Something special is happening here this September, and a few extra spots have become available!
For one week, our 14th century priory becomes a home for making art, slowing down, and reconnecting with your creativity. Six nights in the French countryside near Poitiers with artist Ally Bryan.
Aside from learning simple, expressive techniques, you’ll also make your own brushes and creative journal.
Your week will also consist of medieval village visits, a morning at a French brocante, vineyard visits and tastings, sunny walks through the sunflowers, and long seasonal dinners with local w**es.
No experience needed. Just a love of creating and the desire to give yourself the time. Your concertina art book will grow page by page, turning into a keepsake to take home.
17 to 23 September 2026. From £1,430. Payable in Euros or Pounds.
With transfers to-and-from Poitiers included, and flights from Stansted to Poitiers currently running from £29.99, getting here couldn’t be easier.
Full details and booking available at the link.
