Accommodation

The tutored Adventure is designed for a maximum of ten participants on a single basis, or a maximum of 12 with a mixture of single and shared occupancy. This ensures the optimal level of comfort and attention to your writing from the visiting writing tutor, both in a group setting and one-on-one. The beautiful Casa Ana is our working base for the week. Rooms are sold on a first-come, first-served basis, on a single occupancy priority basis. Please note however that if you wanted to come as a couple, or with a friend, we are able to offer two of the rooms on a sharing room basis should they be available at the time of booking. We therefore recommend early booking if you are planning to come with a friend or partner.
