Join Brambles Art Retreat painting in the South of France 2011
at Hamlet of Certes near Toulouse.
Aug 27th - Sept 4th 2011 - A 9 Day trip.
Painting in the South of France, Ariege in August 2011. We teach a broad selection of Media at all levels.
Our painters can work in Watercolour, Drawing, Pen and Wash, Acrylic and Oil. There is plenty time for individual tuition and demos.
It is a beautiful area, interesting locations ranging form rolling landscapes to old building and pretty French towns meandering along the river.

*Fly very inexpensively to Toulouse from Gatwick, Bristol, Birmingham, and Leeds where you will be collected and taken to the lovely Gites.


Hamlet of Certes is a group of thee lovely gites set in a tiny hamlet only 40 minutes drive from Toulouse. It has a swimming pool,
tennis courts, mountain bikes, and a small gym. There is a huge studio that is used as a base for painting. Set amongst an established and well
landscaped garden that entices you to paint around every corner.
We make a day trip to the one of the historical towns of Mirepoix or Carcassonne to enjoy the rich architecture and hustle and bustle of market day.
There are plenty of local towns close by that offer interesting building, riverbanks and all the colourful French scenery we love to paint.
There are lovely walks across the nearby fields and hills. Yoga sessions are available and massages on request.
