I have an opportunity to host a retreat at an amazing location and an incredible price.

The location of this retreat will be at Glenfalloch Station (http://www.glenfalloch-station.co.nz/) - in the South Island of NZ
Here are some images to tempt you

This retreat will run from Friday - Sunday or a Saturday- Monday this winter (exact date to be confirmed but likely to be in June.
It will include all meals and accommodation, photographic and photoshop instruction as well as scrapping. - Your only additional cost will be for beverages and internet costs.
Price will be in the vicinity of $300-$330 all inclusive. ( we have yet to price up transport options to and from Christchurch airport, so I cant confirm exact costs)
I need a minimum of 8 to make this work.
This will be a one off price - we wont be able to do it at this price again so its an opportunity that cant be beaten.

Oh I would so love to do this but I've run out of respite care for DH and I can no longer leave him on his own, even for a few days. Enjoy, people and think of me! :lol:

Oh Jan, that is so hard for both you and DH.
I would love to go to Glenfalloch Station
However, :cry: I broke my ankle while holidaying in Coromandel on 4th April; spent 12 days at NS Hospital and am unsure how things will progress on the mobility scene...
Fingers crossed.
Good luck, Lauren :drumroll:

Lauren - I'll keep an eye on this thread and if anything changes in time for me to book a place, I will. I can't see it happening though. Thank you for asking me. :)

No more replies to this? Or is there a different thread on it now? Disappointing if no one else is interested - it sounds a fantastic opportunity to see a lovely part of the country.

I'd love to but I am doing a class at polytech on Saturday mornings, and doesnt finish until last week in June. If I miss even one class I will be totally lost!
