Writing Weeks at Glencanisp Lodge
For a week of writing inspiration come for a week at Glencanisp Lodge in the north-west Highlands of Scotland. There are no qualifications required and no compulsory activities, just an opportunity for writers or other creative people to develop their work in progress in a peaceful and stunningly beautiful environment.
Previous visitors have said: ‘I had a wonderful time, thank you so much. I feel refreshed and inspired…’, ‘I adored the peace and quiet, the scenery, the food and the company…’, ‘The best writing retreat in Western Europe…’, ‘What did I write? One new poem every day…’, ‘It was great. Being here allowed me to have insights into how to progress my novel…’, ‘Distance from my normal existence has produced work that I’m proud of, encapsulating some of the magic of this place…’, ‘A lovely house overlooking the most wonderful views…’.
Six weeks are available from 2010 to 2011:
26 June – 3 July 2010
11 – 18 September 2010
30 October – 6 November 2010
6 – 13 November 2010
8-15 January 2011
26 March – 2 April 2011
Any writers or other creative people are welcome on the weeks, which cost £480 per person (June, September) or £420 (October, November, January, March). The weeks run from Saturday to Saturday. Everyone gets a private and comfortable room to themselves, many of which have spectacular views out to the iconic mountain of Suilven or into the mature woods around the Lodge. Delicious home-cooked food is included. A facilitator is on hand to give feedback or writing advice if desired.
To reserve a place on a retreat please send a deposit of £200, cheque made out to 'Top Left Corner'.
