THE VENUE: Bulliondale Cottage Retreat Centre,
Avonbridge Scotland FK1 2NQ

We are quite thrilled to be offering this creative writing workshop at Bulliondale Cottage Retreat Centre. Jen Lim is nurturing her plans for future events at the retreat house which is set atop a hill overlooking the village of Avonbridge, immediately surrounded by a wildlife site, a historic stone quarry, and the River Avon. Bulliondale features sunlit rooms, lovely stone-lined decks for contemplation, and paths to walk right out the door.
Bulliondale—as the name implies—is a place of rich resources for mining precious peace, solitude and quiet inspiration. We love word play, so we sometimes also spell it “Boulliondale”, as it also provides a place for mixing the rich broth of creativity with the peaceful surroundings of nature. (One of Jen's retreat-centre concepts is group veggie chopping and soup-making in the big kitchen whilst sharing warmth, ideas and insights).
Please feel free to arrive early for a wee walk before “doors open”, or stay to take one after the workshop.
For more information on the opportunities and events at Bulliondale Cottage, or to suggestion one, contact us whilst Jen Lim is still brainstorming. Leave Message via Facebook's Green Phoenix Productions page.
