An untutored writing retreat in the heart of Shropshire's countryside 

Untutored retreats provide a great opportunity to kick-start a project; to move writing on; or simply to get something finished! Meal-times form the only formal structure of the day where ideas, inspirations and even frustrations can be shared with fellow writers.

What to expect:

- a peaceful, stunning location with  landmark views
- Accommodation and all meals are included in the price (excludes alcohol)
- hosted by a writer
- a small group (no more than 5)
- a comfortable writing room where you can work in the company of other writers
- take walks in the local wood and along the Shropshire Way straight from the farmhouse
- free parking/ free collection from Yorton train station (a ten minute connection from Shrewsbury train station)
- the writing retreat runs from 3pm Tuesday 13th February - to 11am Friday 16th February 2024

Double- shared bathroom (farmhouse) £380
