Absolutely fabulous time. Lots of crafting, lots of time to do own projects and fabulous pack provided to do layouts. Lots of laughs. Super company. Accommodation great, staff at centre are brilliant and the chefs really pulled it out the bag - very careful to cover everyone’s needs and produced top nosh. Lovely bright room. All round fabulous few days. Thank you

My first craft day, bought a project because I didn't know what to expect. Was given 1 page of scrapbook, which took me about half hour. There was a couple of bits i could buy to keep me occupied the rest of the day.6 other crafters there, was very quiet in the morning. After lunch everyone was more engaging, plenty of tea and coffee supplied. I know now if I book again to take my scrapbooks or card making. I learnt a few bits from couple people sitting near me, which I will use.
