Pros

Stunning scenery and great place to see wildlife

Cons

Owners are out of touch and management team were completely useless. The wardens were amazing and incredibly knowledgeable, but all management cared about was money making and poor decision making. Behind the scenes the weddings were shambles (while the bride and groom had no idea!) and most of the time staff were stressed as management didnt care about their staff and would lay people off without warning.

Pros

- Such a beautiful place to work, a great location with gorgeous scenery. - Working alongside a close-knit, friendly team. Highly collaborative too, so great opportunity to build your skills across multiple departments. - Very supportive management - they are approachable, friendly, and always lend a kind ear to any thoughts, ideas or issues you may have - The owners are very involved in the running of the business and make an effort to get to know each member of the team. They are very supportive, friendly, and receptive to ambitions you may have to get involved in other areas of the business/grow your skills.

Cons

- It is a remote location, so having a car and being able to drive (or having a reliable way to get to work) is essential!
