TESTIMONIALS
“My team had the pleasure of attending an away day at Wicklow Escape. It was magical. Gorgeous food, very relaxing, we did yoga in the morning and had a hike in the afternoon. We really enjoyed the experience, and it was a great way of bonding the team. I think it would work great also as a reward after an intense period of work because of the restorative nature of the events. I would highly recommend.”
Blanaid, SIRO
“We recently had business meetings and team-building at The Wicklow Escape. Our group of 12 stayed for 2 days and 1 night, and it was an unforgettable experience.
From the very beginning, Kate took exceptional care of our booking and looked after us throughout our stay. She coordinated everything seamlessly, from our accommodation and meeting spaces to the catering. She also helped us arrange some fantastic team-building activities, including a lovely morning woodland walk, a meditation relaxation session, and an exciting Bushcraft Survival Skills Session.
The venue itself is a unique, rustic countryside retreat set amidst a stunning landscape. The bedrooms were very comfortable, and the hot, powerful showers were a great way to unwind after a long day.
Now, let’s talk about the food – it was absolutely FANTASTIC! Every meal was a five-star experience, with clean plates all around at every sitting!
I wholeheartedly recommend The Wicklow Escape to any company looking for a truly unique and memorable experience. It offers a refreshing change from mainstream hotels, providing an excellent environment for focus and collaboration while feeling like a step away from the corporate grind.
Thank you, Kate and the entire team, for making our stay great.”
