ACTIVITIES
There'll be a range of activities during the week, all of which will be lead by guests, on a skill-share basis. These include Harmony-Singing - easy to learn (no musical knowledge needed), a daily Watercolour session as well as an ongoing Sculpture-Workshop, this year focusing on bass-relief. Although there's no obligation to participate, past cruises have shown that everyone was delighted to dip their toes in - and most to immerse themselves fully.
​
Suggestions for additional group activities are welcomed, this is a collective creativity cruise where everyone's contributions can be enjoyed by all.
One year, for example, involved the collective-writing of a number of stories ~ in the tradition of "Consequences".
6 scenarios were initiated and then circulated daily, added to in secret, with no-one knowing who'd written, (or what had been written) in previous episodes. The resulting stories, read aloud on the final day, were truly hilarious!
A similar idea is currently being cooked-up for this forthcoming cruise. And all other ideas are welcomed.

PAST CRUISE REVIEWS
​
This has got to be one of the most enjoyable holidays we've ever had and we wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone looking for the perfect mix of creativity & relaxation ~ and all on a luxury vessel!
There's time to chill out ~ in heavenly surroundings ~ but there's also sufficient class-time to learn and create. On our cruise it was sculpture that was on offer, mentored by a true artist: incredibly skilled, professional and, what's more: great fun to spend a week with!
I understand that additional activities are now also being offered. What a brilliant idea!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! for one of the most fabulous weeks of my life! And I really mean that ~ it was life changing.
We hope to come back again soon to repeat it.

Thank you so much for organising such a wonderful holiday!
The gulet, the crew, the weather, the great company ~ what more could one ask for. Great too to provide a focus, a common interest for a group of people who’d never met before. It really was lovely!
Thank you!
