a high performance team but also giving valuable 1:1 feedback/coaching on individual development needs. I strongly recommend Cantle to anyone looking to step-change the performance of their teams.
