Your place on our January 2025 tutored writing retreat gives you a place to write in the way which suits you - alone or in a group; following a retreat schedule or pursuing your own plan; with support from your host or working independently. 

The retreat runs from Monday to Friday (4 nights) and your accommodation will be in one of our spacious, ensuite bedrooms with a desk at which to write if you choose to. Workshops and one-to-ones take place daily, and throughout the week you will have access to the group writing table, our lounge writing space (with a view over the valley), your bedroom writing space and, of course, our extensive garden and grounds where you might discover your own place to write. We provide writing tools and equipment to help you work, and you can draw on our extensive library to inspire you too. 

All meals are included and cooked for you: we provide a full breakfast menu, a buffet lunch and a home-cooked hot evening meal plan. Packed lunches are available if you wish to venture out on an activity or local walk or climb at any time. At breaktimes we offer a selection of biscuits and home-baked cakes with as much coffee, tea and juices as you can drink. All meals are either vegetarian or include a vegetarian option. Other diets, and all common allergies, can be catered for. 

 If you travel to us by train, we provide a free pick up and return service to Chirk Station - the train arriving around 2.50pm each day is a perfect fit! 

 Why not invite a second person to join you? We will not ask you to share with anyone but if you have a partner or friend who would like to come too, sharing a room with you, our superior and standard rooms can be arranged with a double or twin beds as required (our specially discounted second person supplement applies).
