Sewing Retreats​

About the Retreats 

Each retreat has a theme - whether that's bag making, dressmaking, quilting or even just general sewing. There are set times for workshops plus additional demonstrations and mini workshops. 

Most retreats include materials, haberdashery and patterns - as well as machines, tools & equipment. You will have the opportunity to choose materials before you arrive and for some projects, pieces will be cut in advance so you can focus on sewing. You also have the option to bring your own machine. 

​

​Accomodation

You will be staying at Kingussie's renovated station building, Railway Rooms - a comfortable boutique hostel with en-suite rooms, a full self catering kitchen & mini galley kitchens and a large social room where we will host our workshops and meals. There is even an outdoor seating area and fire pit to enjoy the Cairngorm evenings. Each participant will receive their own room, choice of double or twin. There is an accessible room and a number of first floors rooms available. 

​​

​meals

Each retreat includes a first night evening meal - provided by amazing local chef Aggie of Heavy Metal Munchies. A continental breakfast and lunches for days 2 & 3 are provided. There is a selection of tea, coffee and home baking available throughout the retreat. 

​

Bring a Pal  

Extra Guests - If you would like to bring a friend, partner or family member to the retreat, you can do this for an additional charge of £150. This includes accommodation and meals only. They will be able to explore everything that the beautiful Cairngorms has to offer, whilst you participate in the workshops.

​

Stay Longer

Optional Extra Night - It may be possible to book an extra nights stay at the end of the retreat - however the venue must be booked as a whole (single rooms cannot be reserved). Please let us know if you are interested in an extra night & we can divide the cost between the number of participants interested.
