The Telegraph Ways With Words Festival at Dartington Hall
France (Memoir Writing & Art)
Tuesday 9 – 16 June 2010
A chance to be challenged, creative and thoughtful but also to be supported in an unthreatening, friendly environment.
A chance to meet other people who enjoy books and words.
COURSE VENUE: The courses are run in a big, square farmhouse in the north Dordogne area. It is in a small hamlet just a few kilometres from the market town of Ribérac. The River Dronne is close by. Goats are milked just beyond our meadow and the cheese sold direct. In other words a bit of French rural heaven.There is a big covered barn, an open-sided barn (un préau) an acre of meadow/garden, a swimming pool, a courtyard with lots of deckchairs and tables. Boules and badminton are available for the more energetic.
TRAVEL: Train to Angoulême (45 mins away), flights to Bergerac from Exeter, Bristol & Stansted (45 mins away). Transfers to/from Angoulême and Bergerac will be arranged and are included in the price.
TUTORS:
Art - Rosemary Catling painter, printmaker and teacher. Rosemary has taught in schools and colleges but is now a full-time artist.

Memoir Writing - Cole Moreton - author of 4 books including one volume of memoir, journalist for The Guardian and The Sunday Times, past Executive Editor of The Independent on Sunday.
