Whether you stay self-catered or catered (the bookings secretary can put you in touch with local caterers), Cholwell Hall's facilities make it exceptionally appealing to large groups. The impressive grand dining room has space to seat up to 30 guests for a celebratory meal; whilst the lounge is huge making it perfect for a pre-dinner drink in front of the roaring centre fireplace, and after-dinner entertainment with game tables for football, tennis and pool (there is even a karaoke machine!). Two kitchens ensure everyone can muck-in and help when it comes to meal-times and the main kitchen also has a table and chairs ideal for more casual meals or children's dinners. There is an acre of grounds for relaxing and having fun when the sun shines so plenty of room should you want to organise games such as gladiator or bungee-run with local companies.
You could happily spend a day or two exploring the Georgian city of Bath or head south to another one of Somerset's fine cities, Wells with its impressive cathedral. For those who like being outdoors, the Mendip Hills is one large outdoor playground and perfect for outdoor pursuits; whilst Wookey Hole Caves, Cheddar Gorge and Chew Valley Lakes are sure to hold appeal for all ages and energy levels. The local area also provides the opportunity for quad-biking and paint-balling if you are seeking adventure, as well as spa treatments for those who are in need of pampering.
For those who want to venture further afield, Cholwell Hall is within driving distance of world-famous Stonehenge, Longleat with its impressive house and wildlife park, The American Museum, Glastonbury with its famous festival, the Somerset Levels and Clarks Village for some retail therapy.
