By Megan – Hair & Skin Experts, Linden An excited team of 8 staff members set off from Linden to Dullstroom on Sunday morning for a fantastic team builder weekend away, including a workshop with the iconic Trevor Conn. On arriving in Dullstroom our first stop was Harries Pancakes and from there we headed to gin and whiskey tasting. Both were great world class experiences. After which we headed out to Cpirit Country Haven, owned by the dynamic team, Trevor and Sue Conn. The lodge is breathtaking – we stayed in the Barn, complete with log fire in the lounge and a coal stove in the kitchen/dining area. This beautiful self-catering accommodation is the ideal set up for a team building workshop. Trevor Conn did a workshop with us covering hair, makeup and a photo shoot. The team learnt a lot and had tons of fun doing so. I cannot begin to explain the amazing weekend had by all. The only thing I would change is to have had one extra day there, as we would have loved more leisure time to explore the farm.
