Lake District, Cumbria
The Painting – The tuition is a complete 4 days and is very hands on. You will be in a group of no more than 12 guests and all skill levels are welcome.

Occasionally this can be a very hard job for both Brett and I, like for instance Friday night and Saturday we had to have dinner in a sumptuous hotel and then go to the next fabulous hotel for lunch the next day, all in the name of holiday research.

As you will see from our itinerary for next year we have introduced quite a few new locations and destinations for our painting holidays, we have always gone to fabulous places and I don't like rubbish hotels, therefore the hotels have always been good also. But when I'm going back to them year after year even I can get bored with painting the same areas. To this end we found the stunning Swan in Lavenham, a beautiful area. This year we started with our new French destination. And so now after many many years I am going back to the lake district but with new destinations and new hotels.

The Inn on the Lakes, Ullswater is absolutely beautiful with a really old fashioned graciousness to it. With its owns ground rolling down to the lakeside of Ullswater, yummy food and top service, it was really hard  to fault the place. The village of Glenridding itself also eminently paintable .

Langdale Chase, Windermere. This place, quite simply, blew me away. The most gob smacking views imaginable of Lake Windermere. Again the hotel grounds roll down to the shoreline with beautifully kept gardens and little places to explore. All very secluded and private, it was hard to believe you had just driven off the busy A591 and there it was nestling in its own woodland in total peace and quiet. The rooms were a pleasure to be hold and even though we weren't staying there that night after lunch I felt totally chilled out. I must say I'm really looking forward to next year and doing this one.

If were are not careful we are going to be building up a reputation  for ourselves as only luxurious painting holidays because we have a real portfolio of goodies under our belt these days.  To see the photographs taken on the day click this link
