For those not looking to take their team away from the UK, yet still considering their bank balance, then Ireland, particularly Dublin, is a popular destination for city breaks. Time it with the Six Nations Rugby (February – March) and you could be in for an extra special weekend. Take a look at the Official Website for next year's line up. Aside from watching the sports, whether it's in one of the many pubs or at Lansdowne Road itself, the city can also offer the Guinness Storehouse, the Powers Court Shopping Centre and numerous art galleries along with a wide range of historical sites to see. If you're tempted, take a look at Aer Arran for flights to Dublin, while you can see more at VisitDublin.com.
If your team is a little livelier, you could take your team away to Newquay, Cornwall for an adrenalin-packed weekend. The Brilliant Weekends website offers corporate weekend packages which should get the fun rolling with activities like surfing, kayaking, and canoeing. There are recommendations to the best nightclubs in the area and you can all stay in a 3* hotel. Obviously, you'll want to sort out a very good travel insurance for this one to keep you all protected from any extreme-sporting mishaps. Look at AA Travel for sports insurance packages – it'll be a worry off your mind. For something closer to home, you might also consider a day at the races for a fun day out with colleagues - you could add to the excitement with your own office sweepstake. Many across the UK are an accessible drive away– Taunton Racecourse is an especially attractive racecourse, largely due to its location, which looks out to the scenic Blackdown Hills. The Racecourse can be hired for all sort of corporate affairs, with restaurants that serve high-quality food. You might want to think about car hire with this one, as renting a large car or van could provide the added bonus of a company road trip. Try Holiday Autos for a variety of vehicles to hire and get you all on the road – this trip will certainly make a change from a bottle of wine!
