We have just had another outstanding Trip Advisor review from a man who describes himself as ‘a hanger on.’ He came with his sister to one of our painting courses recently. We know what he means, but we call the increasing number of spouses and partners who accompany their loved ones on Watermill creative courses non-participating partners, or NPPs. There are VIPs to us, too. And there is plenty for them to do. Even though they do not have to participate in the course, they enjoy the wonderful hospitality of the mill and, whenever they want, come out with their partner to our beautiful locations.
There are plenty of other things for them to do, too: We offer a wide range of Alternative activities for partners onall our courses, as well as a generous £GBP 250 discount if they share a room with the participant. Here’s what the Trip Advisor ‘hanger on’ had to say: “… the Watermill surpassed my expectations in every aspect. the accommodation is definitely 5 star, the staff are all friendly and welcoming and the food was outstanding. On top of it all was the planned excursions to some of the local villages and sites that just were stupendous. I thoroughly recommend staying here.â€
Why don’t YOU join your partner on one of the Watermill’s world-famous creative courses, in painting, writing, knitting and Italian language. A mere a hanger on you will not be!
