It’s finally Springtime, but work is ramping up, and Spring Break seems to be for the kids…luckily, Normandy Farm in Blue Bell has the best solution.

You’ve heard of Vacation: an extended period of leisure and recreation, especially one spent away from home or in traveling, and you’ve heard of Staycation: a vacation spent in one’s home country rather than abroad, or one spent at home and involving day trips to local attractions, but do they have the answer to getting your work done while simultaneously relaxing?

Enter the Workcation, the purest form of working remotely. All that is needed for a workcation is technology, a laptop, and an internet connection, and Normandy Farm supplies the comfortable stay with great food while you’re working. Working vacations aren’t a new concept, but the pandemic accelerated the rise of logging in remotely.

When you arrive, there’s free parking, so make check-in that much easier.

Then ensconce yourself in a well-appointed guest room or one of the suites in the houses on the grounds.

The hotel itself has 141 exquisitely appointed King and Double Queen hotel rooms and suites. In-room amenities include free Wi-Fi, Starbucks coffee, coffee maker and accessories, in-room cable, multiple USB outlets to charge devices, work areas, and more.

Two people can comfortably work with one at the desk and another in the sitting room, with room for Zoom meetings and a super-high-speed internet connection will ensure your meetings run smoothly.

At Normandy Farm, start your day with a healthy breakfast. The breakfast buffet in the Farmer’s Daughter is set up for maximum ease and is so very tasty, and there will be coffee…lots of coffee!

If you need a fresh perspective, head over to the library, off the lobby to work. Don’t forget to check in with Normandy’s front desk for any needs or recommendations during your stay.

When lunch rolls around, the on-site restaurant Farmer’s Daughter makes lunch super easy to meet with your team or to have some time to yourself.

If your Workcation includes your whole team, Normandy Farm is the place to go.

With over 30,000 square feet in 17 separate meeting rooms, Normandy Farm features comfortable conference space, numerous breakout rooms, a fully-equipped business center, comfortable lounges, service areas, and all the audio and visual equipment you require.

Work, it isn’t all work and no play, Normandy Farm has top-notch teambuilding activities like axe-throwing, culinary classes, murder mystery events, and equine-assisted learning teambuilding.

The hotel’s garden level features a beautiful indoor swimming pool with a jacuzzi and a newly renovated 24-hour fitness center with treadmills, ellipticals, and free weights. The main hotel wing is ADA-compliant, with five rooms designated for those with physical challenges.

When you need a break, group fitness classes, the fitness center or the pool are great ways to break up the day, as well as getting out and exploring Blue Bell- Merrymead Farm is nearby where you can explore the farm shop and animal area.

Based on these criteria, a boutique venue may be perfect backdrop to your remote working days.

Their family-owned, award-winning hotel and conference center will not only provide you the simple traveler needs, but over-the-top service from the moment you enter the White Wall.

From farm-chic guest suites to whimsical dining to countless area activities for exercise, entertainment, and to unwind, we have no doubt that you’ll receive the delicate balance of business and pleasure during your stay.

Normandy Farm has upcoming events to stay for as well:

Easter on April 17 and Mother’s Day Dining on Sunday, May 18, along with the Terrace Opening Party at “the farmer’s daughter” on May 12, 6-9 PM.
