In the unspoilt Parque Natural Sierra María-Los; Vélez;, northern Almería;, Andalucía;, this is a retreat for the creatively minded. Should your compulsion be to draw or paint, to exercise any multiple of creative disciplines, we provide the space, time and opportunity to make an art holiday a deeply fulfilling one.

We run a series of art and design courses throughout the year. The ethos of these programmes is to tailor your experience of this environment in a way which allows you to maximise your understanding and creative response. We have designed eight creative courses and full details can be found by clicking on any of the titles below...

The atmosphere for these courses is very much for the guest to bring their knowledge and skills, their passions and enthusiasms to a group of people in an atmosphere of camaraderie and sharing, should your abilities be professional or yet to be discovered.

We are also host to a residency for professional artists, 'Joya: arte + ecología;'. This scheme will give you, as a creative guest, not only the opportunity to hone your own skills but to spend time with a professional artist (often a tutor) to talk art and artists, materials and techniques as well as the experience of being a 'practising' artist.

It's an interview we gave to Ben Curtis and Marina Díaz; who run the Notes from Spain web site and blog from Madrid. It's a fantastic language resource as well as a great cultural guide to this wonderful country.
