Key Takeaways: All delegates will have access to a report outlining the insights, opportunities and action points that resulted from the retreat – for your own reference and to share with colleagues.
There are 7 Landscape Cabins; 2 Bird Houses (with beds accessible via ladder); and 2 bedrooms in the Writer's Lodge. All are single occupancy.
Each Landscape Cabin (black inside and out) is a masterpiece of minimalist architecture, featuring floor-to-ceiling glass windows that frame the surrounding forests, mountains and river.
Designed to immerse guests in nature while ensuring privacy, the Landscape Cabins and smaller Bird Houses offer serenity and focus. The Writer's Lodge is a more social option with a shared living room, kitchen and outdoor terrace.
