You will be amazed at how much you will learn and the materials you have bought will last for many years to come, but even more important, this is your holiday and we want you to enjoy it. We will have this in mind at all times too.

An Attendee’s View
Waterrow Park is the epitome of our annual painting itinerary. This “garden in the valley” has the most welcoming of site owners in Anne and Tony. You know this idyllic setting is where you can unwind and indulge your creativity and see friends you have made over the years.
It was a happy accident that we came here in 2000 to discover an art course being run by Moira Oddy, her tuition rekindled a latent desire to paint again. Also the art group was of like-minded people with different abilities which allayed our fears of being beginners. Moira’s charming son, Kevin Middleton, has been our tutor since 2001 and our abilities have progressed. All mediums are encouraged, but you can pursue your own choice of medium. With Kevin’s expert tutoring your attempts become “masterpieces”.
