Creative Writing Wellness Retreat in Sun-Drenched Halkidiki, Greece

This is more than just a writing retreat; it's a transformative experience designed to help you rediscover the joy of putting words on a page. Led by award-winning authors Jane Flett and Victoria Gosling, you'll participate in five brand new workshops that cover everything from generating new stories to honing your craft. Each day is thoughtfully structured to include dedicated writing time, collaborative sessions, and plenty of opportunities for rest and rejuvenation.

The retreat takes place at the beautiful Anna Karra Studios in Vourvourou, a hidden gem on the Sithonia peninsula. The studios are nestled in a lush garden of olive trees, with direct access to a golden sand beach and crystal-clear turquoise waters. You'll have your own private space to write, reflect, and relax, while the communal areas provide a warm and inviting atmosphere for group activities and socializing.

Our philosophy is simple: write, workshop, sunbathe, swim, eat, drink, talk, and repeat. We believe that creativity flourishes when you're relaxed and happy. That's why we've created a retreat that balances focused writing time with the freedom to explore the stunning natural surroundings. Whether you're lounging in a hammock, kayaking to the nearby island of Diaporos, or sharing stories over a glass of wine at a local taverna, every moment of this retreat is designed to nurture your creative spirit.
