Guests come from all over the world where they join with a small group and enjoy a holiday learning, dabbling, and improving on one of the art and craft holidays we offer. From beginners to Picasso’s, they enjoy a holiday with like-minded people doing something enjoyable.

Each week, up to 4 different art and craft holidays are in offer, from patchwork to painting, corsetry to lace making. A guest joins up to 10 others in their class to pursue their own particular interest for the week.

Guests arrive on a Sunday afternoon and meet their subject tutor, selected for their friendly approach and passion for their art and craft.

After a full cooked or very healthy breakfast on Monday to Thursday they head to their workshop, they stop for lunch and dinner in our licensed restaurant.

Every evening all the guests, enjoying one of the four subjects on offer, gather for a varied programme of entertainment.
