"Thoroughly enjoyed the 2 day art course at the Flackley Ash hotel and came away with lots of helpful tips on watercolour painting from Vicki that I can now put in practice at home. Brilliant tuition from Vicki, who took us through several art projects, I think we were all pleased with our finished artwork. I will definitely be returning at a later date. Fabulous food and accommodation at the hotel too. "

"A very enjoyable two day course. Learnt many new water colour painting techniques. Produced several nice paintings, two I particularly like very much. Painted in a whole range of styles which was a great experience. I loved how Vicki was able to correct / recover mistakes I made so that progress could be maintained. This was a very useful lesson to learn and apply. A lovely setting and a very nice group of people to spend two days together learning to paint in water colours."

Arty Party Breaks and lessons responded:

"It was a pleasure teaching you and I’m so glad you learnt a lot with the water colours. Thank you for your kind words. Kindest regards Vicki"

Deborah reviewed: Watercolour 2 day Art & Spa full board retreat The Flackley Ash Hotel Rye Sussex

"Vicki is an inspirational teacher who strives to ensure each and everyone on her course is successful. With all materials provided, we spent the day exploring different techniques of applying colour to create our very own watercolour masterpieces to take home. Mine are not perfect by any stretch of the imagination but I shall certainly be taking up a new hobby and can’t wait for my art supplies order to arrive so I can carry on my artistic journey! "

Arty Party Breaks and lessons responded:

"Thank you Deborah for your kind words. I hope to see you again 😀"

"This is the 2nd time I have attended a weekend course and it definitely won’t be the last. I cannot recommend it enough. Vicki and Beth are brilliant, the hotel is excellent and the painting is so relaxing and great fun. The course is suitable for all ages and all abilities, including those who have never picked up a brush before. Go with your friends, family, partner or on your own - just book it you will not regret it!"

"Wow I had an unbelievable day!! Thoroughly enjoyable and great way to escape the hustle and bustle and focus on some art. Beth and Vicki are amazing they helped me soooo much and made me feel soooo welcome. I was only a day guest and was gutted to leave. I didn’t want to go!!! I am 100% returning to do a full weekend. Great set up, all the equipment was ready for us, all set out, the camera on a Vicki was a brilliant idea to follow the tips on your art work. When I got home my family and friends were amazed at the quality of the Art I produced. Thanks again and I want to do it every weekend xx"

Peta Proctor reviewed: Painting & Sailing ART retreat holiday in Greece for beginners and improvers inc flights & 7 nights B&B ATOL protected

"I totally agree with the previous review. Fantastic helpful tuition and support, I went on my own but never felt alone as everyone is so friendly. The trips were great and enabled us to see more of the area and paint in other locations. I am planning to go again next year, looking forward to it already."

"This was a birthday gift given to me by my daughter who joined me on this excellent weekend in this beautiful country house hotel. We were joined by a mixed ability group of friendly people for this two day art course. Vicki and Beth were very enthusiastic and gave us much encouragement in producing quick pleasing results."

Merilyn Taplin reviewed: Watercolour 2 day Art & Spa full board retreat The Flackley Ash Hotel Rye Sussex

"I booked this course as I’d become dispirited with my painting. The course is run by two lovely people, in a comfortable hotel with good food and friendly, but efficient personnel. Vicki’s enthusiasm and teaching has reignited my enthusiasm for watercolour painting. It was fun, but very informative and I have no hesitation in recommending this course to all abilities, including beginners. I’ll be returning."

Sarah reviewed: Watercolour 2 day Art & Spa full board retreat The Flackley Ash Hotel Rye Sussex

"The course was the perfect mix of fun, sociable, and informative and the instruction from Vicky and Beth was great. The hotel was lovely with really nice food and helpful staff. I learnt loads and came away with a few paintings to be proud of!"

Christine Robins reviewed: Watercolour 2 day Art & Spa full board retreat The Flackley Ash Hotel Rye Sussex

"Myself and two friends went to the painting weekend recently. I can only say I give it 10 out if 10 on everything. Hotel lovely, food and staff excellent. Vicky is a great teacher, patient and taught us so many different ways to paint. The class atmosphere is fun and we all got to know each other over meals etc. I’m not a natural artist but now have the confidence to paint my way, as Vicky and Beth encouraged us to just paint and enjoy ourselves. I cannot fault the course at all, I just wish it was for longer. We will definitely go back."

Christine Meaton reviewed: Watercolour 2 day Art & Spa full board retreat The Flackley Ash Hotel Rye Sussex

"This course was very enjoyable. It was fun and we learnt a lot. Vicki was a good teacher and Beth was also supportive. We produced a lot of work and even complete beginners were very pleased. The Flackley Ash Hotel is in a lovely location , near Rye, with good facilities and the food was very good. My non- painting husband enjoyed the break too."
