Saltwater Creative inhouse workshops - Optional add-on for your stay

If you're looking to get creative with your crew, Saltwater Creative has two inhouse art experiences you can add on to your stay at Country House Retreat.  Choose from a pottery or painting workshop, whilst listening to some dreamy sounds overlooking the peaceful pastures from the Country House barn. 

Clay workshop - $150 per person 

Designed for complete beginners, let our instructors guide you over a two hour session through the basics of clay hand building to create your very own vase or Boobie mug! We want to teach you to slowly drop the expectation for a particular result, to tap into your kid selves, and get connected with yourself and those sitting next to you.  Come, sit, make and create.

This workshop includes:

• 2 hour inhouse workshop including all art supplies and two firings

Paint & Sip workshop - $130 per person

No painting experience necessary, you'll be guided by our instructors step by step to paint your own original artwork. Yes OK you'll be learning how to paint from a reference artwork, but relax - you still get to choose your own colours and create your own unique rendition of the piece. With bottomless bubbles and grazing boards to boot, there's plenty of time to sip on your beverages, groove to some funky music and have yourself a merry old time.

This workshop includes:

• 2 hour workshop and 1 finished 50 x 40 cm artwork and all your art supplies
