Workshops run every Wednesday from April until October This weaving workshop isn’t just an activity – it’s a genuinely immersive, slow-living experience that you won’t find anywhere else in the area. Led by a crafter/weaver from Prickly Thistle Mill, the workshop blends traditional weaving techniques with mindful creativity, giving guests the rare chance to properly switch off, learn a new skill, and create something meaningful with their own hands. Set in a calm, welcoming space, this is an intimate, hands-on session rather than a large, commercial class, with expert guidance tailored to each participant, whether you’re a complete beginner or quietly creative. You’ll leave not only with a beautiful woven piece, but with a deeper appreciation for craftsmanship, heritage, and the simple joy of slowing down – something truly special and hard to find locally.

Fire dancing is a beautiful performative art that allows developing creativity through physical movement. Fire manipulation and even just being with an element of fire is really magical and hypnotizing. It engages your mind and allows you to focus. it has really amazing energy. It is a great activity and I could compare it to meditation and mindfulness practice. As a student, while dancing with fire, you'd be engaged and focused. It is doing something very extraordinary which could very positively influence your mental health and increase confidence. Its one of a kind experience you wont find everywhere, so its worth to give it a try!
