As summer continues, the UK has experienced rising temperatures, with recent highs reaching over 30°C. Warm weather can make us feel uncomfortable and impact our productivity and well-being. At Stockton House, we understand the importance of maintaining a comfortable working environment in our meeting rooms and event spaces. Here are our top tips for staying cool while using our facilities:
Close the blinds to prevent direct sunlight
While natural light is usually beneficial, during warmer weather, it can create a greenhouse effect. The John Wigley Suite at Stockton House is equipped with adjustable blinds to create shade and help you control the indoor temperature.
Keep windows closed during peak heat times
Although it is tempting to open a window to let some breeze in, when it's really hot this can make things worse. Keep windows closed during the hottest parts of the day to avoid circulating hot air. Open windows early in the morning or later in the evening when temperatures are cooler to help maintain a comfortable climate.
Leverage advanced technology to reduce heat
The John Wigley Suite is equipped with cutting-edge technology, including a 4K television, Yealink MVC840 Solution, and Microsoft Teams video call with a 4K Pan-Tilt zoom camera and premium soundbar. These features eliminate the need for heat-generating overhead projectors or large motors, helping to keep the rooms cool.
Enjoy our bifold doors and outdoor spaces
The John Wigley Suites feature bifold doors that open onto our courtyard and patio area, allowing delegates to enjoy fresh air and the beautiful surroundings. Take advantage of our rural Warwickshire setting, offering peace and tranquillity.
Allow more informal workwear for meetings
Relax your dress code to allow light, breathable clothing during meetings. At Stockton House, we understand the need for comfort, especially in warmer weather, and we provide a relaxed yet professional atmosphere that accommodates more casual attire.
Take breaks in The Stampings, our luxurious breakout area
Staying hydrated and taking regular breaks are crucial, whatever your working environment. At Stockton House, you can upgrade your room hire package to include access to The Stampings, our luxurious breakout area. Situated in the heart of the property, delegates can enjoy a bean-to-cup coffee while relaxing on comfortable sofas and taking in the views of our beautiful grounds—a perfect way to break up the day.
Take advantage of our fully air-conditioned rooms
The John Wigley Suite is fully air-conditioned, ensuring a cool and comfortable environment throughout the day. Whether you’re hosting a meeting or event, you can rely on our facilities to keep you and your delegates comfortable.
