Makers in the Mountains | A five-day elemental & creative retreat in Eryri (Snowdonia), North Wales

Service Description

A five-day elemental & creative retreat in Eryri (Snowdonia), North Wales. Rooted in relationship with the land. Tucked away in a wild valley beneath the mountains of Eryri, join us for five days of creativity, traditional crafts and connection with the land. Working alongside local makers, we'll explore spoon carving, pottery and painting, learning skills passed from hand to hand through generations, rooted in the land, culture and history of this place. At the heart of this retreat is remembering, honouring and celebrating our connection to the land and the elements. Working with wood, clay and colour, we'll explore the simple pleasure of making with our hands, allowing ourselves to become fully absorbed in the creative process, without expectation or the need for perfection. Inspired by the landscape around us, as well as our morning workshops, our days will be woven with wild river swimming, following local trails through the mountains and forests,, yoga, shared meals and evenings around the fire. A chance to slow down, reconnect with our innate creativity and rediscover the joy of making, in relationship with the natural world.
