Welcome to Enclave.Tasmania, a carefully curated  space - a quaint 100 year old hotel in the remote north east town of Winnaleah where you enjoy your very own bedroom and bathroom at no extra charge and where we have a full studio complete with everything you need for your art holiday.  Everything is included except your flights.  We have made sure that you get a day to travel in and out plus a FULL 4 days in workshop mode with Kerri.  

Your own beautiful bedroom complete with luxury linens and a plush mattress topper for the best nights sleep. A light filled studio space complete with easels and boards for your use. Transfers between Launceston (airport or city) and the venue are included as well as daily excursions to a variety of landscapes.  

 Kerri prefers to paint in studio, but there are definitely opportunities to get out and take images to work from (bring the gloves, it's winter!).  At night, we dine in house and can cater to suit all dietary needs. There are beautiful walks surrounding the hotel to truly experience the beauty of the area before or after class or sink into the Chesterfield couches with a wine, whiskey or a hot chocolate by the fire instead.  

 Please note that if you opt for a shared room (twin single beds) you attract a $500 discount. Some rooms are located on the upper level and include stairs, so please contact us if you have mobility issues.  To join us make your $200 non refundable or transferrable deposit by clicking the link above.  We will be in contact 2  months prior to the retreat to collect the balance.

 Please note that cancellation fees apply to all Enclave.Tasmania retreats as outlined below.  We look forward to welcoming you to a wonderful creative holiday.

MEALS  
All meals are included except for one lunch out.  We draw from our local farmers as well as our region for produce and take pride in our meals. We are very used to catering to a wide range of diets, so please make sure you note any requirements. Please note that alcohol is not included and available for purchase on site. No alcohol is to be brought on location.

 CLIMATE  
The climate at this time of year can be cool but very pleasant.  Please bring warm clothes, evenings are cold but the fire places will be burning and there's heaters in every room.

  CLOTHING  
Pack painting clothes and casuals. A good waterproof/windproof jacket is great for when the weather changes and you want to do walks outside. Swimwear if you are keen for a cold ocean plunge or if you would like to book the local ‘Floating Sauna’ nearby. We recommend slippers for inside the hotel as some bathrooms are detached. Painters often find that fingerless gloves are wonderful in the cooler climates when working outside.

 TRAVEL/TRANSFERS
 We pick you up from the LAUNCESTON AIRPORT once everyone in the group has arrived and return you by 11am on the final day.  Please note that unfortunately we cannot offer airport transfers in the event that you decide to arrive early or stay longer at the retreat. We drive an hour and half to reach our venue and there a number of hills and turns. Bring travel sick tablets if you are worried about this.
