Turkish Cruise~Course Testimonials

Neil's Testimonial

"What an incredible experience! My wife and I booked this trip - with no prior experience of sculpture and, to be honest, with a far greater interest in just enjoying a relaxing gulet cruise in the gorgeous Gocek region of Turkey. The gulet and the area both met our considerably high expectations, providing a luxury sailing experience in one of the world’s most beautiful locations... but Kate’s ability to deliver a fantastic course far exceeded our expectations. 

Not only was she able to take two complete novices and have us creating works of art in no time at all, but it was totally absorbing - and a great antidote to the pressures of modern living. 

As well as being educational, Kate expertly facilitated the bonding of the group and in no time at all we went from "mucking about with Plasticine" to singing, dancing, midnight swims ... and more ... (possibly aided as well by a glass of wine or two!) 

All in all it was a fantastic holiday with truly lovely people - where do I sign up for next years trip?"

Jane's Testimonial

"For some of us, sitting on a beach for a week can be an uneventful trial; for others trailing around museums and historical sites can be too much of a good thing. So what a fantastic find this holiday was for me.  

Cruising around the islands of Turkey's turquoise coast on a beautiful boat, whilst learning ~ in a very relaxed fashion ~ how to sculpt. 

What could be better? 

Sitting atop under the awnings, a lovely breeze to make the heat enjoyable, with wonderful scenery all around.   Add to this, lazy afternoons after a delicious lunch, with the boat moored in beautiful inlets.  Here we could swim from the boat, paddle a canoe, windsurf or read a book on the deck.  

Evenings were a delight, with spontaneous music making and dancing, before retiring to our en suite cabins ~ or as I did on the last night, sleeping on deck under the stars. All utterly delightful "

Clare's Testimonial

"Thanks for organising such a fabulous trip!
The combination of sun, relaxation and sculpture - in between swims and reading - worked really well.  And the boat was lovely, with plenty of room for everyone to have their own space as well as sit around and chat together. The whole thing was both great fun and highly inspirational.

Can’t wait to do it all again!"
