Exmoor National Park sets the ideal scene for this creative short break, where you'll enjoy an introductory journey into acrylic painting alongside an experienced artistic tutor.
You'll spend three nights at Holnicote House in the village of Selworthy, close to Lynton, Lynmouth, and the beaches of Porlock and Minehead. With full-board accommodation, you can savour hearty breakfasts, packed lunches, and three-course evening meals, leaving you free to immerse yourself in your art. A welcoming cream tea on arrival offers the perfect moment to settle in and meet your fellow painters.
Across two days of workshops, you'll explore acrylic techniques, build confidence, and express your creativity with guidance from your expert tutor, focusing on landscapes and wildlife.
Set in an area celebrated for its walking routes, the moors may reveal red deer, Exmoor ponies, and a rich variety of birdlife. For independent exploring, the Discovery Point provides maps, route guides, and easy resources for self-guided walks.
Arrive at your country house hotel this afternoon and enjoy a complimentary cream tea on arrival.
Begin your crafty holiday with your first painting workshop. Today is an introduction to the materials and tools you'll be using to create your artworks. With demonstrations from your tutor, you'll take the landscape as your subject and begin to put brush to canvas.
Building on yesterday's introduction, today you'll turn your focus to a new subject - wildlife. Combining tutor demonstrations and practical application, delve deeper into the fabulous medium of acrylics.
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast this morning, before checking out and making your way home.
