Booking :
Choose your preferred retreat and option for taking part. Check out to pay an early-bird, non-refundable deposit and confirm your place. Early-bird deposits are available until 30 September 2025, after which time deposits will increase.
The balance of your booking will be invoiced directly in two equal instalments. The first will be payable by 3 April 2026 and the second will be payable by 24 July 2026.
If you would prefer to pay in full or over more than two instalments, this can be arranged. Please let me know when you book.
Important information :
If the retreat sounds perfect for you, there are a few things to note before you book:
Deposits are non-refundable.
You'll need to bring your own sewing machine and equipment to spend the weekend working on your chosen project(s).
Accommodation will be an en-suite room for single occupancy. Please get in touch if you plan to bring a partner or share a room as costs may vary as a result.
After you've unloaded your car, some parking spaces will be provided at an adjacent public car park with reimbursement from the hotel.
Please note that evening meals are not included.
Places are limited and bookings will be taken on a 'first come, first served' basis.
In case of cancellation :
If I have to cancel the retreat, a full refund will be provided.
If you need to cancel, for any reason, your deposit is non-refundable. If the cancelled place is re-booked by another quilter, your instalment payment(s) will be refunded.
Alternatively, you can arrange to transfer a cancelled place to another quilter but arrangements must be agreed with me at least one week prior to the retreat.
Once the retreat is sold-out, I will keep a waiting list. Places that become available will be offered on a 'first come, first served' basis.
