Maximising your conference dollar: Brinkley Resort
Methven is renowned for being the gateway to New Zealand’s best ski field. While that’s true, the Alpine heartland village also has other enticing activities on offer to enjoy during downtime from a conference or special event.
The award-winning new Ōpuke Thermal Pools are only a short walk from the Brinkley Resort and Conference Centre. For more high-octane activities, Brinkley can organise jet boating, hot-air balloon experiences, and clay target and archery team-building activities through their partner tourism operators.
“The conference centre is very versatile,” says the resort’s general manager Paul Creswick. “It can be set up in numerous configurations and subdivided into three separate rooms with soundproof partitions with cathedral ceilings and underfloor heating.”
The venue can host anywhere from 10 to 110 delegates. Facilities include an electronic whiteboard, sound system with wireless microphone, Sony data projector, flip charts, photocopying and a printing service. On-site catering in Shackleton’s Restaurant, and accommodation in the Qualmark 4-Star self-contained apartments have you covered for every requirement.
At Brinkley, the team is conscious your conference dollar spend is important in this economic climate. They guarantee you will receive 100% professional support to achieve this in a safe community environment for your delegates, only one hour from Christchurch International Airport.
