Writer's Retreat

Just you and your words

No Internet or wifi. No TV. No partners, children, spouses, work colleagues or other irrelevancies. No distractions at all. Just a PC or a notebook and your ideas. A real opportunity for you to make progress on your writing in the company of other committed writers. There is room for 14 writers – each with a single room – on this course. Domestic arrangements are the same as for our other courses. The all-inclusive cost is £385.

Tutors
You and your writing

There are no tutors for Arvon's special Writers Retreats. Instead, you will find a relaxing writing home, set in the beautiful landscapes around this historic house. This week is all about you and your writing - you set the rules! We won't interrupt but we're here to help and will set the cooks off at 4pm as usual. Sometimes writers on our retreats run readings in the evenings. You only have to take five days off work. You might finish that novel, those poems or that short play you've been working on.

This course is based at:
