Please contact us first to provide you with a list of options. We do not list dates on the website, they are constantly changing, with many groups booking many months in advance.

Are your preferred dates fully booked?

Please ask we may be able to help. Occasionally there are cancellations. We may also be able to add an extra retreat. Email info@quiltretreatuk.co.uk or call 01424 893909 or 07770 347823

Do you want to add a course to these dates?

We do not offer courses for individuals, however we do have a clinic service to provide guidance and inspiration.

We can offer courses for groups. Tell us what courses you want to do, then we will help make it happen. Or book your own tutor to teach while you are on Retreat.
