About us

This Elizabethan-style mansion built in 1859 has been lovingly restored to all its former glory. Built within 150 acres of stunning wooded Norfolk parkland, the setting is just as unique as its history. You will never be lost for things to see and do during your stay at Dunston Hall. With a choice of three dining options, there is something for everyone. There is also lots to see in the local area including Norwich Market and Guided Walks around Norwich. You might be here for leisure, to tee off on our renowned par 71 PGA rated course or to relax in the spa and pool. You might be here to take advantage of the fantastic business facilities; let's face it, you're probably here for both.

On Purpose Adventures
On Purpose Adventures

Crossed arms. Poked out bottom lips. Eye rolls. Sighs of displeasure. Mention team building, and you might get these reactions. The thought of another ropes course, forced togetherness or (gasp!) trust falls while keeping your already busy team from their work can create more stress than staying at the workplace. But not with On Purpose Adventures. Your group may need team building (focused on skill development/enhancement) or team bonding (focused on relationship-minded activities) or a combination of both. But whatever the activity, it needs to be facilitated WITH purpose and ON purpose. Most team building programs don’t tie the experience into real-world, job-related application. But ours does. On Purpose delivers team building and bonding with a purpose. Our programs are structured around the way your team operates, and can be tailored to fit your specific challenges and goals. Your team will engage in collaborative activities that build communication, cohesiveness, and enhance skills like collective problem solving, while having fun together. Team building and bonding with On Purpose Adventures brings your team members together in exciting, driven, purposeful activities that make a big impression and generate a genuine team response, keeping them productive and engaged. Skill enhancement happens in a real-life relatable structure, so your takeaways aren’t easily forgotten or lost as soon as the fun ends. Let us help you strengthen your team - on purpose.
