Away from the function room, we have lots of fantastic tourism partners that can offer unique and bespoke experiences for your delegates. Why not try a gin making masterclass, surf or sailing lesson, or take a street art walking tour?
Or why not hold your events on bicycles, whale watching on the water, or at a painting class with a local artist? Other adventure-rich experiences on offer are behind the scenes theatre tours, after-dark ghost tours, roaming degustations and beehive tours, for a truly memorable networking experience.
