to guitar retreats. Our retreats give you the time and space to indulge your passion for playing guitar, without all the usual interruptions and distractions found at home.
The weekend retreats, based in a stunning location in North Cornwall, are aimed at budding guitarists who want to improve their playing skills and increase their confidence in a relaxing, supportive and inspiring environment.
The retreats run from Friday evening through to Sunday afternoon and cater for a maximum of 10 people. The weekend activities include group sessions, one to one coaching, as well as the opportunity to spend some time alone. You will be shown different methods and techniques and some basic theory, together with plenty of tips and tricks to help you sound like a pro! Throughout the weekend you will be encouraged and guided to get the most from your guitar playing.
On the Saturday evening there is an opportunity to put into practise what you have learnt during the day in an organised jam-a- long-a-singsong! This is often the highlight of the weekend for many people. Don't worry, there is no pressure to perform if you don't feel inclined to; the evenings are designed to be fun and inspiring and can provide the motivation needed to continue practicing alone when back at home.
If you just can't seem to find the time, energy or inspiration to play enough at home, even though sometimes it's the only thing that you really want to do, then you need a Guitar Retreat!

Next year we are introducing some different types of retreat including our first of the year ( Back to Basics )dedicated to beginners and those who want a refresher on the basic skills and techniques needed to take their playing forward. Also we have had several requests for a retreat focusing on songwriting for guitar players. So we are very pleased and excited to announce a weekend for all you budding songwriters out there!

My name is Stuart Marshall and I run the retreats with the help of my wife Sharon. I have been involved in the music business in one way or another for over twenty years; as a musician, producer, teacher, singer songwriter and performer.

I love music of all genres, but I particularly enjoy guitar-based music. There is always something more to be discovered from this incredibly versatile and expressive instrument.

Just to say thanks for a great weekend and meeting you all. You were all great company and nice
to know there are guitarists out there with similar skills to mine! - Jeff Sacree
