Writing courses and retreats at Ty Newydd, a historic house in beautiful North Wales

Hello there, 
I'm contacting you with some information about writing courses and retreats taking place in spring-summer 2015 at Ty Newydd; it's our 25th year. 
As a lover of literature, I hoped you might be able to pass it on to people who attend your writing group, or other friends or colleagues who might be interested.

The House 
Tŷ Newydd is a beautiful, historic house on the brink of Snowdonia National Park, just a ten-minute walk from the Cardigan Bay coastline, founded by Gillian Clarke, National Poet of Wales, 25 years ago. It was the final resting place of Lloyd George, Prime Minister of Great Britain during the First World War, and also the home of Clough Williams-Ellis, Wales’ world-renowned architect who created the famous nearby village of Portmeirion. It is your home while you are here, and comfortable rooms and home-made meals await you, in a relaxing and write-friendly atmosphere.

Coming soon in February and March are:
  • Emerging Young Talent for writers aged 16-30
  • Theatre Masterclass with Kaite O'Reilly
  • Poetry and Dementia 
  • Spring Retreat
