Hands-on countryside adventures at Cragg House Farm, near Buttermere
Escape the meeting room and discover a different kind of team day — one that swaps screens for scenery and deadlines for the rhythm of farm life.
At Cragg House Farm, we offer unique, outdoor team-building experiences set in the heart of the Lake District. Designed for collaboration, laughter, and connection, our sessions are perfect for teams looking to recharge, reconnect, and learn something new together.

Each experience is tailored to your group’s goals — whether that’s teamwork, problem-solving, or simply unwinding in nature.
Activities may include:
🐕 Sheepdog handling and communication challenges – watch a demo and learn to guide our trained Border Collies using traditional shepherding commands.
🐑 Meet and feed our friendly rare-breed goats – a calm, feel-good session that brings out everyone’s inner smile.
🧺 Farmyard team challenges – light-hearted problem-solving and countryside games designed to encourage cooperation.
🚶 Scenic fell-view walks and reflection stops – time to enjoy breathtaking views and open-air conversation.
