			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Wherever you go these days you are asked to fill in feedback questionnaires.</p>
<p>We have no idea what use they are to other people, but to us they are very important.  They enable customers to get any issues off their chest, they help us to be sure we are somewhere close to target on satisfying their needs and they enable us to elicit recommendations from satisfied clients.</p>
<p>Last, but by no means least, they help us understand what we can do better to meet customer expectations and continually improve our client experience.   </p>
<p>That&#8217;s what it means for us, but we would like to hear how you view feedback questionnaires – what do you see as valuable feedback, how do you put that feedback to good use,  how do you elicit your feedback?</p>
<p>We would love to hear from you!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is very easy to see why High Trenhouse truly is a <em>‘Different Kind of Venue’</em> and has such a great level of popularity amongst businesses. During December 2009, the National Skills Academy Process Industries held a two-day team-building event at High Trenhouse set in the heart of the magnificent Yorkshire Dales National Park.</p>
<p>The relaxed environment, away from everyday interruptions was invaluable to us and we came away feeling that we had achieved a truly memorable team building event and more importantly for us, achieved our objective of improving communication between colleagues.  </p>
<p>Throw in some healthy competition, a picturesque setting, excellent food and great outdoor activities and you have a recipe for a highly successful team-building event. High Trenhouse certainly delivered on all of these areas and we look forward to hosting more events with them in the future. <a rel="attachment wp-att-574" href="http://www.high-trenhouse.co.uk/blog/?attachment_id=574"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-574" title="National Skills Academy Process Industries" src="http://www.high-trenhouse.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/NSA_ProcessInd_RGB1-150x150.jpg" alt="National Skills Academy Process Industries" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Malham Moor and the surrounding area is wonderfully rich in natural history.  This wealth stems from the climate and the geology – the limestone laid down beneath ancient seas and capped by sandstone deposits, raised up, fractured by fault lines and scoured by glaciers to form the watershed of our modern rivers.  In the ice ages glacial melt wore deep valleys now often left dry as the hydrology seeks underground ways.  The relic gritstone caps shape the profile of the highest hills, manifesting in craggy edges as well as in erratic boulders abandoned by the retreating ice.  The rich variety of landscape thus formed results in diverse habitats.   </p>
<p>Land adjoining High Trenhouse, including Malham Tarn estate,  is owned by the National Trust.  The estate supports a centre run by the Field Studies Council, which, while enabling young students to learn from nature, also offers public courses that help people appreciate this wonderful area.  Malham Tarn is a designated Ramsar site – a wetland of world class significance, largely because of its particular juxtaposition of calcium rich waters and acid peat bog – a combination that creates unique ecosysytems.  The whole area is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).  </p>
<p>It is perhaps for birds that the area is best known – from the peregrine falcons nesting at Malham Cove to the characteristic ground nesting birds of the uplands – pewits, skylarks, curlews and oystercatchers that fill the summer air with sound – plus all the migrants that seek out this rich landscape.  Others find delight in the flowers of the limestone pastures, on the tarn moss and fenlands, in the secret gardens in the grikes of the limestone pavements, or the rare species found on the upper slopes of Penyghent &#8211; and all the butterflies and insects in symbiotic relationship with them.</p>
