Taking the ‘Bored’ out of Boardroom

Imagine starting off your business meeting in a beautiful and atmospheric meeting space, enjoying your barista coffee and home-baking, while the beautiful soft Scottish light floods into the room through deep bay windows. The best of technology at your fingertips, while the room is as glorious as the landscape that frames it. In between sessions, your team gets kitted out in Barbour jackets and Hunter wellies, ready to venture into Perthshire’s wild and untamed landscape, looking out for local wildlife including birds of prey, roe deer and red squirrels. And because tramping the moors and having creative breakthroughs can work up a bit of an appetite, there’s a myriad of private dining options to choose from.

Here at the Glorious Playground, we’re big believers in the benefits of reconnecting with colleagues in the great outdoors. Whether our gardens are awash with the colours of autumn, the Ochil Hills are dusted with snow, or the pink rhododendrons have festooned our main drive in late spring, our estate offer glorious views in every season. Why not improve productivity by bringing your meeting into the great outdoors – whether it is a brainstorm session on the front lawn, a team-building session on the Glendevon estate in our Defender stretch tent or a conference with bean bags and sofas in Henry Hall– there is no better way to optimise your group dynamics!

There’s nothing like trying something new to bring people together – it’s exhilarating. Our passionate team of country life advocates will have you handling our beautiful gun dogs, flying a magnificent Harris Hawk, catching your own trout for supper, thrashing a 4 x 4 through a river, hitting clay targets at the shooting school or balls on the driving range. We can even create your very own Highland Games experience featuring a roster of traditional Scottish sports you’ll see at Highland Games today, including tossing the caber and tug o’war.

It can all be hungry and thirsty work, so feed your team’s imagination and quench their thirst with our unique dining choices designed to match your meeting or event, indoors or out. From an intimate whisky tasting from the back of a Landrover Defender at Laich Loch, to a Gamekeeper’s Hut feast in the Shooting Lodge and from indulgent Afternoon Tea on the front lawn to grand Gala dinners in our elegant Ballroom – we’re laying the table for your groups’ ultimate dining experience.

A successful corporate event is all in the planning. Which is why our experienced team are with you to understand your objectives together, listening to your needs and collaborating with you to deliver the best event imaginable.
