conferences

Forrest Hills is an attractive rural venue for meetings, training events and small conferences.  Our aim is to provide a relaxed setting with woodburning stoves, informal seating (though formal boardroom, classroom or theatre can be offered), kitchen area, outdoor seating area but with all the necessary amenities such as flip charts and pens, data projector and screens and internet access. We try to manage our lodges sustainably in line with our environmental values and policy. They were built to our design by local craftsmen and incorporate recycled materials such as oak beams, paving hearth slabs and ‘bostin’ stones from our old cow shed, and a wooden floor from a nearby mill. More details of how we manage the lodges sustainably and how you as a customer can help is in the following document. Meetings at Forrest Hills

We provide tea and coffee making facilities (Rainforest Alliance certified products supplied by Atkinsons of Lancaster), homemade biscuits, juice and water. A home-cooked hot or cold 2-course buffet lunch is provided using in-season produce from Forrest Hills including eggs, apples, honey, summer fruits, vegetables and salads together with pork, lamb and beef from nearby Conder Green farm. BBQs can also be provided.
