SUMMER CREATIVE RETREATS @ MUD AND WOOL

Time to reset and reconnect with your creative practice

An unstructured creative environment for reflection, exploration , and personal time

Our summer programme offers creative retreats designed for inspiration, and self-directed making in a rural setting.

Unlike our winter residencies, retreats are not outcome-based. There is no requirement to produce work, leave a piece, or participate in community programming unless you choose to. The emphasis is on creative freedom and reconnection with practice at your own pace.

These retreats are intended for artists and creative practitioners who want time away from everyday demands to think, experiment, or simply be near their work without pressure or expectation.

They are designed for guests whose primary intention is creative engagement and reflexion in a creative environment rather than a holiday stay.

Because the summer period is our most in -demand season, retreat pricing reflects both seasonal demand and the value of exclusive use of the space for creative purposes .

What’s included

Accommodation in a quiet, peaceful rural setting with access to 14 acres with views over to the Cambrian Mountains

Accommodation in a beautifully renovated cottage

Access to our covered barn
