Scrapfam Retreat | The Woodlands @ Hothorpe Hall

The first weekend in June I spent at a beautiful countryside hotel in the Midlands, UK. A group of 21 of us met for 2 nights/3 days to enjoy s relaxed weekend of crafting. There was not formal schedule to the weekend it was a case of do what you want when you want.

It's such a stunning venue. The dining room/bar/crop room is in this building and then all the bedrooms are separate in a semi circle round the front of the building.


There were 21 of us on the weekend, most of whom I had met on previous weekends before. Rubina organised the weekend and has decided to do one every year.


The beautiful wooded area has lots of slate plates with quotes dotted around the grounds. Some of the quotes are religious but many are from well known figures.



The weather really made the weekend. It was warm and gloriously sunny so it was great to be able to sit outside.


It was great to meet up with friends.



Had a great time this weekend, it was nice to get away from home. 

Happy Crafting!
