An exclusive, luxury retreat set in the heart of the historic city of Bath, celebrating the beauty of the British Fibre Industry.

Room Options: Classic, Suite, Master Suite

Price includes* room for 4 nights at the iconic 5 star Royal Crescent Hotel, breakfast each morning, 2 lunches, 3 dinners including wine, use of the spa, a private champagne reception at the Roman Baths, goodie bag including Walcot Yarns, knitting classes and workshops with Erika Knight, Amanda Jones, Garthenor Organic and The Raw Wool Company, plus much more still to come.

Payment plans are available. Payment will be split into 3 payments: 20% deposit, then two further payments of 40% at regular intervals.

You will stay at the iconic, 5 star Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa, which we will have exclusive access to over the four night stay. This beautiful hotel nestles in the prestigious Royal Crescent, an impressive landmark built between 1767 and 1775 which forms a sweeping crescent of 30 Grade I listed terrace houses, overlooking the Royal Victoria Park. A familiar sight to many, due to its popularity as a location for Film and TV Productions, from classic Jane Austen adaptations such as Persuasion (2022) to The Duchess (2008) and the fantastic Netflix series Bridgerton.

The hotel consists of beautifully appointed bedrooms and suites, communal meeting spaces, restaurant and bar, an acre of gardens and a Spa and Bath House, all yours for the true VIP experience.

You will have a choice of room options available to you. From the Classic rooms, which combine contemporary comfort with elegant furnishings to a selection of Suites, providing a relaxing sitting room adjoining the bedroom area. You can also choose the full luxurious experience by booking the Master Suite. These exceptional suites are brimming with Georgian elegance and five-star splendour with unique and chic flourishes to make them the perfect place to unwind.

Throughout your stay, there will be a selection of workshops from renowned British knitwear designers and tastemakers within the fibre industry. Highly respected designer Erika Knight will lead both a workshop and join us for a cosy evening fireside chat, where she will discuss her fabulous career in the fashion industry developing yarn and designing knitwear for global brands (including Marks & Spencer, Country Road, Woolworths South Africa, Jaeger, Whistles), and her trend forecasting work which reignited her passion for the handmade. We will also be hosting events with Anton Belmonte of The Raw Wool Company, knitwear designer, Amanda Jones and Sally + Jonny of Garthenor Organic.

We will venture into the beautiful city of Bath, where we will continue our exclusive experience with a private evening drinks reception at the Roman Baths. There will be plenty of time to explore the city, its stunning buildings and architecture and all the wonderful independent shops we have to offer (a visit to our own yarn store, A Yarn Story, is a must).

The official yarn sponsor of the retreat is Walcot Yarns, A Yarn Story’s own brand of yarn. You will get the opportunity to work with our stunning yarn base Origin, a 50% merino and 50% Peruvian highland wool blend, and of course, peruse the full brand range.

£3795 Price per person from £3795.
