“Coombe is special - a beautiful hideaway to reconnect with what matters. The warm welcome from Lara, encouragement and support from our inestimable tutor Sarah Bee, sublime soul-food from Tanya, and sharing stories with new faces. Coombe holds a special place in my reawakened artist’s heart”

Definitely worth coming all the way from Canada for this: Coombe is a little piece of heaven. Everything about your stay is beautifully curated. And the food!!! I learned so much, was so relaxed, had such fun, I'm definitely coming back.

What a wonderful week learning the process of drawing with Laurie Steen at Coombe. I learnt so much and grew enormously in confidence. I thoroughly recommend it.

Amazing week of watercolour painting with Paul. Learnt huge amounts in 5 days, ate fabulous food and met some hilarious people. Feel refreshed and armed with some new skills to try at home. Will be back! Thank you Lara and team!
