Our Artist Residency is not just for writers or creative writing.

Artists have used their time here to write funding bids, create business plans, rebuild websites, plan workshops, sketch quietly, or simply sit still and listen to what’s next.

We recommend arriving with clarity and specificity so you can make the most of your time here.

Applications are open until 14th September or until all places are filled. We’re reviewing them on a rolling basis, so if this speaks to you, we encourage you to apply sooner rather than later.

You'll receive an email from us to start your application.

Once we've received your application, we’ll take a little time to learn about you.

You’ll then hear back from us within 14 days — if it feels like the right fit, we’ll invite you to book your place where you can pay straight up or through a payment plan.

Please see our Ts&Cs.

We know life can shift. If you need to cancel, we’ll do our best to fill your spot. If we can, we’ll refund everything except the deposit.

We highly recommend digging deep and jumping in with the room sharing, it’s easier than you may think, especially with the curtains for that extra privacy.

However, we do understand that it’s just not an option for some so we’ve partnered up with our friend Sioned who has a spare room on the farm opposite. It has its own entrance, double bed and en-suite.

Get in touch if you’d like to find out if it’s available. from £35/night

Everything here is optional - we want you to have autonomy and agency over yourself. We’ll always check in if it’s fear stopping you and if it is we can help you through if you would like but if it's something else you absolutely do what you need to do.

If you are a non or not a confident swimmer, that is ok. You can still take part in the wild swimming. Many non-swimmers who have attended have come to the wild swimming and walked into the water to a height of comfort for them.

If you have any concerns or fears, speak to Steph in advance or upon arrival and you can fully discuss your level of comfort in the water.

Here's some basics to check off

• Wet shoes/crocs or trainers that you are prepared to get wet are suggested if you're coming wild swimming (they make the walk in kinder).

• Lightweight clothing such as leggings/shorts/joggers, t-shirt/synthetic top/fleece

• Waterproof jacket/trousers (weather depending).

• Swimwear

• Hoodies, jumpers or fleeces

• Walking boots or comfortable footwear for foraging / walking / scrambling (where relevant)

• Indoor studio shoes if you’d rather have footwear on in the studio.

• Hat, gloves and scarf (weather depending)

Consider what you'll need if one set is drying out.

Must haves…

• Bath towel & towel for activities where relevant

• Any special food requirements

• Bottle of water

• Notepad & pen + other working equipment ie laptop.

General suggestions

• Slippers & PJs

• Torch

• Cash for washing machine

We will provide a parcel with the ingredients and recipe for your first evening meal plus the following morning.

On your first evening as a group you’ll need to arrange a delivery slot from a supermarket, most deliver here. You can then organise what you want to stock the kitchen with for the rest of your stay. People tend to love the group cooking, it’s a beautiful way to connect and bond and put the work down in the evenings.

Whatever your needs are, talk to us and we'll work out how we can help.

When it comes to food, we'll cater for any non-flexible dietary requirements in the welcome package (coeliac, allergies, etc.). However, any other requirements will be your responsibility. So, make sure you bring whatever you need with you.

You are welcome to request a certain bunk or room. We’ll always do our best to get you where you want to be.
