We have just had two sparkling TripAdvisor reviews for Georgia Farrell’s knitting holiday a week or so ago. Both of the participant have been several times before.
One, from Chichester in England, writes: “This was a return visit and, as on previous visits, it didn’t disappoint (apart from the weather). The course itself, which was led by Georgia Farrell, had just the right balance of tuition, support and free knitting time. Most days there was something special to do such as a visit to the local market in Fivvizzano, or lunch in a delightful small walled hill town, or a visit to Cinque Terre.
”The Watermill itself is a haven of peace and calm. The food is amazing, the rooms are beautiful and immaculately clean and who doesn’t love apéritivi time, not to mention post dinner digestivi? “Lois, Bill and Karsten and their team are brilliant hosts.
”Can’t wait to go back again next year.”
Our second TripAdvisor reviewer come from Antwerp in Belgium and has spent a week with us every year since 2017 (excluding those dreadful Covid years). “It’s been such a pleasureand something to always look forward to. Bill, Lois and Karsten are such wonderful hosts!
“I’ve joined several knitting courses and one Italian language course which were all great fun and relaxing. And the food, especially on the days that Lois is cooking, is just something else to look forward to ! The rooms are lovely and all have air-conditioning. The places we visit each year remain spectacular even after so many times, they are well worth it.“

With large numbers of repeat visits we seem to be building up a ‘family of friends’: no fewer than four people on George’s last course booked in straightaway for one of our 2024 knitting courses. (And one even reserved a place for 2025!)
Here are the details of our 2024 Knitting weeks. Already they are beginning to fill and now is definitely the time to book your place. And don’t forget, if you book now you can enjoy a 2024 knitting week at 2023 prices.
Norah Gaugham and Louisa Harding are currently fully booked for 2024, but there are often cancellations and if you are interested, let us know and we will put you on our waiting list.
