Our evening with Kaffe Fassett & Brandon Mably was about so much more than the talk πŸ’«

It was a wonderful gathering of people who share a love of colour, textiles and creativity, all coming together in our beautiful Tudor Manor.

There were books to be signed, beautiful fabrics to browse and buy, conversations to be had and plenty of excitement as everyone had the chance to meet Kaffe and Brandon and hear them talk about their remarkable creative lives.

There was such a lovely atmosphere in the Manor that evening, a room full of people who may have arrived as strangers but were united by a shared passion for making and colour.

✨ A very special evening, made even more memorable by the wonderful people who joined us.

Thank you to everyone who came and made it such a lovely gathering πŸ’›

🎨✨ Looking back on a very special evening…

What a wonderful evening we had with Kaffe Fassett & Brandon Mably at Court House Farm, as part of their 6 day retreat here.

It was such a privilege to welcome these two internationally renowned colourists to our Tudor Manor and hear them share stories from their extraordinary creative journeys, their love of colour and the inspiration behind their work.

The atmosphere was relaxed, intimate and full of creativity, with a wonderful audience who came together to listen, learn and enjoy the evening.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make it such a memorable occasion - and, of course, to Kaffe and Brandon for sharing their time and inspiration with us.

✨ One of those evenings we'll be talking about for a very long time.

Ask our guests what they remember about their retreat and, more often than not, the food gets a mention πŸ₯—

From delicious lunches enjoyed in the garden to beautifully prepared evening meals, morning coffee and, of course, plenty of homemade cake, chef Kirsty makes sure that everyone is wonderfully fed throughout their stay.

The food is fresh, colourful, nutritious and full of flavour - and it's all part of what makes a Court House Farm retreat feel so special.

Because when you're spending your days creating, chatting, laughing and relaxing, there's nothing quite like sitting down to a really good meal.

πŸ’› Thank you, Kirsty, for feeding our guests so beautifully!

🌿 Have you been on one of our retreats?

Then you'll know that the magic of Court House Farm is about so much more than the creative sessions.

It's the beautiful Tudor Manor, peaceful gardens, delicious food, homemade cake, inspiring tutors and the wonderful people you meet along the way.

It's having time to slow down, relax, chat, laugh and enjoy being looked after for a few days.

Many of our guests arrive on their own and leave with new friendships, fresh inspiration and memories that stay with them long after they've gone home.

✨ If you've experienced a Court House Farm retreat, you'll know there's something rather special about it. Tell your friends, if you haven't already, and we'd love to have you back too!

✨ A little time away can do wonders.

Our retreats are about creativity, but they're also about slowing down, being looked after, enjoying wonderful food, beautiful surroundings and spending time with lovely, like-minded people.

Come alone or with a friend, learn something new, relax into your creativity and leave feeling refreshed, inspired and already looking forward to coming back.

🌿 Creativity, connection and a little escape from everyday life.
