Connection is not a slide deck
It’s time to step away from the script
Analogue Adventures
Why
Most teams now spend more time together on screens than in the same room.
At The Bell, we create corporate retreats for organisations who know that being together in person should not feel rare, indulgent or optional.
What
Analogue Adventures
For teams who crave something more, The Bell presents Analogue Adventures.
Immersive, analogue experiences built around curiosity, energy and shared effort. Less talking about work, more doing things together. Less screen time, more real time.
Movement, nature, creativity and participation replace presentations and slide decks. The experience moves with the season, the setting and the people in the room.
No two are the same, and that is the point. Analogue Adventures are the kind of experiences people remember AND talk about for years to come.
Where
Set within a 16th-century coaching inn in the heart of East Sussex, The Bell is not a conference venue. It is a blank canvas. A playground. A place to step out of routine and step into something unique and utterly extraordinary.
The Bell is layered and lived-in. Ancient timbers, roaring fires, treasures galore, hidden corners and rolling hills of open countryside just beyond the door.
These spaces are designed to be inhabited, not booked by the hour.
Spaces with soul
From the moment you arrive, you are our guest. There is time to settle in, space for conversations to evolve and freedom for ideas to surface without being forced.
We know the most important moments rarely happen in a meeting room, and that trust is not built at a distance.
Break Bread
Food is not an add-on. It is central to the experience.
We cook generous, thoughtful food designed to bring people together around the table. Long lunches. Late dinners. Medieval feasts. Imaginative plates and shared stories.
Food that fuels the mind, nourishes the body, and anchors people in the moment.
Who you are
Leadership teams. Creative businesses. Professional services firms. Organisations at a crossroads.
Some arrive with a clear plan. Others arrive simply needing space. We shape each retreat accordingly. Facilitated sessions, creative workshops, long walks, physical challenge, unstructured time, or a mix of everything.
Every retreat is different, because every team is.
Stay a while
Staying together matters.
With beautifully individual bedrooms and the feeling of living under one roof, overnight retreats change the tone entirely.
When your day begins and ends with each other, conversations breathe and unfold organically. Energy continues. Connection feels unforced and less fragmented.
Discover Analogue Adventures
For the brave and curious.
Because everything is connected.
