Description

New for 2025, Ashley Court Writers’ Society invites you to immerse yourself in a wonderful Regency-era house and its grounds for dedicated time to write, enjoy lunch and mix with other writers.

Arriving at 9.50am with a prompt 10am start, we begin with a brief meet-and-greet and optional warm-up. We then branch off for independent, quiet writing time in a variety of period-decorated rooms. Tea and coffee will be served during the morning, and at 1pm we break for a wholesome vegan lunch of soup (made with locally sourced ingredients) and fresh bread. The day comes to a gentle close around 2pm.

With curios and antique objects thoughtfully curated, experiences to fuel the imagination await you. Discover new inspiration and develop your craft or project in a unique, historical setting.

Come equipped for your method of writing, whether with pen and paper or electronic device. Emergency pens and paper will be available, as well as a limited number of power points.

£30 per person including lunch and tea/coffee.
